IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your iron, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions carefully.
2. Use iron only for its intended use.
3. To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse the iron in
water or other liquids.
4. The iron thermostat should always
be turned to its lowest position
before plugging in or unplugging
from the electrical outlet.
5. Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet. Grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.
6. Do not allow cord to touch hot
surfaces. Let iron cool completely
before putting away.
7. Always disconnect iron from
electrical outlet when filling with
water, emptying, or when not in use.
8. Do not operate iron with a damaged
cord, or after the iron has been
dropped or damaged in any manner.
To avoid the risk of electric shock,
do not disassemble the iron. Return
the iron to the nearest service facility
for examination and repair. Incorrect
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
:
wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug
will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do no attempt to defeat this safety
feature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For Household Use Only
reassembly can cause the risk of
electric shock when the iron is
used.
9.
Close supervision is necessary for
any appliance being used by or
near children. Do not leave iron
unattended while connected or on
an ironing board.
10. Burns can occur from touching hot
metal parts, hot water or steam.
Use caution when you turn a steam
iron upside down; there may be hot
water in the reservoir.
11. Never direct steam at any person,
especially when using the iron in
the vertical position. The steam is
very hot and can cause burns.
12. This appliance is for household
use only.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1.
To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
2.
If an extension cord is absolutely
necessary, use a 15-ampere cord.
Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Use care to arrange the
cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over.

• Water tank may be empty or water level is very low.
Iron does not steam
Add water.
• Make sure that the temperature control dial and
the variable steam control are correctly set. For
maximum steam, (setting "Max" on steam control),
temperature control dial should be set on "•••".
• Adjustable steam control is set on "0".
Always allow the iron to reach the selected
temperature with the adjustable steam control setting
at "0". Make sure the temperature control dial is set in
the correct steam area, e.g. "•", and the steam control
is not on "0". For more steam, turn temperature dial to
higher setting, e.g. "•••", and the steam control to
"Max".
• If temperature setting and steam control setting are
correct and there is no steam, gently tap the
soleplate on the ironing board a few times. Move
the variable steam control from "0" to "Max" a few
times.
• Iron may not be hot enough. Set thermostat to the

• Overuse of steam burst. Allow more time between
each burst.
• Iron may have been overfilled. Turn iron off,empty
water and follow instructions for filling.
• Steam performance may be low if iron requires
seasoning. To season, use regular tap water for 1or 2
tanks until steam performance improves.
