Even if you have used a steam generator iron before, please read all instructions 
and safeguards in the Use and Care Instruction Book.  In addition, please note the 
following user tips:
USING STEAM
PLEASE NOTE
Steam performance improves after the first 6-8 hours of usage.  
The steam power increases and initial condensation at maximum 
temperature is reduced.
1.
Make sure the temperature setting of the iron is within the steam range on the 
temperature selector. 
2.
Turn power on for iron and steam generator.  Before starting to use steam, 
make sure the Steam Ready Light is “ON”, indicating that steam is available.
NOTE:
Trying to use steam before the Steam Ready Light is “ON” can cause water 
drops in the steam coming out of the iron.
CLEARING THE INITIAL CONDENSATION:
3.  Clear the initial condensation by pressing the Steam Button up to 3 seconds. 
Repeat if necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
4.
While using the ironing system, if steam has not been released for more than 
approximately  5 minutes, the hose has cooled and any steam remaining in the 
hose from the last use might condense.  Clear this condensation by pressing 
Steam Button before proceeding to use the iron.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
5. Replace the boiler filler cap and 
shake.
6. Remove the boiler filler cap and 
empty the tank. Rinse with water two 
to three times by filling, shaking and 
emptying again.
6. Wipe the outside of the steam 
generator base with a damp cloth.
CAUTION! 
NEVER open the 
boiler filler cap before ALL the 
remaining steam has been 
released from the steam 
generator and the steam 
generator has cooled. To 
release the steam, press the 
On/Off button to the “Off”
position and push the steam 
button on the iron until no 
more steam comes out of the 
iron. Then open the boiler filler 
cap slowly.

1. We strongly recommend the use of 
demineralized/distilled water to 
ensure optimum performance and 
maximize the life of your steam 
generator. If you are using 
demineralized/distilled water, the 
steam generator should be cleaned 
once every six (6) to twelve (12) 
months. If you use regular tap water, 
the steam generator should be 
cleaned once a month.
2. Make sure that all the steam has 
been released from the steam 
generator before doing any cleaning 
or maintenance on the appliance. 
Follow instructions on page 7 for 
releasing the steam.
3. Remove the power cord from the 
electrical outlet and let the unit cool 
down for at least 4 hours after it has 
been used before starting to clean 
the steam generator.
4. NEVER immerse the iron or the 
steam generator in water or any 
other liquid.
1. Clean the steam generator iron 
ONLY when cold.
2. Do NOT use scouring pads,
abrasives or harsh cleansers.
3. Use a commercially sold soleplate 
cleanser following the manufacturers 
label instructions.
4. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe the 
outer shell of the iron.
5. Dry soleplate and iron thoroughly 
after cleaning.
CLEANING THE STEAM 
GENERATOR IRON
1. Make sure that there is no steam 
remaining in the steam generator.
2. Make sure that the steam generator is 
completely cold.
3. Remove the boiler filler cap by slowly 
turning counter clockwise to allow any 
remaining steam to escape.
4. Fill water  tank with a solution of 20% 
vinegar and 80% water (5 oz vinegar 
and 21 oz of water) and let sit 
overnight (8-12 hours).
CLEANING THE STEAM 
GENERATOR BASE
1. Ensure that the seam generator is 
depressurized by opening the steam 
button on the iron until no further 
steam is escaping.
2. Always unplug the power cord from 
the electrical outlet when not in use.
3. Always store in a dry place away 
from the reach of children.
4. Always drain the water tank before 
storing.
5. Always let your steam generator cool 
completely before storing.
6. Do not let power cord and steam 
hose to touch hot surfaces.
7. Wrap the power cord and steam 
hose around the appliance loosely.
