When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. 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 are closely supervised and instructed
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is
used by or near children. Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
4. Only use an iron for its intended use.
5. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron
in water or other liquids.
6. Always turn the iron to OFF ( ) before plugging or
unplugging the iron from the electrical outlet. Never pull
on the cord to disconnect the iron from the electrical
outlet; instead, grasp the plug and pull on the plug to
disconnect the iron.
7. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool
completely before putting the iron away.
8. Always disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet before
filling the iron with water, emptying the water from the
iron, and when the iron is not in use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
9. Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or in the
event the iron has been dropped or damaged or there are
visible signs of damage or it is leaking. To avoid the risk
of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Take it to a
qualified serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect
assembly might result in a risk of electric shock when the
iron is used after reassembly.
10. The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
11. When placing the iron on its heel rest, ensure that the
surface on which the heel rest is placed is stable.
12. Do not leave the iron unattended while the iron is
connected or on an ironing board.
13. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water,
or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside
down—there might be hot water in the reservoir.
14. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate an iron on the
same circuit with another high-wattage appliance.
15. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord with
an ampere rating equal to or greater than the maximum
rating of the iron shall be used. A cord rated for less
amperage can result in a risk of fire or electric shock due to
overheating. Care shall be taken to arrange the cord so that
it cannot be pulled or be tripped over.

Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
wWARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is
provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce
the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a
polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug
by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

2. Setting will blink at beginning and turn solid
(also beeps) when iron is ready to use. Preheat
2 minutes to reach desired temperature. You
are now ready to iron.
3. Set Adjustable Steam Lever to desired steam
setting when using steam to iron.
4. Turn Fabric Temperature Setting Dial until off is illuminated on

wCAUTION Eye Hazard: Hold the plug with one hand while
pushing the Cord Retraction Button with your other hand to
retract the cord.
How to Dry and Steam Iron
wCAUTION Burn Hazard: Attempting to steam iron on a lower
temperature setting or failing to allow the iron to preheat for
2 minutes can result in hot water dripping from the soleplate.

POSITION SENSING/AUTO SHUTOFF
The iron will turn off automatically when left in the following
positions. The Auto Shutoff time varies based on the iron’s
position.
IRON POSITION MOTIONLESS TIME
Resting on soleplate 1 min

Resting on heel 30 min
FABRIC FACTS AND LABELS:
Every fabric is different and should be treated accordingly.
The label inside clothing or linens includes recommended
fabric care instructions and ironing treatment. Follow these
instructions to ensure your garments and linens look their
best. If the fabric is a blend, use a low temperature setting.
If you do not know the content of the fabric, use the lowest
temperature first and test on an inside seam.

IRONING TIPS:
• Always iron with a lengthwise motion. Ironing in a circular
motion may stretch fabric.
• Natural fibers such as cotton and linen should be ironed
slightly damp for faster, easier ironing. If they are completely
dry, use maximum steam while ironing or mist them with
water prior to ironing.
• Any portion of a garment that has two layers of fabric such
as pockets, seams, collars, and cuffs should be ironed inside
out first.
• To press a collar, iron from the points in using small strokes
of the iron. After wrinkles are removed, crease the collar into
place by hand. Treat French cuffs similarly, gently creasing
by hand after ironing.

1. Unplug and allow iron to cool.
2. To empty water from iron, swivel Water Fill Door and
slowly tilt pointed end of iron over a sink until all the
water has poured out.
3. Store iron on the Heel Rest. NOTE: Use the Self-Clean
function following each use of the steam function to keep
the steam vents clear of any mineral buildup. Add water
to the iron. Turn the Fabric Temperature Setting Dial until
linen stops blinking and turns solid. Then, turn the Fabric
Temperature Setting Dial until OFF ( ) is illuminated on
the Fabric Temperature/OFF ( ) Indicator and unplug.
Hold the iron over a sink. Press and hold the Self-Clean
Button until steam no longer comes from the vents on the
soleplate. Allow iron to cool before storing.
wCAUTION Eye Hazard: Hold the plug with one hand
while pushing the Cord Retraction Button with your other
hand to retract the cord.
Care and Cleaning
Soleplate Care
NOTES:
• Care should be used while cleaning; steam can burn.
• Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps since
these may scratch the soleplate.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.
The Self-Clean function cleans the steam holes, but will not
remove residue from the flat surface of the soleplate. To clean
an iron’s soleplate, preheat the iron to the linen setting and
iron over a damp, 100% cotton cloth. This creates heavy
steam that transfers residue from the soleplate to the cloth.
10
Iron won’t heat.
• Plug iron into a working outlet.
• Select a temperature.
• Move or tilt the iron to reset.
Water is leaking.
• Too much water is in the Water Tank.
• Adjust steam to a lower setting. Ensure iron is set to a Steam
Temperature Setting.
• Steam button ( ) has been pressed while the iron was cold.
Select a temperature and let the iron preheat for 2 minutes.
Allow 3–4 seconds between Steam button ( ) presses for
best performance.
• If dry ironing, make sure the Adjustable Steam Lever is in the
(Dry Iron) position.
Iron won’t steam.
• Ensure there is water in the Water Tank.
• Move the Adjustable Steam Lever to the (Steam) position.
• Allow iron to reach temperature by waiting until setting turns
solid.
• Anti-drip feature will not allow steam when temperature
setting is in the dry range.
• If all fabric settings on display blink, stop using the iron.
