• Steam vents should be cleaned before first use. Prepare iron

for steam ironing, then iron over an old cloth for a few min-
utes while letting the iron steam. This will clean the vents.

• Many irons spit or sputter during the first few uses with 

tap water. This happens as the steam chamber becomes
conditioned. This will stop after a few uses.

• During first use of the iron, it may appear to smoke. 

This will stop and does not indicate a defect or hazard.
