SINGER SteamLogic 7061 Iron User Manual

1. Important Safety Instructions

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using the iron.
• Use the iron only for its intended use.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
• Always turn the iron OFF before plugging or unplugging from the electrical outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
• Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
• Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron; take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
• Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.
• Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.
• To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.
• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage can overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

2. Product Overview

The SINGER SteamLogic 7061 Iron is designed for efficient and effective garment care. It features a powerful 1775-watt heating element, continuous steam output, and a 280 ml water tank capacity. Key features include variable steam control, continuous steam technology, scale prevention, and a self-cleaning function.

3. Setup

3.1 Before First Use

Remove any labels or protective film from the soleplate. It is recommended to test the iron on an old piece of fabric before ironing valuable garments to ensure no residue is left from manufacturing.

3.2 Filling the Water Tank

1. Ensure the iron is unplugged from the electrical outlet.
2. Open the water tank cover, typically located on the top front of the iron.
3. Using a measuring cup, carefully pour clean tap water into the water tank up to the 'MAX' fill line. Do not overfill.
4. Close the water tank cover securely.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Temperature Settings

The iron features a temperature control dial, often integrated into the handle, allowing you to select the appropriate heat setting for different fabric types. Refer to the fabric care labels on your garments for recommended ironing temperatures.

• Low Heat: Synthetics, Silk
• Medium Heat: Wool
• High Heat: Cotton, Linen

4.2 Dry Ironing

For dry ironing, ensure the steam control is set to the 'OFF' position. Plug in the iron and set the temperature dial to the desired heat. Wait for the indicator light to turn off, signaling that the iron has reached the selected temperature.

4.3 Steam Ironing

For steam ironing, ensure the water tank is filled. Plug in the iron and set the temperature dial to a steam-appropriate setting (usually medium to high, e.g., wool, cotton, linen). Once the iron reaches the set temperature, adjust the steam control to the desired steam level. The iron will produce continuous steam for up to 25 minutes on a full tank.

4.4 Vertical Steaming

The iron can be used for vertical steaming to remove wrinkles from hanging garments, drapes, or upholstery. Hold the iron vertically a few inches away from the fabric and press the steam burst button as needed. Ensure the iron is at a high temperature setting for effective steaming.

5. Maintenance and Care

5.1 Self-Cleaning Function

The SINGER SteamLogic 7061 Iron includes a self-cleaning feature to remove mineral deposits and maintain optimal steam performance. To use this function:

1. Fill the water tank to the 'MAX' line.
2. Plug in the iron and set the temperature to the highest setting.
3. Once the iron reaches temperature, unplug it.
4. Hold the iron horizontally over a sink.
5. Press and hold the self-clean button (refer to your iron's markings for exact location). Hot water and steam will flush out from the soleplate, carrying away mineral buildup.
6. Continue until the water tank is empty.
7. Allow the iron to cool completely before storing.

5.2 Cleaning the Soleplate

If the soleplate becomes stained, clean it with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for iron soleplates. Never use abrasive scouring pads or metal cleaners, as these can damage the soleplate coating.

5.3 Storage

After each use, ensure the iron is unplugged and completely cool. Empty any remaining water from the tank. Store the iron upright in a safe, dry place, away from children.
