Caring for the Iron

Care and Cleaning

1. Allow iron to cool.
2. To empty water from iron, open the water tank cover
and slowly tilt pointed end of iron over sink until
water runs out.
3. Do not store iron laying flat on soleplate.
Soleplate Care
To clean an iron's soleplate, preheat the iron to the
highest temperature setting and iron over a damp,
100% cotton cloth. This creates heavy steam that
transfers grime from the soleplate to the cloth. Many
irons have a Self-Clean Button. This will clean the
steam holes, but it will not remove grime from the flat
surface of the soleplate.
NOTE: Care should be used while cleaning; steam
can burn.
Self-Clean Feature
To keep the steam vents clear of any buildup, follow
these instructions each time you iron using steam.
1. Pour tap water into water tank opening, no more
than to the MAX fill line.
2. Plug iron into outlet.
3. Turn Temperature Control Dial to Cotton-Linen •••
setting and let iron heat for 2 minutes.
4. To store the cord, loosely wrap cord around the base
of the iron.
NOTICE: To avoid damage to the iron soleplate:
• Never iron over zippers, buttons, pins, metal rivets, or
snaps, since they may scratch the soleplate surface.
• Allow the iron to cool and wipe with a soapy, soft
damp cloth to clean occasional buildup on the
soleplate. Never use abrasive cleaners or metal
scouring pads, since they may scratch the surface.
4. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to OFF.
5. Unplug iron.
6. Hold iron over sink.
7. Press and hold the Self-Clean Button until tank is
empty.
