F65E

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 liquid.

❑ The iron should always be turned off (refer to “How to Use” section) before

plugging into or unplugging from an 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 cord wrap when storing.

❑ Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with or emptying

of water 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 or use the surge of steam — there may be hot water in the water tank. Avoid rapid movement of iron to minimize hot water spillage.

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 10-ampere and 120-volt, or 6-ampere and 220-volt 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in 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 or in Latin America by an authorized service center.

How to Use

This appliance is 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 the iron unplugged and the steam button latched in the down position, use a clean cup and pour water into the fill hole (A). Refill as needed.

2. Plug in the iron and let it stand on its heel rest.

SELECTING TEMPERATURE

1. Use the fabric guide on the iron to select the proper temperature setting for the fabric to be ironed (B).

Tip: If unsure of a garment's fiber, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem) before ironing. If there is a brown buildup on the soleplate, lower the setting and/or reduce starch.

2. Once you determine the fabric type, set the temperature

selector to the appropriate setting for your fabric (C).

3. When finished ironing, place iron on its heel rest, turn temperature selector to OFF and unplug the iron.

STEAM IRONING

1. Be sure there is water in the water tank.

2. Turn the temperature selector between settings 5 and 7.

3. Unlatch the steam button to the Up position (D). If steam does not start, gently bump the soleplate on the ironing board a few times. If water drips from vents, turn the selector to a higher setting.

DRY IRONING

1. Turn the temperature selector to the desired setting and latch the steam button down. For extended periods of dry ironing, empty the water from the iron.

2. If you want to empty the water, hold the iron over a sink with the tip pointing down. Water will empty out the fill hole. Stay clear of splashing hot water.

ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM

The anti-drip system prevents water spotting at low temperatures.

Care and Cleaning

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

CLEANING

1. Move the temperature selector to OFF, unplug the iron and allow the iron to cool completely.

2. Wipe the soleplate and outer surfaces with a soft cloth or sponge dampened in water. Never use abrasives, heavy duty cleansers, or scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron.

STORAGE

1. Turn the temperature selector to OFF, unplug the iron and allow to cool completely.

2. Latch the steam button down. This helps keep the water valve clean and prevents water from entering the steam chamber, which could cause spitting during next use.

3. Store iron on its heel rest. Storing the iron on its soleplate can cause leaks or damage.
