IRONING CHART
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR 1750 WATT PRO IRON
Before using your 1750 Watt Pro Iron,
remove any labels, stickers or tags that
may be attached to the body or
soleplate of the iron.
When turned on for the first time, your
new iron may emit an odor for up to 10
minutes. This is due to the initial
heating of the materials used in making
the iron.
The odor is safe and should not reoccur
after initial heating.
NOTE: Always refer to the garment care tag for ironing instructions. Before starting to
iron delicate fabrics, it is best to first test the temperature of the iron on a hem or an
inside seam.
Also, before ironing with steam for the
first time, allow iron to heat, hold in a
horizontal position and hit the burst of
steam button several times. The iron
may emit some small particles from the
steam holes. This is normal and will
clear after pressing the burst of steam
button several times.

1. Always turn the variable steam
control to “0” after you have emptied
the water tank.
WARNING! To prevent fire, do not
leave iron unattended while
connected.
2. Allow the iron to cool down.
3. Always store the iron in the upright
position to protect the soleplate.
4. From time to time, clean the exterior
of the iron with a damp cloth and
wipe dry.
5. If you use spray starch, wipe the
soleplate occasionally with a soft
damp cloth to prevent the build-up of
deposits.
6. If the iron has not been used for a
few weeks, hold the iron horizontally
and allow to steam for 2 minutes
before ironing.
NOTE: The anti drip function reduces
water dripping and water stains. It does
not prevent water dripping and water
stains if you press the steam burst
button too often or if the temperature is
too low. The amount of water droplets
will eventually decrease after the iron is
used for 2 to 3 tankfuls of steaming and
ironing.
•
Sort articles to be ironed according
to the type of fabric. This will reduce
the need to adjust the temperature
for different types of garments.
If you are not sure of the fiber
content of a garment, test fabric by
ironing a small area such as a seam
or inside hem section before ironing
a visible area. Start with a low
temperature setting and gradually
increase to find the best setting.
When reducing the temperature to
iron sensitive fabrics, allow
approximately 2 minutes for the iron
to cool to the new temperature
setting.
Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen
and silk are best ironed with an
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
