GETTING TO KNOW YOUR RETRACTABLE CORD IRON
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
Before using your EURO-PRO Select
Retractable Cord 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.
SELF CLEANING
STORAGE
It is important to “Self Clean” the iron at
least every two weeks to remove scale,
calcium, etc. The harder the water, the
more often the iron should be self
cleaned.
1. Always turn the variable steam
control to “No steam position” after
you have emptied the water tank.
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.
2. Stand the iron in the vertical
position to cool down before storing.
1. Set the variable steam control to
position “No steam position”.
3. Always store the iron in the upright
position to protect the soleplate.
2. Fill the water tank up to the “MAX”
level.
4. From time to time, clean the exterior
of the iron with a damp cloth and
wipe dry.
3. Stand the iron in the vertical position.
Plug the iron into the electrical outlet
and wait until the iron heats up and
thermostat light goes off and then
comes on again.
5. If you use spray starch, wipe the
soleplate occasionally with a soft
damp cloth to prevent the build-up of
deposits.
4. Hold the iron horizontally over the
sink and slide the variable

See Figure 6.
“
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.
6. Boiling water and steam will now be
ejected from the holes in the
soleplate. The impurities and scale
are washed away with it.

WARNING! Use caution when
emptying the iron. Burns may occur
from touching hot metal surfaces,
hot water or steam.

See Figure 4.
DRY IRONING
WARNING! TO PREVENT THE RISK
OF BURNS, use caution when filling
iron with water. Burns can occur
from touching hot metal parts, hot
water, or steam.
All marked settings on the temperature
dial can be used for dry ironing. Slide
the variable steam control lever all the
down as shown in Figure 1. This will cut
off the steam flow if water is in the tank.
5. Slide the steam lever up to increase
the amount of steam. When using
extra steam, the iron uses more
water and it may be necessary to fill
the tank more often. See Figure 3.
NOTE: Because of the soleplate design,
ordinary tap water may be used with this
iron. However, in very hard water areas,
we recommend using distilled or
demineralized water.
For Dry Ironing:
For Steam Ironing:
CAUTION: Never fill the iron with
fabric conditioner, starches or any
other liquid, as these will damage the
steam mechanism. Do not use
contaminated water.
Figure 4
NOTE: If the tank runs dry, remove the
plug from wall outlet. Then, fill the iron
with water and re-prime the pump. The
iron may be filled with water while it is
hot.
1. Turn temperature dial to “MIN” and
slide lever all the way down.
WATER SPRAY
Figure 1
1. Turn temperature dial to “MIN” and
slide the variable steam control lever
all the way down to "0" mark.
2. Holding the iron at a slight angle,
pour water slowly into the water
filling inlet. See figure 2. Fill tank to
desired level or to the “MAX” water
level marking using the water filling
flask. (When the iron is upright, the
transparent water tank allows you to
gauge the amount of water.) DO
NOT overfill the tank.
The water spray is useful on fabrics with
stubborn wrinkles. Press the spray
button and a jet of water will spray onto
the fabric being ironed. See Figure 5.
The water spray can be used with dry or
steam ironing as desired.

2. Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V
AC electrical outlet. The power “ON”
light will come on, indicating that the
iron is receiving power.
WARNING! DO NOT aim iron at face,
towards yourself, or anyone else
while using or adjusting steam.
Burns or serious injury may occur.
3. Turn the temperature dial to the
desired setting. (See “Ironing Guide”
for a guide to temperature selection.)
The burst-of-steam button is useful
when ironing denim, cotton, and linens.
It provides extra, sudden blasts of
steam which aid in removing stubborn
wrinkles.

protected surface while iron is
warming to desired temperature.
The burst-of-steam feature can be used
with Dry or Steam ironing as desired.
