spots
• Do not overfill the water tank.
• If steam ironing, is Steam ON/OFF Control in a
steam position, the Temperature Control Dial in
the steam range, and did the iron have enough
time to preheat?
• If dry ironing, make sure the Steam ON/OFF
Control is in the DRY IRON position ( O ).
• If using the Blast button, push button less fre-
quently.
• Follow the self-cleaning instructions one or
two times with tap water (not distilled) to
“condition” the iron.
• Check the water level.
• Is Steam ON/OFF Control in Steam position?
• Has the iron had enough time to preheat?
• Anti-drip feature will not allow steam when
temperature setting is in the dry range.
• ALWAYS empty the water tank of the iron
after using. Water left in the tank may discolor
clothing and soleplate.
• If the iron cord should become twisted, unplug
iron and let cool. Hold iron cord in the middle
of entire length. Let plug and iron dangle freely
until cord uncoils. This will extend the life of
your iron cord.
• Check Temperature Control Dial is set to
correct fabric.

Caring and Cleaning (cont.)
Self-Clean
To keep the steam vents clear of any build-up, follow these
instructions each time you iron using steam.
1. Set Temperature Control to OFF. Fill iron with water to
1
⁄2 of
its maximum capacity.
2. Set Steam ON/OFF Control to O (Dry Iron). Set Temperature
Control to Linen setting and let iron heat for 2 minutes.
3. Set Temperature Control to OFF. Unplug iron and hold over
a sink with soleplate facing down.
4. Press and hold the Self Clean Button. Boiling water and
steam will flow out of steam vents. Allow all water to drain
from iron.
5. Gently move iron front to back to allow water to clean
entire soleplate area.
6. If water still remains inside of soleplate, reheat iron as indi-
cated in Step 2. Boiling water and steam could still flow out
of steam vents.
