Care and Cleaning

1. Unplug and allow iron to cool.
2. To empty water from iron, lift Water Fill Door and slowly tilt
pointed end of iron over a sink until all the water has poured
out.
3. Store iron on the Heel Rest. NOTE: Use the Self-Clean
function following each use of the steam function to keep
the steam vents clear of any mineral buildup. Add water to
the iron. Turn the Temperature Setting Dial to linen ( ) and
preheat for 2 minutes. Then, turn the Temperature Setting
Dial to min and unplug. Hold the iron over a sink. Press and
hold the Self-Clean Button. Once steaming stops, release
the button and tilt iron forward and backward to ensure any
remaining water exits the vents on the soleplate. Allow iron
to cool before storing.
Soleplate Care
The Self-Clean function cleans the steam holes, but will not
remove residue from the flat surface of the soleplate. To clean
an iron's soleplate, preheat the iron to the linen ( ) setting
and iron over a damp, 100% cotton cloth. This creates heavy
steam that transfers residue from the soleplate to the cloth.
NOTES:
• Care should be used while cleaning; steam can burn.
• Never iron over zippers, pins, metal rivets, or snaps since
these may scratch the soleplate.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.
• Do not use chemical cleaners or hot iron cleaners, as this
will damage the soleplate finish.
