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 the 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 the outlet.
• Never yank the cord to disconnect from the outlet; instead, grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely before putting it away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
• Always disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
• Do not operate iron with a damaged cord, or if the iron has been dropped or damaged.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron; take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair, or call the appropriate toll-free number on the cover of 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 the 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 the 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.
• 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 when the iron is used.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord rated at 15-ampere should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This product is for household use only.

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-friendly parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.
Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service centre.

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.
• Please go to www.prodprotect.com/blackanddecker to register your warranty.
  Note: Use ordinary tap water for ironing. Do not use water processed through a home softening system.
  Important: For optimum performance, let the iron stand for 90 seconds before beginning to iron.
  Tip: If unsure of a garment’s fibre, test a small area (on an inside seam or hem) before ironing.

FILLING WATER TANK

1. Tilt the iron and using a clean measuring cup, pour water into the opening until the water reaches the MAX level mark on the water tank. Do not overfill.
   Note: If you need to add water while ironing, unplug the iron and follow the above steps.

SPECIAL FEATURES

AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF IN 2 POSITIONS

• Once the iron reaches the appropriate temperature, it will turn off after 30 seconds of activity if left on its soleplate. If left vertically on its heel rest, it will shut off after 8 minutes.
• As soon as you pick up the iron, it will start heating again. Wait for the iron to reheat completely before resuming operation.

Anti-Drip System
The anti-drip system prevents water spotting at low temperatures.

IRONING WITH STEAM
The Smart SteamTM system automatically generates the right amount of steam for the fabric type selected. Once you select the temperature, the Smart SteamTM technology detects the temperature and adjusts the steam power accordingly.

Steam
Use to remove stubborn wrinkles.

1. With the water tank filled to the MAX mark, set the fabric select dial to the appropriate setting (between 4 and 6) for your fabric.
2. Be sure there is water in the tank. Steam is automatically turned off between settings 0 and 3.
3. When finished ironing, turn the fabric select dial to 0 and unplug the iron.
   Important : Always stand the iron on its heel rest when powered on but not in use.

USING SPRAY

2. While ironing, press the Spray Mist button to generate the mist at any temperature setting.
3. On first use, pump the spray button several times.

IRONING WITHOUT STEAM
