• Always disconnect Iron from electrical outlet when filling with water, emptying or when not in use.
• Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or hot steam. Use caution when you turn the Steam Iron upside down as there can still be hot water in the reservoir.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:

• With the Dual Voltage Selector, the iron can be set to different supply voltages. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating label.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord is not recommended for use with this product, but if one must be used:

— The marked electrical rating must be at least as great as that of the product.
- If the product is of a 3-prong grounding type, the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
- Arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled.

WARNING: This product is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other blade) to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This is a safety feature. The plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug into the electrical outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use the plug with an extension cord unless you can fully insert the plug into the extension cord. Do not alter the plug. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

Selecting the Temperature:

1. Put the iron on its Heel Rest. Put the plug in the socket.

2. Adjust the temperature control dial according to the international symbol on the garment label. Use the Fabric Guide on the Iron to also select a proper temperature setting. The power light indicates with a red light that the iron is heating up. Wait until the power light turns green before ironing.

3. Once you select a fabric type set the temperature dial to the appropriate setting for your fabric.

Using Your Travel Iron:

1. Steam ironing requires high temperatures. The temperature level for steam ironing is indicated in the temperature control knob.
2. After filling the reservoir with water, place the steam iron upright on its base stand and insert the plug into the wall socket.
3. Set the temperature control knob to the required ironing temperature as indicated by the ironing symbols.
4. During the heating-up proceed the indicator lamp will be on, the lamp will go out once the required ironing temperature is reached.

NOTE: Before ironing any fabrics, the soleplate should be cleaned by passing it over an old, clean cotton cloth, while using the steam jet function; this helps to flush out any dirt residues or lint particles trapped inside the openings in the soleplate.

1. The steam function can now be switched on and off using the steam selector.

2. For dry ironing, the water reservoir may be empty. Should there be water left in the reservoir, the steam jet function may also be used when dry-ironing at higher temperature settings.

3. Place the steam iron upright on its base stand after use and remove the plug from the wall socket.

Steam:

• When the steam button 📄 is pressed, an additional hot steam jet is emitted from the soleplate, this function can be very useful when removing stubborn creases. The steam function may also be used with iron held vertically, to restore the surface of fabrics.
• For a sufficiently strong steam jet, the reservoir must be at least a quarter full.

Cleaning:

Note: before cleaning the iron in any way, make sure that the appliance plug is not connected to the socket.

1. Move the temperature dial selector to OFF and unplug the iron. Allow it to cool completely before handling.
2. If necessary, the unit may be wiped with a dry lint-free cloth. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the appliance with water and do not immerse it in water.
3. Starch and other deposits on the exterior of the soleplate may be removed with a woolen clothe soaked in a vinegar-water solution.
4. Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions. Do not put vinegar or other descales into the water reservoir.

NOTICE: Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet when it is not in use or will be left unattended.

1. Pour any remaining water out of the reservoir through the water fill hole and turn the steam selector to the position.
