Before First Use
• Steam vents should be cleaned before
first use. Prepare iron for steam
ironing, then iron over an old cloth
for a few minutes while letting the
iron steam. This will clean the vents.
• Many irons spit or sputter during
the first few uses with tap water.
This happens as the steam chamber
becomes conditioned. This will
stop after a few uses.
• During first use of the iron, it may
appear to smoke. This will stop and
does not indicate a defect or hazard.
