HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR IRON AFTER EACH USE 1. Set the Temperature Selector Dial to "Off ". 2. Turn the iron off and unplug. 3. Empty the iron immediately after using. Do not store the iron with water in it. 4. Move the Steam/Dry Selector into the Dry position. If the Steam/Dry Selector is not in the Dry position after using, remaining water will move into the Soleplate and damage the Soleplate and may result in burns during the next initial use of the iron. 5. Wait until the iron has cooled before storing it, and always set it on the Heel Rest to protect the Soleplate from scratches, corrosion or stains. 6. After letting iron cool completely, push the Cord Wind Button to wind the cord. Store the iron vertically in a safe place after winding cord completely. ( NI-E650TR/E655TR/E300TR Only) Please see IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on page 2 items 4 and 5. OUTSIDE SURFACE OF IRON After unplugging and cooling the iron, simply wipe off with a damp cloth and if necessary, use a mild detergent. NEVER USE ANY HARSH CLEANERS. SOLEPLATE • Starch and other residue can be easily removed from the Soleplate with a damp cloth. • To avoid scratching the finish, never use a metallic pad to clean the Soleplate, and never place the iron on a rough surface. • If synthetics are being ironed on a higher temperature level than instructed, not only will the fabric be ruined, but the Soleplate will often be covered with the melted remains of the synthetic fabric. • The best way to remove synthetic residue from the Soleplate is to iron over an old cotton rag after heating the iron. A CAUTION Never use steam iron cleaners in the iron, since they may damage the working parts of the iron.
