IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using your Steam Generator Iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed.
Read carefully the following instructions as they provide important information concerning how to
install, use and care for this appliance.
1. Use steam generator iron only for its intended use.
2. Use ironing system only for its intended use.
3. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron or any part of the ironing system in
water or any other liquids.
4. The ironing system (iron and steam generator) should always be turned OFF before plugging into or
unplugging from wall outlet. Never pull power cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and
pull to disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let the ironing system cool completely before putting away or
opening water tank (removing safety cap). Wrap cord loosely around the ironing system when storing.
6. Always disconnect ironing system from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and
when not in use. Always turn the safety cap slowly when opening the water tank.
7. Always make sure that there is no steam in the steam generator (water tank) before opening the
safety cap. Follow instructions to release all remaining steam though the iron by pressing the steam
release button. Unplug the unit and allow to cool before starting to open safety cap. Always turn the
cap slowly when opening the water tank to allow any remaining steam to escape gradually.
8. Do not operate the ironing system with a damaged cord, plug or if the iron or any other part of the
system has been dropped or damaged. To avoid risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt
to repair the ironing system. Return the unit to EURO-PRO Operating LLC (see warranty) for
examination, repair or replacement. Incorrect reassembly or repair can cause a risk of electrical shock
or injury to persons when the ironing system is used.
9. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave ironing
system unattended while connected or while on an ironing board. Always position the iron flat on the
silicone rubber posts.
10. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Use caution when turning the
system upside down, as there may be hot water in the unit. Never direct steam at any
person, especially when using the iron in the vertical position. The steam is very hot and can
cause burns.
11. The hot iron base (soleplate) must always rest on the non combustible silicone rubber posts on top of
the steam generator.
12. Do not operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
13. This appliance is intended only for household use. Follow all user instructions in this manual.
WARNING: The power cord on this product contains lead, a chemical known to the State of
California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit
simultaneously with the steam generator iron.
2. If an extension is absolutely necessary, a 15-ampere rated cord with a polarized plug should be
used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange so that it
cannot be pulled on or tripped over.
3. Do not leave iron unattended when the system is connected to a power supply/electrical outlet.
POLARIZED PLUG:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
As a safety feature, this plug will 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 defeat this safety
feature.

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

Rev. 05/01C
Even if you have used a steam generator iron before, please read all instructions and safeguards
in the Use and Care Instruction Book. In addition, please note the following user tips:
USING STEAM
PLEASE NOTE: Steam performance improves after the first 6-8 hours of usage. The steam
power increases and initial condensation at maximum temperature is reduced.
1. Make sure the temperature setting of the iron is within the steam range on the temperature
selector.
2. Turn power on for iron and steam generator. Before starting to use steam, make sure the
Steam Ready Light (2) is “ON”, indicating that steam is available.
NOTE: Trying to use steam before the Steam Ready Light (2) is “ON” can cause water
drops in the stem coming out of the iron.
CLEARING THE INITIAL CONDENSATION:
3. Clear the initial condensation by pressing the Steam Button (C) up to 3 seconds. Repeat if
necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
4. While using the ironing system, if steam has not been released for more than
approximately 5 minutes, the hose has cooled and any steam remaining in the hose from
the last use might condense. Clear this condensation by pressing Steam Button (C) before
proceeding to use the iron.
