3. Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V 

AC electrical outlet.

4. Turn the temperature dial to any of 

the temperatures within the steam 

band and allow the iron to heat for 

approximately 2 minutes before 

ironing. Place iron on its heel (on a 

stable, protected surface) while the 

iron is warming to the desired 

temperature.

5. Turn the variable steam control to 

the right to increase the amount of 

steam. (See figure 3) When using 

extra steam, the iron uses more 

water and it may be necessary to fill 

the tank more often. For refilling the 

iron with water follow the steps listed 

above.

1. Turn temperature dial to "••" or 

“MAX“ and turn the variable steam 

control to “0”.

2. Holding the iron at a slight angle, 

pour water slowly into the water 

filling inlet. See figure 2. Fill tank to 

desired level or to the “MAX”

water level marking using the water 

filling flask. (When the iron is upright, 

see-through water tank allows you to 

gauge the amount of water.) DO 

NOT overfill the tank. 

6. Steam is produced as soon as the 

iron is held in the horizontal position. 

Steam will stop coming out when the 

iron is put on its heel in a vertical 

position or by turning the steam 

control dial to "0".

The blast-of-steam button is useful 

when ironing denim, cotton, and linens. 

It provides extra, sudden blasts of 

steam which aid in removing stubborn 

wrinkles.
The blast-of-steam feature can be used 

with Dry or Steam ironing as desired.
1. Make sure the water tank is at least 

1/2 filled with water.

2. Set the temperature dial. Place the 

iron on its heel (on a stable, 

protected surface) and allow it to 

heat for approximately 2 minutes.

3. With the iron in a horizontal position, 

press the blast of steam button 

several times to prime the pump. 

See Figure 4.

The water spray is 

useful on fabrics 

with stubborn 

wrinkles. Press the 

spray button and a 

jet of water will 

spray onto the 

fabric being ironed. 

See Figure 6. The water spray can be 

used with dry or steam ironing as 

desired.

The auto shut-off safety function of your 

iron is designed to engage after approx. 

7 minutes of non-use. The auto shut-off 

indicator light will flash when the auto 

shut-off has activated. To reset your iron 

and continue ironing follow these steps. 
1) Lift the iron.

2) Holding the iron horizontally in front of 

you, gently rock the iron back and 

forth several times. This motion will 

reset the safety switch inside the iron. 

The red temperature ready light will 

illuminate when the auto shut-off system 

has been reset. Allow time for the iron to 

re-heat. The red temperature indicator 

light will go out when the iron is ready for 

use.

NOTE: If the tank runs dry, remove the 

plug from wall outlet. Then, fill the iron 

with water and re-prime the pump. The 

iron may be filled with water while it is 

hot.
4. For vertical steam, 

press the blast of 

steam button while 

holding the iron 

in a vertical 

position. See 

figure 5. The 

vertical steam 

function is useful 

for steaming 

curtains and 

drapes while still hanging.

NOTE: Before starting to iron delicate 

fabrics, it is best to first test the 

temperature of the iron on a hem or 

an inside seam.

Always read garment labels and follow 

the manufacturer's ironing instructions. 

Refer to the "Ironing Chart" on page 9 

for temperature recommendations: See 

figure 7.
•

Use low settings for synthetics.

•• Use moderate settings for wool, 

silks, and blends.
