Before First Use

• Steam vents should be cleaned before first use. Prepare
iron for steam ironing, then iron over an old cloth for a few
minutes while letting the iron steam.
• Many irons spit or sputter during the first few uses with
tap water. This happens as the steam chamber becomes
conditioned. This will stop after a few uses.
• During first use of the iron, it may appear to smoke. This
will stop and does not indicate a defect or hazard.
