When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on
which the stand is placed is stable.
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.

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.

Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar
applications such as by clients in hotels, motels, bed and
breakfasts, and other residential-type environments.
WARNING!
Shock Hazard: This product is provided with a
grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a grounded outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by
using an adapter. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, have an
electrician replace the outlet.
PLEASE READ BEFORE FIRST USE:
• During first use of the iron, it may appear to smoke. This will
stop and does not indicate a defect or hazard.
• Many irons spit or sputter during the first few uses with tap
water. This happens as the steam chamber becomes
conditioned. This will stop after a few uses.
• Steam vents should be cleared before first use. Prepare iron
for steam ironing; then iron over an old cloth for a few minutes
while letting iron steam.
