IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse cord, plugs,
or the appliance in water or other liquid. Do not allow cord or hose
to be crimped. Do not pull or stretch cord or hose around sharp
corners or edges.
4. Do not overfill unit with Water. Fill to 27oz. (800 ml) maximum.
Overfilling may result in burns from spilling water or possible electric
shock.
NOTE:
Only fill Water Reservoir with water. Other cleaning agents
will damage the unit and may cause injuries.
5. Do not leave unit unattended while plugged in or not in use.
6. Do not use appliance for other than its intended use.
7. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children, pets and plants. Steam produced by the unit is hot. Care
must be taken to avoid burns or other injuries. Never point the nozzle
at people or pets.
8. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents,
check appliance before each use by holding the Steam Nozzle away from
body and pressing the Steam Button. Do not operate if Steam Vents are
blocked.
9. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or if the iron
has been dropped or damaged. To avoid risk of electrical shock, do not
disassemble unit. Return appliance to Salton for examination, repair
or adjustment. See Warranty section.
10. Do not let cord touch hot surfaces.
11. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
12. Let appliance cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely
around appliance when storing.
13. To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit.
14. The lighted On/Off Switch should always be set to the ‘Off’ position
before plugging or unplugging unit from wall outlet. Never yank cord
to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
