is also recommended that all potentially dangerous
components are rendered harmless to prevent children
hurting themselves when playing with the apparatus.
Danger due to electricity
• Do not leave the iron and the power cord within the
reach of children under the age of 8 years if the iron is
connected to the outlet or while it is cooling.
• Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket,
ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate
matches the local voltage supply.
• Always connect the iron to an earthed socket.
• DO NOT IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR
OTHER LIQUIDS.
• Do not start ironing if your hands are wet or if you are
barefoot.
Danger of damage originating from other causes
• Fill up the tank with water before starting up the
appliance. Be sure to unplug the appliance before
pouring water into the tank.
• Turn on the appliance only when it is in working
position.
• The appliance may give out a little smoke when used
for the first time; this transitory effect is perfectly normal
and is due to the fact that some of components have
been slightly lubricated.
• During use, rest the appliance onto a horizontal
surface.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is
connected to the power supply.
• The appliance must be used and rested on a stable
surface.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the
surface on which the stand is placed is stable.
• Before leaving the iron unattended, even for a short
time, turn off the appliance, always unplug it and place
it on support base (E).
• Water might get out from the steam holes if the steam
button is pressed before the appliance has reached the
best temperature or that the iron is hot.
