Black & Decker IR1160NC Manual De Instrucciónes

•  Remove any labels, stickers or tags attached to the body or soleplate of the iron.

•  Remove and save literature.

•  Please go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your warranty.

•   If ironing dry, place iron on its heel rest on a stable ironing board. (To iron with steam, see

instructions for filling the water tank.)

•  Use scissors to remove the plastic tie lock on the plug of the iron. Uncoil cord and plug into standard

electrical outlet.

Note: When the iron is plugged in, the red power indicator light will

come on and stay on until the iron is unplugged or the automatic shut-

off is activated. (See below for instructions on the automatic shutoff.)

Note: This iron heats quickly. For optimum performance, allow the iron

to stand on heel rest about 2 minutes before beginning to iron.

1. Ensure iron is in the off position.

2. With iron on flat surface with soleplate down, open water-fill cover

(A).

3. Tilt the iron and using a clean measuring cup, pour water into

opened chamber until water reaches the MAX level mark on the side

of the water tank. Do not overfill.

4. Close the water-fill cover.

5. Plug in the iron. The power indicator light illuminates.

Note: If you need to add water while ironing, unplug the iron and

follow above steps.

Tip: If unsure of a garment’s fiber, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem) before ironing.

The automatic shutoff feature in your iron works as follows:

•  Once the iron reaches appropriate temperature, it will turn off after 30 seconds of inactivity if left on

its soleplate or tipped over

on its side. If left vertically on its heel rest, it will shut off after

8 minutes

(B).

•  The power indicator light starts blinking to let you know that the iron has stopped heating.

•  As soon as you pick up the iron, it will start heating again. Wait for iron to reheat completely before

resuming operation.

1. Read fabric labels to help determine fabric type to be ironed.

Tip: If unsure of fabric’s fiber, test a small area (on the inside seam or hem) before ironing.

Tip: When ironing a garment with mixed fabrics, select the fabric setting for the most delicate

fabric. For example, when ironing a shirt that is 65% cotton and 35% polyester, use setting for

polyester.

2. Once you determine the fabric type, turn the fabric select dial at the front of the handle

clockwise to select the appropriate fabric setting.

3. Whenever the fabric setting is changed to a higher or lower setting, allow the iron to stand a

minute or so to allow the iron to heat up or cool down. Test garment by pressing a small hidden

area to make sure setting of iron is correct.

Tip: Iron garments that require lower setting first, then move on to higher setting.

Tip: Use to remove stubborn creases.

1. With the water tank filled to the MAX mark, set fabric select dial to appropriate setting (between

4 and 6) for your fabric. See fabric guide under the heel rest and read garment’s label to help

you determine fabric type.

2. Be sure there is water in the reservoir. Steam is automatically turned off between settings 0 and

3.

3. For best performance, use surge of steam at 5-second intervals.

4. When finished ironing, turn the fabric select dial to 0 and unplug the iron.

Tip: Use for removing wrinkles from hanging clothes and drapes.

1. Be sure the water tank is filled to the MAX mark.

2. Hang the garment to be steamed on a clothes hanger. (Curtains or drapes can be steamed once

they are hung.)

3. Set the fabric select dial to appropriate setting (between 4 and 6) for your fabric.

4. Hold the iron close to, but not touching, the fabric.

5. Pull the fabric tight in your free hand and pump the button as you move the iron over the fabric.

Tip: Use to dampen tough wrinkles at any setting.

1. Be sure the iron is filled with water.

2. On first use, pump the button several times.

The anti drip system prevents water spotting at low temperatures.

1. Turn the fabric select dial to setting 1, 2, or 3 to iron without steam.

2. To dry iron at higher settings, empty the water from the reservoir to prevent steaming.

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed,

including the following:

• Use iron only for its intended use.

• To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or

other liquids.

• The iron should always be turned to the minimum (min) setting before plugging

or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from the outlet; instead

grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting

away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.

• Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying,

and when not in use.

• Do not operate iron with a damaged cord, or if the iron has been dropped or

damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron; take

it to a qualified service person for examination and repair, or call the appropriate

toll-free number on the cover of this manual. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk

of electric shock when the iron is used.

• 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.

• Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam.

Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down or use the surge

of steam—there may be hot water in the reservoir. Avoid rapid movement of iron

to minimize hot water spillage.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,

unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.

 - When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the

stand is placed is stable.

 - The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there is visible signs of

damage or if it is leaking.

• To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the

same circuit.

• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord rated at 15-ampere cord

should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be

taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the

risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to 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 not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

This appliance is intended for household use only.

1. Unplug the iron and let it cool.

2. To release the water, hold the iron over a sink with the tip pointing down and to one side. Water

will empty out of the water-fill opening.

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

Make sure iron is unplugged and has cooled completely. Wipe the soleplate and outer surfaces

with a soft cloth dampened with water. Add mild household detergent. Never use abrasives,

heavy-duty cleansers, vinegar or scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron. After clean-

ing, steam iron over an old cloth to remove any residue from the steam vents.

Tip: To keep the steam vents free of any buildup, follow these instructions about once a month:

1. Fill the water tank well below the MAX line. Plug in the iron.

2. Turn the fabric select dial to 6 and stand the iron on its heel rest. Allow it to heat.

3. Turn fabric select dial to 0, unplug the iron and hold over a sink with the soleplate facing down.

4. Press and hold the AUTO CLEAN

TM

button. Be careful, as hot water and steam will come out of

the steam vents. Continue to hold the AUTO CLEAN

button until all the water has emptied. If

necessary, rock iron side-to-side and front-to-back.

5. When finished, release the button, stand the iron on its heel rest and plug it in. Heat for about 2

minutes to dry out any remaining water.

1. Unplug the iron and allow it to cool.

2. Check that the selector is set to 0.

3. Store vertically on its heel to prevent water leaking from the soleplate.

Lorsqu’on utilise un fer, il faut toujours respecter certaines règles de sécurité

fondamentales, notamment les suivantes :

• Utiliser le fer uniquement aux fins pour lesquelles il a été conçu.

• Afin d’éviter les risques de choc électrique, ne pas immerger le fer dans l’eau ou

tout autre liquide.

• Toujours mettre le fer hors tension avant de le brancher ou de le débrancher.

Ne jamais tirer sur le cordon pour débrancher le fer. Saisir et tirer la fiche pour

débrancher le fer.

• Éviter de laisser le cordon entrer en contact avec des surfaces chaudes. Laisser le

fer refroidir complètement avant de le ranger. Enrouler le cordon lâchement autour

du fer avant de le ranger.

• Toujours débrancher le fer pour le remplir d’eau ou pour le vider, et lorsqu’il ne sert pas.

• Ne pas utiliser le fer si le cordon est endommagé, si le fer a été échappé ou

endommagé. Afin d’éviter les risques de choc électrique, ne pas démonter le

fer. En confier l’inspection et la réparation au personnel d’un centre d’entretien

autorisé. Ou composer le numéro sans frais approprié indiqué sur la page

couverture du présent guide. Un assemblage incorrect peut provoquer un choc

électrique au moment de l’utilisation.

• Exercer une étroite surveillance lorsque l’appareil est utilisé par un enfant ou près

d’un enfant. Ne pas laisser le fer sans surveillance s’il est branché ou s’il se trouve

sur une planche à repasser.

• Les pièces métalliques, l’eau chaude ou la vapeur peuvent occasionner des

brûlures. Retourner avec précaution un fer à vapeur ou prendre garde lorsqu’on

se sert du jet de vapeur, car de l’eau brûlante peut s’écouler du réservoir. Éviter

tout mouvement brusque lors du repassage afin de minimiser le déversement

accidentel d’eau brûlante.

• Cet appareil n’est pas conçu pour être utilisé par des personnes (notamment des

enfants) dont les capacités physiques, sensorielles ou mentales sont réduites ou qui

manquent d’expérience ou de connaissances, à moins qu’elles ne soient supervisées

ou dirigées par une personne responsable de leur sécurité pendant l’utilisation.

• Les enfants doivent être supervisés afin d’éviter qu’ils ne jouent avec l’appareil.

• Le fer à repasser doit être utilisé et déposé sur une surface stable.

 - Avant de déposer le fer à repasser sur son support, s’assurer que la surface

sur laquelle se trouve le support est stable.

 - Ne pas utiliser le fer à repasser s’il a été échappé, s’il est visiblement

endommagé ou s’il fuit.

• Pour éviter une surcharge du circuit, ne pas brancher un autre appareil haute

puissance sur le même circuit.

• Si l’emploi d’une rallonge est absolument nécessaire, utiliser un cordon de 15

ampères. Les cordons prévus pour une intensité inférieure risquent de surchauffer.

Faire preuve de prudence en veillant à ce que le cordon ne puisse pas être tiré ou

faire trébucher.

L’appareil est muni d’une fiche polarisée (une lame plus large que l’autre). Afin de

minimiser les risques de secousses électriques, ce genre de fiche n’entre que d’une

façon dans une prise polarisée. Lorsqu’on ne peut insérer la fiche à fond dans la prise,

il faut tenter de le faire après avoir inversé les lames de côté. Si la fiche n’entre toujours

pas dans la prise, il faut communiquer avec un électricien certifié. Il ne faut pas tenter de

modifier la fiche.
