HOW TO USE THE JET OF STEAM FEATURE
(NI-350S/350R/550S/550R/551R Only)
The jet of steam feature gives extra steam which goes deep into the garment and is
helpful for removing stubborn wrinkles. The jet of steam feature can be used 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. :
