HOW TO FILL WITH WATER _
AWARNING
Be sure the iron is unplugged from the electrical outlet before filling with water.
1. M o ve the Steam/Dry Selector to the Dry position to avoid water leakage.
Open the Water Fill Opening. Hold the iron as shown and fill the
iron with water up to “ MAX ” line (about 7.7 ounces/200ml).
Use a cup for filling (see Note). |
2. Do not overfill. Check for the correct water fill level
with the iron in the vertical position.
3. Close the Water Fill Opening, or water will splash
from Water Reservoir when ironing. “ MAX ” ^
Line
Note:
Most tap water can be used in this iron. If water is very hard, distilled or demineralized
water should be used. Do not use water processed through home water softening
systems because this water contains minerals that may be harmful to the iron.
Do not use water additives or substitute water such as linen or scented water in the steam
iron. They can stain fabrics or damage the iron.
HOW TO USE AS A STEAM IRON _
1. Fill the iron as described in “ HOW TO FILL WITH WATER ”.
2. Position the iron vertically and be sure the Temperature Selector Dial is set to “Off”.
3. Plug the AC Cord into the electrical outlet.
4. Set the Temperature Selector Dial to the “ ” or “ $£? ” (steam) zone.
“ <£? ” zone: Low Steam, for thin or delicate fabrics requiring a small amount of steam.
“ ^2 ” zone: High Steam, for fabrics requiring a lot of steam (i. e. thick materials, items with
stubborn wrinkles).
5. Preheat the iron until the Indicator Light goes out, usually about 1-2 minutes.
This Light will go on and off during ironing to indicate that the temperature chosen by the
Temperature Selector Dial is being maintained.
6. Hold the iron horizontally and move the Steam/Dry Selector into the steam position.
Steam/Dry Selector is regulated as follows.

Now steam ironing can begin
7. Whenever the iron is positioned vertically, the
steaming action will stop.
A CAUTION
Do not use the Steam/Dry Selector unless the iron is sufficiently hot to produce steam,
otherwise water will leak out through the vents instead.
HOW TO USE AS A DRY IRON _
1. Move the Steam/Dry Selector to the Dry position.
2. Position the iron vertically, set the Temperature Selector Dial to “Off”.
3. Plug in the iron.
4. Set the Temperature Selector Dial to the desired position.
(Refer to the FABRIC IRONING CHART in this manual on page 12)
5. Preheat the iron until the Indicator Light goes out, usually about 1-2 minutes.
HOW TO USE THE "SPRAY 1 1 FEATURE
Note: Before using the spray feature, check the fabric label for ironing instructions because
some fabrics may be spotted or stained with moisture.
The spray feature is particularly helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles and where extra
dampening is needed.
The spray may be used with steam or dry ironing.

1. Simply pump the Spray Mist Button when spray is desired.
If the spray doesn't work immediately, keep pumping
until it does.
2. To get a finer spray, pump the Button vigorously.
To get a more powerful spray, pump the Button more
slowly. For best results, use a quick, full stroke. —
HOW TO USE THE "JET OF STEAM " FEATURE
(NI-E650TR/E655TR/E300TR Only)
The "Jet of Steam" feature provides extra steam which goes deep into the garment and
is helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles. The "Jet of Steam" feature operates properly
only in the “ ” indication area of the Temperature Selector Dial when steam or dry
ironing (If used at lower setting, water spotting will occur because the iron is not hot
enough to change water to steam). If you have not used the " Jet of Steam " feature
for a long time, it is necessary to clean the inside of the iron before using this feature
on any clothes to be ironed. Simply test the " Jet of Steam " feature several times
away from the ironing board and clothes to be ironed. This will prevent brown spotting
or water spotting on the clothes.
1. Fill the iron as described in “ HOW TO FILL WITH WATER ”.
2. Position the iron vertically and be sure the Temperature
Selector Dial is set to “Off”.
Plug the AC Power Cord into the electrical outlet.
3. Set the Temperature Selector Dial to the “ ” indication area
4. Preheat the iron until the Indicator Light goes out, usually
about 1-2 minutes.
5. Simply pump the " Jet of Steam Button " when steam is
desired. Pump the" Jet of Steam Button " several times
at the beginning of each ironing session.
6. Allow at least 2-5 seconds between uses of the "Jet of
Steam Button " to prevent water spotting. Use a press
cloth if necessary.
A CAUTION
Do not use the "Jet of Steam Button " until the Thermostat Operating Indicator Light turns
off after setting the Temperature Setting Dial to “ ”. Hot water may leak from the
Soleplate and burns may result, and it may cause corrosion.
- 8 -

HOW TO USE THE "VERTICAL STEAM" FEA TURE ( N I - E 65 0TR/E655TR Only)
To get better results when using vertical steam, hang
the garment on a clothes hanger. Curtains and drapes
may also be steamed once they're hung. Hold the iron
away from your body, close to but not touching the fabric.
Pull the fabric tight with your free hand and pump the
Vertical Steam Button (Jet of Steam Button) at 2-5 seconds
intervals as you pass the iron over the wrinkled fabric.
AWARNING
- Never iron clothes on the body or point your iron at anyone when steaming.
- Keep hands and body away from steam areas while using vertical steam feature.
SELF-CLEANING (NI-E650TR/E655TR/E300TR Only)
With the self-cleaning feature you can flush out mineral residue from the steam generating
chamber and the steam vents, refreshing your iron each time for a longer steaming life.
It is very important to operate the self-cleaning feature after each steam ironing to prevent
mineral accumulations from hardening.
1. Check water level. Water level should be at 1/2 full mark.
When water level is less than half full, fill with water according
to the instructions in “ HOW TO FILL WITH WATER " .
2. Preheat at “ Max " setting (for about 1-2 minutes).
Make sure that the Steam/Dry Selector is in the Dry position.
3. Set the Dial to “Off” and remove the AC plug.
4. Hold the iron horizontally over the sink.
5. Pump the "Jet of Steam Button " quickly (at least 3
times per second) about 20-30 times.
6. While self-cleaning, tilt the iron up and down slowly to help clear
the entire inside and let the water drip out of the soleplate vents.
7. Check that all water and steam have completely stopped coming out of the soleplate
vents. After self-cleaning is finished, empty any remaining water from the Water
Reservoir by turning the iron upside down.
8. Iron on a towel to remove any drops of water remaining on the bottom of iron.
9. Allow the iron to cool and store on its Heel Rest. Never store an iron on its Soleplate or
with water in it.
10. If water still remains inside the Soleplate after self-cleaning operation, dry out the iron
by setting the iron on the “ Max ” setting, to vaporize the remaining water. After the iron is
dry, follow the instructions under" AFTER EACH USE ".
-9-

STAY CLEAN VENTS (NI-E650TR/E655TR Only) _
The built-in Anti Calcium System (Calc Cut) in the Water Reservoir continuously reduces scale
buildup in the vaporizing chamber of the iron.
This system makes it possible to use the steam function for a long period of time and prevents
steam vents from clogging.
ELECTRONIC 3-WAY AUTO SHUT- OFF FUNCTION
(NI-E650TR/E655TR/E300TR Only) _
AWARNING
The Auto Shut-Off feature (or setting the thermostat to “Off”) is not intended to take
the place of unplugging the cord. Disconnect the electric iron when not in use !
Even though the iron is unplugged, the soleplate is still hot. Be sure to rest the iron
on its heel, away from fabric.
1. When the iron is not moved with its Soleplate facing down or on its side for approx. 1 minute,
the iron will automatically shut off power to the heater.
2. When the iron is not moved on its Heel Rest for approx. 10 minutes, the iron will automatically
shut off power to the heater.
3. To resume ironing and turn the iron back on, simply move the iron in any manner. If the iron
has been left in the auto shut off mode for more than 10 minutes. Allow the iron to reheat
until the Indicator Light goes out.
NOTE: The Auto Shut-Off System works regardless of position of the Temperature
Selector Dial.

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.
