WAY(3) Anti Calc System(Stay Clean Vents)
The built-in Anti Calc System in the Water Tank continuously reduces scale build up in the
vaporizing chamber of the iron.
This system makes it possible to use the steam function for a long period of time and prevents
steam vents from clogging.
(J) AMTI-DRIP SYSTEM (AUTOMATIC WATER SEAL)
This model has an Anti-Drip System. When the temperature of the Soleplate’s surface drops
below 115°C (238“F), the valve for the vaporizing chamber in the iron automaticaily cioses and
stops the water from flowing. This prevents hot unvaporized water from spewing out from the
Solepiate when the iron has cooled down. With this System, it is unnecessary for you to wait
until the inside of the vaporizing chamber dries completely when you store the iron.
Note: It is not a sign of malfunction when you hear a clicking sound. This sound can be heard
whenever this system is activated.
ELECTRONIC 3-WAY AUTO SHUT-OFF FUNCTION
1. When the iron is left unmoved with its Solepiate facing down or on its side for approx. 1 minute,
the iron will automatically shut off.
2. When the iron is left unmoved with its Heel Rest facing down or on its side for approx.10
minutes, the iron will automatically shut off.
3. To resume ironing and turn the iron on, simply move the iron in any manner. If the iron has
been left in the auto shut off mode for more than 10 minutes. Allow the iron to reheat until
the Indicator Light goes out.
Note: The Auto Shut-Off system works regardless of position of the Temperature Selector.
Always unplug the iron when you finish ironing.
® HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR IRON
AFTER EACH USE
1. Set the Temperature Selector to “ 0 ”.
2. Turn the iron off and unplug.
3. Empty the iron immediately after using. Do not store the iron with water in it.
If you empty the iron after it has cooled, heat the iron for about 5 minutes at “MAX”
temperature.
4. Set the Steam/Dry Selector to the Dry position. If the Steam/Dry Selector is not at Dry position
after using, remaining water will move into the Solepiate and can result in burns when the
iron is used next time.
5. Do not use the Steam or the Jet of Steam while the AC cord is unplugged or the Temperature
Selector is set to “ 0", water will remain inside the Solepiate and cause staining.
6. Do not wind the AC cord around the iron, it may be damaged by the hot Solepiate.
7. Wait until the iron has cooled before storing it, and always set it on the Heel Rest to protect
the Solepiate from scratches, corrosion or stains.
OUTSIDE SURFACE OF IRON
« After unplugging and cooling the iron, simply wipe off with a damp cloth and if necessary, use
a mild detergent.
» Never use any harsh cleaners.
