4 * depending on model
• If the electrical cord becomes damaged, it must be immediately re-
placed by an approved Service Center to avoid any danger.
• The appliance should not be used if it has fallen, if it has obvious da-
mage, if it leaks or has functional irregularities. Never dismantle your
appliance; have it inspected by an approved Service Center to avoid any
danger.
• Always unplug your appliance before filling or rinsing the reservoir,
before cleaning it and after each use.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in or while
the soleplate remains hot (approximately 60 minutes).
• Your appliance gives off steam, which may cause burns, especially
when you are ironing on a corner of your ironing board. Never direct the
steam toward people or animals.
• Your iron should be used and placed on a stable surface. When you
put your iron onto its heel or the iron rest, make sure that the surface
on which you put it is stable.
• Any inappropriate use or use contrary to these instructions releases
the brand from all responsibility and renders the guarantee invalid.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
• 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 may overheat. Care should be
taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Environment protection first !
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be
recovered or recycled.
Leave it at a local civic waste collection point.
BEFORE USE
IMPORTANT Before doing anything else, remove the soleplate
protector Warning! Before using your iron with the steam function
for the first time, we recommend that you operate the steam in a
horizontal position for a few moments, away from your linen, i.e.
press the burst of Steam button a few times. During the first few
uses, a harmless odour and a small amount of smoke may be
noticable. This has no effect on the use of the iron and will cease
quickly.
