2. Set the temperature dial to the "Max" 
position. Place the iron on its heel 
(on a stable, protected surface) and

press the burst of steam button 
several times to prime the pump. 
(Fig. 4)
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 desired 
temperature.
5. Slide the variable steam control lever 
up to increase the amount of steam. 
When using extra steam, the iron 
uses more water and it may be 
necessary to fill the tank more often. 
See page 4.

SELECTING IRON 
TEMPERATURES
Always read garment labels and follow 
the manufacturer’s ironing instructions. 
Refer to the "Ironing Chart" on page 10

IRONING HINTS
WARNING!
To prevent fire, do not 
leave iron unattended while 
connected.
Sort articles to be ironed according 
to the type of fabric. This will reduce 
the need to adjust the temperature 
for different types of garments.
If you are not sure of the fiber 
content of a garment, test a small 
area such as a seam or inside hem 
section before ironing a visible area. 
Start with a low temperature setting 
and gradually increase to find the 
best setting.
When reducing the temperature to 
iron sensitive fabrics, allow 
approximately 2 minutes for the iron 
to cool to the new temperature 
setting.
Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen 
and silk are best ironed with an 
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
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.
The auto shut-off safety function of your 
iron is designed to engage from any 
position after approximately 7 minutes of 
non-use. The auto shut-off indicator light 
will turn on when the auto shut-off has 
been activated. (Fig. 8) To reset your iron 
and continue ironing follow these steps.
1) Lift iron from ironing board.
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. 
Do Not Shake the Iron. 
The temperature indicator light will 
illuminate when the auto shut-off system 
has been reset. Allow time for the iron to 
re-heat. The temperature indicator light 
will go out when the iron is ready for use.

Vertical steaming enables you to 
remove wrinkles from delicate 
garments without having to rest them 
on the ironing board, i.e. jackets, 
curtains, etc…
1. Place garment on a hanger, away 
from other garments or people.
2. Hold the iron in a vertical position 
and press the steam button.

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 sliding the steam lever 
to "0".
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.
WATER SPRAY
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. (Fig. 5) The 
water spray can be used with dry or 
steam ironing as desired.
BURST OF STEAM
WARNING! 
DO NOT aim iron at face, 
towards yourself, or anyone else 
while using or adjusting steam. 
Burns or serious injuries may occur.
The burst-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 burst-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.
