Before using your Shark Gentle
Glide 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.
The odor is safe and should not reoccur
after initial heating.
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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 1
DRY IRONING
Center the variable steam selector as
shown in figure 1. This will cut off the
steam flow if water is in the tank.
1. Turn temperature dial to "MIN/LOW"
and move the variable steam selector
to "0".
2. Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V
AC electrical outlet. The temperature
ready light will come on, indicating
that the iron is heating up.
3. Turn the temperature dial to the
desired setting. (See "Ironing Guide"
for a guide to temperature selection.)
4. When the light turns off, the set
temperature has been reached and
the iron is ready to use.
5. During ironing the light will switch
on/off as the thermostat maintains
the set temperature. You may
continue ironing during this process.
Figure 
STEAM IRONING
1. Open the water filling inlet cover.
Holding the iron at a slight angle,
pour water slowly into the water
filling inlet. See figure 2. Fill tank
to desired level or to the "MAX"
water level marking using the water
filling flask. (When the iron is upright,
see-through water tank allows you to
gauge the amount of water.)
DO NOT overfill the tank.
2. Plug the cord into a polarized, 120V
AC electrical outlet.
3. Turn temperature dial to "••" or "•••"
and slide the variable steam selector
to the desired steam setting.
4. Turn the temperature dial to any
of the temperatures within the
steam band and allow the iron
to heat for approximately 2 minutes
before ironing. Place iron on its heel
(on a stable, protected surface)
while the iron is warming to desired
temperature.
5. Slide the variable steam selector
to increase the amount of steam.
See figure 1. When using extra
steam, the iron uses more water and
it may be necessary to fill the tank
more often.
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 turning the steam
control dial to "0".
