IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

❑

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

❑

Use iron only for its intended use.

❑

To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.

❑

The iron should always be turned to “0” before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

❑

Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around the iron when storing.

❑

Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use.

❑

Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron, take it to a qualified serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.

❑

Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.

❑

Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down- there may be hot water in the reservoir.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

❑

To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit.

❑

If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

This product is for household use only.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified

personnel. In Latin America, by an authorized service center.

How to Use

This appliance is intended for household use only.

GETTING STARTED

Remove any labels, stickers or tags attached to the body or soleplate of the iron. Note: Use ordinary tap water for ironing. Do not use water processed through a

home softening system

Important: For optimum performance, let the iron stand for 90 seconds before beginning to iron.

FILLING WATER TANK

1. With iron on flat surface with soleplate down, open

water-fill cover (A).

2. Tilt the iron and using a clean measuring cup, pour water into opened chamber until water reaches the MAX level mark on the side of the water tank. Do not overfill.

3. Close the water-fill cover.

4. Plug in the iron. The on indicator light illuminates (B). Once the iron reaches the selected temperature, the light goes off. The light will then cycle on an off during ironing.

Note: If you need to add water while ironing, unplug the iron and follow above steps.

Tip: If unsure of a garment's fiber, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem) before ironing.

3-WAY AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF

The automatic shutoff feature in your iron works as follows:

• Once the iron reaches appropriate temperature, it will turn off after 30 seconds of inactivity if left on its soleplate or tipped over on its side. If left vertically on its heel rest, it will shut off after 8 minutes (C).

• The AUTO OFF light starts blinking red to let you know that

the iron has stopped heating (D).

• As soon as you pick up the iron, it will start heating again. Wait for iron to reheat completely before resuming operation.

SMART STEAM® TECHNOLOGY

The Smart Steam® system automatically produces steam when you turn the fabricselect dial between settings 4 and 6. The higher the setting, the more powerful the steam.

DRY IRONING

2. To release the water, hold the iron over a sink with the tip pointing down and to one side. Water will empty out of the water-fill opening (K).

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

CLEANING OUTSIDE SURFACES

1. Make sure iron is unplugged and has cooled completely. Wipe the soleplate and outer surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water. Add mild household detergent. Never use abrasives, heavy-duty cleansers, vinegar or scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron.

2. After cleaning, steam iron over an old cloth to remove any residue from the steam vents.

AUTO CLEANING

To keep the steam vents free of any buildup, about once a month follow these instructions:

1. Fill the water tank well below the MAX line. Plug in the iron.

2. Turn the fabric-select dial to 6 and stand the iron on its heel rest. Allow it to heat until the on indicator light goes out and comes on again.

3. Turn fabric selection dial to 0, unplug the iron and hold over a sink with the soleplate facing down.

4. Press and hold the AUTO CLEAN® button. Be careful, as

hot water and steam will come out of the steam vents (L). Continue to hold the AUTO CLEAN® button until all the water has emptied. If necessary, rock iron side-to-side and front-to-back.

5. When finished, release the button, stand the iron on its heel rest and plug it in. Heat for about 2 minutes to dry out any remaining water.

STORING YOUR IRON

1. Unplug the iron and allow it to cool.

2. Check that the selector is set to 0.

3. Store vertically on its heel to prevent water leaking from the soleplate.

INSTRUCCIONES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURIDAD

Cuando se utilizan aparatos eléctricos, especialmente en la presencia de los niños, siempre se debe tomar ciertas medidas de seguridad, incluyendo las siguientes:

❑

LEA TODAS LAS INSTRUCCIONES ANTES DE UTILIZAR EL PRODUCTO.

❑

Utilice la plancha solamente con el fin previsto.

❑

A fin de evitar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico, no sumerja la plancha en agua ni en ningún otro líquido.

❑

Siempre ajuste la plancha a la posición de apagado (0) antes de conectarla o desconectarla de la toma de corriente. Nunca tire del cable para desconectar el aparato; sujete el enchufe y hale con cuidado.

❑

No permita que el cable entre en contacto con las superficies calientes. Espere que la plancha se enfríe bien antes de guardarla. Enrolle el cable holgadamente alrededor de la plancha.

❑

Siempre desconecte la plancha cuando no esté en uso y cuando llene o vacíe el tanque de agua.

❑

No utilice la plancha si el cable o el enchufe presentan algún desperfecto, si la ha dejado caer o dañado. Para evitar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico, no desarme la plancha. Acuda a una persona de servicio calificada. El reensamblaje incorrecto de la plancha puede ocasionar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico.

❑

Se requiere supervisar de cerca todo aparato eléctrico al ser utilizado por o en la presencia de los niños. Nunca descuide la plancha mientras permanece enchufada ni sobre la tabla de planchar.

❑

Pueden ocurrir quemaduras al tocar las piezas metálicas, el agua caliente, o el vapor que emite la plancha. Tenga cuidado al invertir una plancha de vapor ya que puede haber agua caliente adentro del tanque.

INSTRUCCIONES ESPECIALES

❑

Para evitar una sobrecarga eléctrica, no utilice ningún otro aparato de alto consumo de corriente en el mismo circuito.

❑

Si el uso de un cable de extensión es indispensable, se debe de utilizar uno de 15 amperios. Los cables de menor amperaje se pueden sobrecalentar. Se debe tener cuidado de acomodar el cable de manera que nadie lo hale ni se tropiece.

CONSERVE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES.
