be emptied after each use. Turn
Temperature Control Dial to O.
Unplug the iron and hold over a
sink. Slowly tilt pointed end of iron
down over sink. Water will run out
of water tank opening.
1. Never iron over zippers, pins, metal
rivets, or snaps, as these may
scratch the soleplate.
2. To clean occasional build-up on the
soleplate, wipe with a sudsy cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers or
metal scouring pads.
2. After iron has completely cooled,
wrap cord loosely around the iron
and store in an upright position. Do
not store iron laying flat on soleplate.
