the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If
the plug does not fit into the outlet, have an electrician replace the
outlet.

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do not use vertical steam in the direction of people or pets.
• During first use of the iron, it may appear to smoke. This will
stop and does not indicate a defect or hazard.
• 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.
• To clean steam vents before first use, prepare iron for steam
ironing and then iron over an old cloth for a few minutes while
letting the iron steam. Press the Steam Burst button several times
to clean the vents. Then follow the self-cleaning instructions on
page 12.
