PANASONIC NI-WL607 (01) PDF MANUAL

Immediately stop using and remove the Power Plug if there is an abnormality or malfunction. Failure to do so may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

Examples of abnormalities include:

– The appliance stops occasionally, or the Power Cord or the Power Plug is abnormally hot, or discolored.

– The appliance is deformed or smells of burning.

In such cases, immediately request inspection from Panasonic Company.

When retracting the Power Cord, hold the Power Plug and Power Cord in one hand and press the Power Cord Wind Button with the other hand. This is to avoid risk of personal injury.

Always disconnect the appliance from the household outlet before filling the appliance with water, emptying the water from the appliance, and when it is not in use. Failure to do so may cause electric shock or fire.

Regularly clean the Power Plug to prevent dust from accumulating. Failure to do so may cause fire due to insulation failure caused by humidity. Disconnect the Power Plug and wipe with a dry cloth.

The appliance must be used and rested on a flat, stable surface. Failure to do so may cause injury or burn.

Drain water from the Water Tank after use. Failure to do so may cause scalds due to remaining water leaking out the next use.

Always turn the appliance “Off” before plugging or unplugging the appliance from the household outlet. Never pull on the Power Cord to disconnect the iron from the household outlet; instead, grasp the Power Plug and pull on the Power Plug to disconnect the iron.

A cordless iron is NOT a rechargeable device. You cannot continuously use this iron without placing it in the Power Base: the device that provides the energy required to heat-up the soleplate. The iron will re-heat quickly every time it is placed on the Power Base.

1. Most ordinary tap water can be used in this iron. However, in extremely hard water areas, distilled or demineralized water should be used. Do not use water processed through home water softening systems, since this water contains minerals that may be harmful to the iron.

2. It is best to start ironing with garments which require lower temperature settings. Wrong temperature setting may damage the fabric. If you are not sure of the fabric content, try the temperature of the iron on a hidden area of the garment.

3. Before ironing, sort the garments according to the different heat settings required. Do not touch plastic buttons with a hot iron, as this may damage the buttons. Caution is also required when ironing around zippers and similar items which might scratch the Soleplate.

1. Place the unit on a firm and stable surface.

2. While pulling the Case Lock Hooks to the outside position, lift the Cover Case to open.

NOTE:

1. The Cover Case cannot be unlocked when you lift the Cover Case with the Power Base.

2. Please detach the Shock Absorber and Film before ironing.

1. Remove the Water Tank by pressing the Water Tank Release Button.

2. Open the Water Fill Cover.

3. Fill the Water Tank up to the ” MAX ” line. DO NOT OVERFILL. Check the water level with the Water Tank held in its vertical position.

4. Close the Water Fill Cover.

5. Re-install the Water Tank into the main unit. Push it until a click sound is heard.

To maintain the temperature at the selected level, the iron must be energized while it rests securely on the Power Base. The Power Base is also the intended rest place for the iron.

NOTE:

When you need to set the iron down, the iron must be placed only on the Power Base. Placing it on fabrics while hot can cause the fabric to scorch or burn, which can cause a fire.

– Use only electric iron model NI-WL607/WL602/WL600 with this power base.

– Hot surface/hot support rollers. Do not touch after iron is energized.

To operate the Temperature Control Pad:

1. Every time you push the ” SET” Pad, the Temperature Indicator Light moves to the next position, a higher temperature.

2. Desired temperature can be chosen by pushing the ” SET ” Pad until it lights at the appropriate position.

TEMPERATURE INDICATOR LIGHT (RED):

– Continuously blinks until the iron reaches its selected temperature.

– Turn on continuously when the iron has reached its selected temperature to let you know that you can start ironing.

“OFF” LIGHT (GREEN):

This light turns on when:

– The cord is plugged into the outlet.

– The iron has automatically shut itself off.

– The iron has been manually turned off.

NOTE: All the lights will turn off once the iron leaves the Power Base. They will turn on again when the iron is re-placed.

1. Fill iron with water. See section ” HOW TO FILL WITH WATER “.

2. Plug the Power Cord into the household outlet.

3. Set the iron on the Power Base securely. The green ” OFF ” light will turn on.

4. Push the ” SET ” Pad to the corresponding temperature level. The red light starts blinking. See section ” HOW TO CONTROL TEMPERATURE ” and the following charts:

5. Hold the iron horizontally and move the Steam/Dry Selector into the desired steam position after the Temperature Control light turns on continuously. You can then start ironing.

Notes: If the green light does not turn on, replace the iron on the Power Base again, otherwise the Temperature Control Pad cannot function.

1. Move the Steam/Dry Selector to the Dry position.

2. Plug the Power Cord into the household outlet.

3. Set the iron on the Power Base securely. The green ” OFF ” light will turn on.

4. Push the ” SET ” Pad until the red blinking light reaches your desired temperature level. Wait until the Temperature Control light turns on continuously. You can then start ironing.

The ” Power Shot ” feature provides extra steam which goes deep into the garment and is helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles. The ” Power Shot ” feature operates properly only in the “HIGH” indication area of the “SET” Pad 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 ” Power Shot ” 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 ” Power Shot ” 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 iron with water. See section ” HOW TO FILL WITH WATER “.

2. Plug the Power Cord into the household outlet.

3. Set the iron on the Power Base securely. The green ” OFF ” light will turn on.

4. Push the ” SET ” Pad to the “HIGH” temperature level. The red light starts blinking.

5. Preheat the iron until the light turns on continuously, usually about 1-2 minutes.

6. Simply pump the ” Power Shot Button ” when steam is desired. Pump the ” Power Shot Button ” several times at the beginning of each ironing session.

7. Allow at least 5 seconds between uses of ” Power Shot Button ” to prevent water spotting. Use a press cloth if necessary.

NOTE: Do not touch the fabric with the iron. Keep the iron slightly over the fabric to prevent burns or disfiguring.

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 Power Shot Button at 5 second intervals as you pass the iron over the wrinkled fabric.

This model has an Anti-Drip System. When the temperature of the Soleplate’s surface drops below 250°F (121°C), the valve for the vaporizing chamber in the iron automatically closes and stops the water from going in further. This prevents hot unvaporized water from ejecting out of the soleplate when the iron has cooled down. With this System, it is unnecessary for you to wait until the inside of the vaporizing chamber dries completely when you store the iron.

NOTE: It is not a sign of malfunction when you hear a clicking sound. This sound can be heard whenever this System is activated.

The Automatic Shut-Off System provides you with a visible warning signal before the iron automatically shuts off. The iron will automatically shut itself off if it has been left on the Power Base longer than 10 minutes. Ten seconds before the actual shut-off, the “OFF” indicator will start blinking rapidly.

If the iron is not moved during the warning, the heater in the iron’s Soleplate will automatically shut off.

The Automatic Shut-Off System activates only after the temperature reaches its selected level. To reheat your iron after it automatically shuts off, simply push ” SET ” Pad until the red light appears at the desired temperature indicator.

“OFF” light (green) remains on after your iron automatically shuts off. This light indicates that the iron is still plugged into the household outlet and voltage is being supplied to the Power Base.

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 whenever spray is desired. If the spray doesn’t come out 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.

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.

1. Press the ” SET ” Pad until the ” OFF ” light turns on.

2. Move the Steam/Dry Selector to Dry Position.

3. Unplug the iron, retract the cord slowly. Always hold the plug and cord with one hand while it is retracting. When retracting, pull out the cord about 5-10 cm first, then let it retract slowly.

4. Empty the water from the Water Tank. DO NOT store the iron with water inside.

5. Push the Cover Case until it clicks to lock.

1. When cleaning the main body of the iron, make sure the iron has cooled down.

2. Wipe the iron with a damp cloth. If necessary, use a mild detergent.

NEVER USE ANY HARSH CLEANERS.

– 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 damaged, 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.

NOTES:

1. Check garment for specific ironing instructions. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

2. Iron blended fabrics at setting for lower-temperature fibers.

3. Use caution, some synthetics may melt at high temperature.
