Before use

The temperature selector of the iron has words, dots and steam symbols.

The dots are symbols for 3 temperature ranges:

- Low temperature

•• Medium temperature

... High temperature

Some fabrics are labeled with these dots as a guide for selecting the proper ironing temperature setting. Use a press cloth if necessary.

Notes:

• The thermostat operating indicator light goes on and off alternately to indicate the changing temperature of soleplate. If you turn the temperature selector from a high temperature to a lower temperature, wait until the indicator light goes on before using the iron.
• Do not place the hot iron on cloth for extended time or wrap cloth over the hot iron.

How to use as an iron

1. Move the steam/dry selector to the dry position to avoid water leakage.

1. Fill water in the water tank when using steam, power shot, vertical steam or spray.

① Open the water fill cover. Hold the iron as shown and fill the iron with water up to "MAX" (about 300 mL). Use a claen cup for filling.

② Place iron in vertical position to check water level.
③ Close water tank cover firmly to prevent spillage during ironing.

Note:

Do not overfill the water tank. The steam will release through the vents when the iron is positioned vertically.

1. Position the iron in the heel rest position and make sure the temperature selector is set to "0".

1. Plug the power plug into an outlet.

1. Set the temperature selector. The thermostat operating indicator light goes on.

Refer to "Guide for Steam/Dry selector" on P10

- Please make sure the temperature select indicator setting is on "MAX" when using "high steam" and "power shot".

Note: If the temperature of soleplate is high, the light does not go on.

1. Wait until the thermostat operating indicator light goes off. Hold the iron horizontally and move the steam/dry selector into the steam position when using the "power shot". (P10)

7. After each use

① Set the steam/dry selector to the dry position. If the steam/dry selector is not in the dry position after using, remaining water will move into the soleplate and can result in burns when the iron is used next time.

English

② Empty the water tank immediately after using. Do not store the iron with water in it. If you empty the water tank after it has cooled, heat the iron for about 5 minutes with the temperature selector set to "MAX".

- Do not wind the power cord around the iron. It may be damaged by the hot soleplate.

③ Wait until the iron has cooled before storing it, and always set it on the heel rest to protect the soleplate from scratches, corrosion or stains.

Guide for Steam/Dry selector

	Steam/Dry selector	Temperature zone	Recommendations
Dry		Choose according to the type of fabrics	For polyester and other synthetic fiber material.
Low steam			For thin or delicate fabrics requiring a small amount of steam.
High steam			For fabrics requiring a lot of steam. (i.e. thick materials, items with stubborn wrinkles).

Please make sure the temperature select indicator setting is on "MAX" when using "high steam".

CAUTION: Do not aim the steam at any parts of your body or others.

Notes:

• The anti-drip system will activate when the temperature of the soleplate's surface drops. The thermostat operating indicator light will go on and steam will stop. It is normal to hear clicking sound during this process. Resume usage only after the thermostat operating indicator light has turned off.
• Use an ironing board supports a steam iron.

Using the "power shot"

The "power shot" feature provides extra steam which goes deep into the garment and is helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles. It is necessary to clean the inside of the iron before using the "power shot" feature, if you have not used the "power shot" feature for a prolonged period. Simply test the "power shot" feature several times away from the ironing board and clothes to be ironed. This will prevent brown spotting or water spotting on the clothes.

Set the steam/dry selector to the dry position. Set the temperature selector to the "MAX" position.

Simply pump the power shot button

• Pump the power shot button several times at the beginning of each ironing session.
• Press the power shot button in intervals of at least 2 seconds between use to prevent water spotting.
• If the power shot weakens, wait until the thermostat operating Indicator light goes on, and then off.
• Use a press cloth if necessary.

Using the "vertical shot"

To get better results when using vertical steam, hang the garment on a hanger. Curtains and drapes may also be steamed once they are hung. Hold the iron away from your body, close to but not touching the fabric. Pull the fabric tightly and pump the power shot button at 2 seconds intervals as you press the iron over the wrinkled fabric.

- If the power shot weakens, wait until the thermostat operating indicator light goes on, and then off.

Using the "spray"

The spray feature is particularly helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles and where extra dampen is needed.

The spray may be used with steam or dry ironing. Simply push the spray mist button whenever spray is desired.

• If the spray does not work immediately, keep triggering until it does.

How to care for and store your iron

3-way cleaning

▶ METHOD(1) Using the self-cleaning feature

1. Fill the water tank with tap water as described in the "How to fill the water tank" on P8.

2. Set the temperature select indicator to "0".

3. Put the power plug into a household socket.

4. Stand the iron up and set the temperature select indicator to the "MAX" position.

5. After the thermostat operating indicator light goes off, set the temperature select indicator to "0" and unplug.

6. Hold the iron horizontally over the sink, press and hold the self-cleaning button and shake the iron back and forth. Impurities and scale (if any), together with steam and boiling water will be flushed out. Steam will flush out first, and boiling water will flush out after approx. 30 seconds. (Caution: water will be scalding hot)

1. Once the water tank has been completely drained, hold the iron horizontally over the sink. Or, stand the iron up on a stable surface and place an old towel or similar under the soleplate.
2. Plug the power plug into a household outlet and set the temperature select indicator to "MAX". Impurities together with steam and boiling water will be flushed out.
3. Set the temperature selector to "0" and unplug. Then, turn to METHOD(2).

▶ METHOD(2) Using the "power shot" feature

1. Fill the water tank with tap water as described in the "How to fill the water tank" on P8.
2. Set the temperature select indicator to "0".
3. Put the power plug into a household outlet.
4. Stand the iron up and set the temperature select indicator to "MAX".
5. Hold the iron horizontally over the sink after the thermostat operating indicator light has gone out.

1. Pump the power shot button quickly (at least 2 times per second) for approx. 30 times continuously. While pumping, shake the iron back and forth.
2. Set the temperature select indicator to "0".
3. Unplug and dispose of any water remaining in the water tank.
4. To prevent corrosion of the soleplate vents, plug the power plug into a household outlet, stand the iron up, set the temperature select indicator to "MAX" and preheat for about 5 minutes.
5. Set the temperature select indicator to "0" and unplug.

6. Iron on a used cloth to remove any impurities on the soleplate.

7. Repeat METHOD(1) and METHOD(2) if venting of the steam does not improve.

8. Use both methods once every two weeks. If the water is very hard (i.e. steam holes on the soleplate are easily blocked by impurities), both methods should be used more frequently.
9. Let the iron cool down on its heel rest and follow the instructions in the "After each use" on P9.

▶ METHOD(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.

Anti-drip system (automatic water seal)

This model has an anti-drip system. When the temperature of the soleplate's surface drops to low, the valve for the vaporizing chamber in the iron automatically closes and stops the water from flowing. This prevents hot unvaporized water from spewing out from the soleplate 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 even a click sound is heard. This sound can be heard whenever this system is activated.

How to care for your iron

▶ Surface of the iron

• After unplugging and cooling the iron, simply wipe off with a damp cloth and if necessary, use a mild detergent.
• Never use any strong cleaners.

▶ Soleplate

• Starch and other residue may be easily removed from the soleplate with a damp cloth.
• To avoid scratching the surface, never use a metallic pad to clean the soleplate, and never place the iron on a rough surface.
• The best way to remove synthetic residue from the soleplate is to iron over an old cotton cloth rag after heating the iron.

Note:

- Never use cleaners in the iron, since they may damage the working parts of the iron. Some odor may be released during initial use of the iron, however, this is normal and the odor will not attach to your clothes. Never use steam iron detergent in the iron, detergent in the iron, since they may damage the working parts of the iron.
