FILLING WITH WATER
1. Using a clean cup, pour water
into the Water Fill until the
water level reaches the top of
the Water Tank (Figure A). Do
not overfill. Refill as necessary.
2. Ordinary tap water can usually
be used for ironing. However,
do not use water processed
through a home softening
system.
3. In extremely hard water areas
(over 180 parts per million),
consider using distilled or
demineralized water. If using
distilled or demineralized water,
tap water should be used the
first time you use the iron and
once per month thereafter to
maintain steam performance.
STARTING THE IRON
1. Plug in the iron.
2. Press the ON/OFF Button
(Figure B).
3. Select the heat setting for the
fabric to be ironed. (See Fabric
Ironing Chart on page 9 or the
Heat Fabric Guide on the iron.)
4. Turn the Heat/Fabric Dial to the
Setting Indicator (Figure C).
Allow approximately 45 seconds
for the iron to preheat.
5. Unless the Power On Light is
already on, you must press the
ON/OFF Control to start the iron.
6. The iron will automatically shut
off after one hour. (Figure D).
