Care and Cleaning Iron Storage 1. The water tank of your iron should be emptied after each use. Turn Temperature Control Dial to OFF. Unplug the iron and hold over a sink. Slowly tilt pointed end of iron down over sink. Water will run out of water fill opening. 2. After iron has completely cooled, wrap cord loosely around iron and store in an upright position. Do not store iron laying flat on soleplate. Soleplate 1. Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps, since these may scratch the soleplate. 2. To clean occasional buildup on the soleplate, wipe with a sudsy cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads. 3. Always store iron upright in the heel rest position. 10 Caring and Cleaning (cont.) Self-Clean To keep the steam vents clear of any buildup, follow these instructions each time you iron using steam. 1. Set Temperature Control Dial to OFF. Fill iron with water to 1/2 of its maximum capacity. 2. Set Adjustable Steam Control to 0 (Dry Iron). Set Temperature Control Dial to High temperature setting and let iron heat for 2 minutes. 3. Set Temperature Control Dial 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 indicated in Step 2. Boiling water and steam could still flow out of steam vents. Troubleshooting PROBLEM THINGS TO CHECK Iron won't heat • Is the iron plugged in and the outlet working? Check the outlet by plugging in a lamp. • Is the Temperature Control Dial turned to a High, Medium, or Low setting? • If automatic shutoff model, is the Auto Shutoff Light flashing? Move the iron to reset. 11
