The Ironing Plate is the heated, non-stick surface that is used to press fabrics,
remove wrinkles and create creases.
The Main Body contains the unit’s internal heating components.
The Heating Indicator Light illuminates when the Temperature Control Dial is
set to one of the three heat settings.
The Water Tank Cap covers the Water Tank fill hole. The Water Tank Cap is
tethered to the unit, and cannot be completely removed.
The Water Tank Window lets you monitor the level of water in the Water
Tank. The unit must be sitting upright to correctly read the water level.
The Steam Button is pressed to activate the unit’s steam function. Locking
the Steam Button down disables steam; pressing the Steam Button releases
it into the unlocked position, enabling steam.
The Temperature Dial Indicator serves as the guide to which heat setting is
currently active.
The Handle is ergonomically designed for user comfort. The Hand Grip
contains the unit’s Water Tank, and the base is specially designed for the
power cord to be wrapped around for storage.

The Water Tank, located inside the Handle, is designed to hold a maximum
of 1.18 oz (34.90 ml.) water.
The Voltage Selector is the recessed switch which is used to set the unit to
either 120V or 220V electrical voltage standards. By default the Voltage
Selector is set to 120V.
The Stands are the two supports located at the rear of the Main Body. The
Stands are designed to support the unit in an upright position when the
Ironing Plate is hot, to help prevent damage to surfaces.
The Measuring Cup allows you to fill the Water Tank with minimal spillage.

SETTING VOLTAGE
The Dual Voltage Travel Iron features dual-voltage functionality, which allows it to
function correctly in regions with either 120V or 220V electrical voltage standards.
Voltage is set using the Voltage Selector.
For use in Canada or North America, the voltage selector switch should be
placed in the 120 volt position. For use in most foreign countries, the selector
switch must be placed in the 220 volt position. CONFIRM the voltage available at
each location before using the iron.
NOTE: For connection to a 220 volt supply an adaptor plug may be needed.
IMPORTANT: By default, the Voltage Selector is set to the 120V setting. Be sure to
select the correct voltage for your location before plugging power cord into an
electrical outlet.
TO CHANGE THE VOLTAGE SETTING:
NOTE: These steps assume that Voltage Selector is still set to 120V default.
1. Locate Voltage Selector, recessed inside slot at rear of Main Body. Note the
open notch in middle of Voltage Selector (Figure 1-A).
2. Find a tool with a fine tip - a pen is ideal.
