HOW TO USE

This product is for household use only.

GETTING STARTED

• Remove any labels, stickers or tags attached to the body or soleplate of the iron.
• Please go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your warranty.

Note: Use ordinary tap water for ironing. Do not use water processed through a home softening system.

For optimum performance, let the iron stand for 90 seconds before beginning to iron.

Tip: If unsure of a garment's fiber, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem) before ironing.

FILLING WATER TANK

1. Open the water-fill cover.
2. Tilt the iron and using a clean measuring cup, pour water into opening until the water reaches the MAX level mark on the water tank. Do not overfill.
3. Close the water-fill cover.

Note: If you need to add water while ironing, unplug the iron and follow above steps.

SPECIAL FEATURES

3-WAY AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF

The automatic shutoff feature in your iron works as follows:

• Once the iron reaches appropriate temperature, it will turn off after 30 seconds of inactivity if left on its soleplate or tipped over on its side. If left vertically on 8 minutes its heel rest, it will shut off after 8 minutes (A).
• The power indicator light starts blinking to let you know that the iron has stopped heating.
• As soon as you pick up the iron, it will start heating again. Wait for iron to reheat completely before resuming operation.

Note: Wait for iron to reheat completely before resuming operation.

Anti-Drip System
The anti-drip system prevents water spotting at low temperatures.

IRONING WITH STEAM

Smart Steam^TM Technology
The Smart Steam^TM system automatically generates the right amount of steam for the fabric type selected. Once you select the temperature, the Smart Steam^TM technology detects the temperature and adjusts the steam power accordingly.

Surge of Steam

Use to remove stubborn wrinkles.

1. With the water tank filled to the MAX mark, set fabric select dial to appropriate setting (between 4 and 6) for your fabric.
2. Be sure there is water in the tank. Steam is automatically turned off between settings 0 and 3.
3. Press the steam button to generate a surge of steam. For best performance, leave an interval of 5 seconds between bursts.
4. When finished ironing, turn the fabric select dial to 0 and unplug the iron.

Always stand the iron on its heel rest when powered on but not in use.

Vertical Steam

Use for removing wrinkles from hanging clothes and drapes.

1. Be sure the water tank is filled to the MAX mark.
2. Hang the garment to be steamed on a clothes hanger. (Curtains or drapes can be steamed once they are hung.)
3. Turn the fabric select dial to appropriate setting (between 4 and 6) for your fabric.
4. Hold the iron close to (but not touching) the fabric.
5. Pull the fabric tight in your free hand and pump the steam button as you move the iron over the fabric.

Always stand the iron on its heel rest when powered on, but not in use.

USING SPRAY

Use to dampen tough wrinkles at any setting.

1. Be sure the iron is filled with water.
2. On first use, pump the spray button several times.

IRONING WITHOUT STEAM

1. Turn the fabric select dial to setting between settings 0 and 3 to iron without steam. The Smart Steam^TM system will automatically turn off.
2. To dry iron at higher settings, empty the water from the tank to prevent steaming.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING OUTSIDE SURFACES

1. Make sure iron is unplugged and has cooled completely.
2. Wipe soleplate and outer surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with water.

AUTO CLEAN^TM SYSTEM

To keep steam vents free of any buildup, about once a month follow these instructions.

4. Press and hold the AUTO CLEAN ^TM button. Be careful, as after several seconds, hot water and steam will come out of the steam vents. Continue to hold the AUTO CLEAN ^TM button until all the water has emptied. If necessary, rock iron side to side and front to back.
5. When finished, release the button, stand the iron on its heel rest and plug it in.
