Shark GI468CN 12 - Manual (Page 5)

Read all garment care labels before you start
ironing. You can also test the temperature of the
iron on a hem or an inside seam.
Iron similar fabrics together and in sequence of
synthetic fibers acrylic, nylon, silk/wool, polyester
and cotton/linen. This will reduce the need to
adjust the temperature frequently.

ATOMIZER SPRAY
8 Use the atomizer spray to get rid of
tough wrinkles. Make sure there is
enough water in the tank. Press the
atomizer spray button to moisten
the fabric.
Before choosing to iron with steam
for the first time, let the iron heat-up,
hold in a horizontal position and hit
the burst of steam button a couple of
times.
When you turn on the
iron for the first time it
might emit an odor for
the first ten minutes. This
is because the materials
used in making the iron
are heating up. The odor
is safe and should not
re-occur after the initial
heating.
To prevent fire, do not
leave iron unattended
while connected.
