• When using the iron for the first time, test it on a piece of old cloth to be sure that
the soleplate and the water reservoir are clean.
• It is possible that the iron will discharge some smoke or give off a slight odor
during its first usage. This is due to the initial heating of the materials used. This
is completely normal and will stop shortly afterwards.
• When not ironing, always have the steam select switch turned to the closed position.

2. Select the desired temperature on the temperature control dial.
3. Once the selected temperature is reached, the indicator light will go off and you
can begin to iron. The indicator light will be on every time the iron is heating.
The light will turn on and off from time to time while you are ironing since the
thermostat automatically maintains the soleplate at the same temperature.
Another important feature of your steam iron is the 180º swivel cord, which prevents
tangling and allows for easy use by both right and left handed people.
