IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
When using an iron, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
2. When placing the iron on its iron rest (stand), ensure that the surface on which the stand is
placed is stable.
3. The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage or if it is
leaking.
4. Only use an iron for its intended use.
5. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
6. Always turn the iron OFF before plugging or unplugging the iron from the boiler. Never pull
on the cord to disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet; instead, grasp the plug and pull
on the plug to disconnect the iron.
7. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely before putting the iron
away. Coil the cord loosely around the iron when storing.
8. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when not in use. The iron must not be
left unattended while it is connected to the power supply. The plug must be removed from
the receptacle (outlet) before the water reservoir is filled with water.
9. Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical outlet before filling the boiler with water,
emptying the water from the boiler, and when the boiler is not in use.
10. Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or in the event the iron has been dropped or
damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Take it to a qualified
serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect assembly might result in a risk of electric
shock when the iron is used after reassembly.
11. Close supervision is required for any appliance used by or near children. Do not leave the iron
unattended while the iron is connected or on an ironing board.
12. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you
turn a STEAM IRON upside down – there might be hot water in the reservoir.
13. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate an iron on the same circuit with another high
wattage appliance.
14. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord with an ampere rating equal to or greater
than the maximum rating of the iron shall be used. A cord rated for less amperage can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care shall be taken to arrange the cord so
that it cannot be pulled or be tripped over.
