IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WHEN USING ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN
ARE PRESENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE
FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS,
ELECTROCUTION, FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS:
Read all instructions before using.
To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents, check appliance
before each use by holding it away from your body and operating unit.
Use appliance only for its intended use.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
Never pull cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool completely before putting away.
Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing.
Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and
when not in use.
Care should be taken when using the appliance due to the emission of steam.
Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord, or if the appliance has been dropped or
damaged. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the
appliance.
Return to Service Center for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly or repair
could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is used.
Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not
leave appliance unattended while plugged in.
Never steam a garment while it is being worn.
Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use care when you
turn a steam appliance upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.
