POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

Note: If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Please call the appropriate toll-free number listed in the warranty section of these instructions.

HOW TO USE

This product is for household use only.

Getting Started

• Remove the plastic band around the power plug and all labels, tags and stickers attached to the body, cord, or soleplate of the iron.
• Remove and save literature.
• Visit prodprotect/blackanddecker to register your warranty

Filling the Water Tank

1. With the iron on a flat surface, soleplate down, open the water-fill cover.
2. Tilt the iron slightly. Using a clean measuring cup, pour water into opening until water reaches the “MAX” level mark on the side of the water tank. Do not overfill. Close the water-fill cover securely.

Tip: This iron is designed to use normal tap water. If your water is very hard, you can use a mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled water to avoid build-up. It is not recommended to use water with perfumes or scented additives.

3. To refill at any time during the ironing process, unplug the iron and follow the above procedure.

USING YOUR IRON

1. Plug the iron into an outlet. The red power indicator light will illuminate, indicating that the iron is heating.
2. Read the manufacturer’s fabric label for clothing care recommendations to help select the correct temperature setting.

Tip: Since it takes an iron longer to cool down than heat up, organizing your clothing from Low to High temperature can cut down your ironing time.

3. The SmartSteam™ one-dial control automatically regulates steam level based on the fabric setting.

4. Allow the iron about 2 minutes to heat up to the desired temperature.

Tip: To dry iron (no steam) use SmartSteam™ settings 1–3, or for high heat simply empty the water tank. Once preheated, press the Burst of Steam button a few times to fully empty the water tank before ironing.

5. When finished ironing, turn the dial to the MIN setting, unplug iron from the outlet, and allow iron to cool before storing.

Burst of Steam

To help remove stubborn wrinkles, fill tank and select a setting from 4–6, then press steam burst button.

Anti Drip System

This iron is engineered to prevent water spotting at lower temperatures.

Vertical Steaming

Hold iron vertically and press the Burst of Steam button to steam garments right on the hanger, or to steam draperies and curtains.

Spray Mist

Press the Spray Mist button to dampen tough wrinkles while ironing. This setting works at any SmartSteam™ dial setting. Do not spray silk.

3 way Auto Shut-Off

The iron will automatically switch to Auto Shut-Off mode and stop heating after being left inactive for 30 seconds on the soleplate or side, and 8 minutes on the heel rest. When the iron is in Auto Shut-Off mode, the red light on the handle will blink. Simply move the iron to resume ironing and the soleplate will automatically heat to selected temperature.

CLEANING AND CARE

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer to qualified service personnel.

AUTO CLEAN™ SYSTEM

To keep the steam vents free of any build-up, follow these instructions once a month.

1. Fill water tank below the MAX line. Plug in the iron.
2. Turn dial to 6 and allow iron to heat on the heel rest.
3. Turn dial to MIN, unplug the iron and hold over a sink with the soleplate face down.
4. Press and hold the Auto Clean ™ button. Be careful as hot water and steam will come out of the vents. Continue to hold the button until the tank is empty. If necessary, rock the iron back and forth.
5. When empty, release button, stand iron its heel rest, and plug it in for 2 minutes to dry any remaining water.

CLEANING OUTSIDE SURFACES

1. Make sure the iron is unplugged and has completely cooled.
2. Wipe the soleplate and outer surface with a soft, damp cloth. Water and small amounts of gentle household soaps, such as dishwashing liquid, can be used. Never use heavy-duty cleaners, vinegar or abrasive scouring pads that may scratch or discolor the iron.
3. After the iron has been thoroughly dried, turn the iron back on and lightly steam over an old cloth. This will help remove any reside left in the steam holes.
4. When finished cleaning, turn iron off and allow time to cool before storing.

STORING YOUR IRON

1. Check that the iron is on the MIN setting, unplugged and completely cool.
2. Press and hold the cord reel button to retract the cord for storage.
3. Always store the iron vertically on its heel to prevent water leaking from the soleplate.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
• Use iron only for its intended use.
• To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
• The iron should always be turned to the minimum (min) setting before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never pull on the cord to disconnect from the outlet; instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
• Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
• Do not operate the iron if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage to the iron or its cord, or if it is leaking. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Call the appropriate toll-free number in this manual. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
• Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.
• Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down or use the surge of steam—there may be hot water in the reservoir. Avoid rapid movement of iron to minimize hot water spillage.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is placed is stable

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

• To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit.
• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, use a cord rated 15 amps or higher. A cord rated for less amperage could result in a risk of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
