IRONING CHART
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR ELECTRONIC IRON
The odor is safe and should not reoccur
after initial heating.
Before using your PowerPro 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.
NOTE: Always refer to the garment care tag for ironing instructions. Before starting to
iron delicate fabrics, it is best to first test the temperature of the iron on a hem or an
inside seam.
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.

Burst of steam provides extra,
sudden bursts of steam which aid in
removing stubborn wrinkles from
fabrics such as denim, cotton or
linen.

soleplate occasionally with a soft
damp cloth to prevent the build-up of
deposits.

AUTO SHUT-OFF
SELF CLEANING
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE
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.
ONLY and may be plugged into any
120V AC polarized electrical outlet. Do
not use any other type of outlet.
The PowerPro Iron is equipped with an
auto shut-off. The auto shut-off switches
the iron off if it has been left standing
unmoved in any position (sideways, flat or
upright) for approximately 7-9 minutes. A
red light on the LED display panel will
flash when the iron switches itself off.
(Fig. 6) To switch the iron back on, just
shake the iron side-to-side several times.
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.

4. Place the iron on its heel on a stable,
protected surface and allow the iron
to heat for approximately two (2)
minutes or until the temperature
settings on the right side of the LED
display panel have stopped flashing.
5. Turn the variable steam control dial
to the right to increase the amount of
steam. When using extra steam, the
iron uses more water and it may be
necessary to fill the water tank more
often. (Fig. 2)
Always read garment labels and follow
the manufacturer’s ironing instructions.
Refer to the “Ironing Chart” on page 9
for temperature recommendations:
WARNING To prevent fire, do not
leave iron unattended while
connected.
•
Sort articles to be ironed according
to the type of fabric. This will reduce
the need to adjust the temperature
for different types of garments.
•
Use low settings for nylon and other
synthetics.
•• Use moderate settings for wool,
silks, and blends.
Fig. 3
•
If you are not sure of the fiber
content of a garment, test fabric by
ironing a small area such as a seam
or inside hem section before ironing
a visible area. Start with a low
temperature setting and gradually
increase to find the best setting.
••• Use high settings for cottons and
linens.
5. Slide the variable steam control
up to increase the amount of
steam. (Fig. 3) When using extra
steam, the iron uses more water
and it may be necessary to fill
the tank more often. See page 4
for refilling the iron with water.
6. Steam is produced as soon as
the iron is held in the horizontal
position. Steam will stop coming
out when the iron is put on its
heel in a vertical position or by
setting the variable steam control
to “0”.
1. Stand the iron upright on its heel.
2. Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V
AC electrical outlet.
3. Press the electronic temperature
control until you get the desired
fabric/temperature setting.
4. The light on the right side of the LED
display panel will stop flashing when
the desired temperature has been
reached. (Fig. 5)
•
•
When reducing the temperature to
iron sensitive fabrics, allow
approximately 2 minutes for the iron
to cool to the new temperature
setting.
Fig. 2
Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen
and silk are best ironed with an
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
BURST OF STEAM BUTTON
CAUTION DO NOT aim iron at
face, towards yourself, or
anyone else while using or adjusting

The burst of steam position is useful
when ironing denim, cotton and linens. It
provides quick bursts of steam which
aid in removing stubborn wrinkles.
