CONGRATULATIONS
The Phoenix Gold FreeFlight cordless steam
iron gives you the high-performance power of
a professional, top-quality steam iron at home.
The Phoenix Gold FreeFlight has been
engineered with a heat-retaining, non-stick
ceramic sole plate that heats up quickly and
holds heat to extend your cordless freedom.
There are four steam burst canals that channel
the super-heated steam molecules over the
fabric to relax and smooth wrinkles. As a steamer,
it excels with 19 optimized steam release points
and a mini-air compressor built right inside to
generate high-intensity, wrinkle-erasing steam
bursts. Using the Phoenix Gold FreeFlight is
simpler than ever with a temperature dial that
includes a fabric guide; adjustable steam control;
and a comfortable, easy-to-grasp handle.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The Phoenix Gold FreeFlight cordless ironing and
steaming system makes easy work of removing
wrinkles from fabric. But before you begin, it's
very important that you read this entire manual,
making certain that you are totally familiar with this
appliance's operation and precautions.

NOTE: In hard water areas, you can use a
mixture of 50% tap water and 50% distilled
or demineralized water. Only use clean, pure
water that contains no contaminants or
additional chemicals.
1. Lift the Water Tank Cap and ll the Water
Tank with water without exceeding the
"Max" ll line. When lling the tank from
empty, hold the Unit nearly vertical and use
the Water Jug to add water. When relling
the Unit, remove the iron from the Unit Base,
open the Water Tank Cap, and tilt the iron
upward. Slowly ll the Water Tank without
exceeding the "Max" ll line and then close
the Water Tank Cap.
NOTE: Some water can get trapped inside
the cap and come out of the small air hole
when the iron is held vertically. This is not
a leak; simply open the cap and empty
out any residual water. Also, there can
sometimes be a noise created by air being
vented through the air hole in the cap. If this
occurs, simply open the cap to stop the
noise.
2. Plug the Base into a grounded wall socket
and switch the Unit on. Make sure the steam
is set to off while the Iron is heating.
NOTE: When used with the cord, the
light will go on and off as the temperature
regulates. When used cordlessly, the iron
should be placed back on the Base Unit to
maintain heat. When the thermostat light is
off, the iron is ready.
Instructions for Use
1. Remove all the packaging material.
2. Use the iron on a damp piece of cloth for
a few minutes. This will ensure that any
residue left over from the manufacturing
process is burned off the Ceramic Plate and
won’t transfer to your clothes. Any odor or
smoke during this process is normal and
should disappear quickly.
3. Your Phoenix Gold FreeFlight might come
with some water in the Water Tank. Flush
the system by filling the tank, setting the iron
on the highest temperature, and pressing
the steam trigger to release steam. Do this
at least once before first use and also if you
haven’t used your Phoenix Gold FreeFlight
for a long period.
Using the Phoenix Gold FreeFlight
Before First Use
Sort the laundry to be ironed
according to the international symbols
on the garment label. If this symbol is
missing, sort the laundry according
to the type of fabric. Start ironing the
garments requring a low temperature
first. This reduces the waiting times
(the iron takes less time to heat up
than to cool down) and eliminates the
risk of scorching the fabric.
Preparation
Garment Label Fabric Type Thermostat Regulations
Synthetic Low Temperature
Silk, Wool Medium Temperature
Cotton, Linen High Temperature
Fabric Not to Be Ironed
Instructions for Use
To dry iron, turn the temperature Control Dial to
the desired setting and turn the Steam Selector
to the "off" position.
Spray Function
To use the Spray Function, rst ensure that
there is water in the tank. Then, press the Spray
button (#5, p. 6) slowly (for a dense spray) or
quickly (for a vaporized spray).
Warning: For delicate fabrics, we
recommend moistening the fabric
beforehand using the Spray Button or
putting a damp cloth between the iron
and the fabric. To avoid staining, do not
use the spray on silk or synthetic fabrics.
Dry Ironing
Set the Steam Selector to the closed position
to maintain the pressure for the steam blast
function. After the iron has fully heated, press
the Steam Blast Trigger (#6, p. 6) to generate
a powerful burst of steam that can penetrate
fabrics and smooth difcult creases. Wait for
at least 2 secs. before pressing again.
Warning: The Steam Blast Trigger function
can only be used at high temperatures.
Remember to place the iron on the base
periodically when using the iron cordlessly.
Once the temperature light has gone out,
remove from the base and continue to steam.
Always read the care label.
