Only connect the iron to a properly installed, earthed wall socket with the
same mains voltage rating as that indicated in the product's technical specifi-
cations.
• The used wall socket must be easily accessible so that you can quickly pull out
the mains plug whenever necessary.
•
Unwind the mains cord and connection cable completely when using the
appliance.
•
Do not use the appliance if the appliance itself or the mains cord shows any
visible sign of damage or if the appliance has been dropped or leaks.
•
As the connection cable is subject to considerable strain from movement
while ironing, check it for damage at regular intervals. If you notice damage to
any part of the steam iron set, stop using it until the damage has been
properly rectified.
•
Do not make any modifications to the appliance or change the mains cord
yourself. Only have repairs to the appliance or mains cord carried out by a
specialist workshop, the customer care service or a similarly qualified person.
Improper repair may result in considerable risk of injury to the user.
•
Unplug the mains plug from the wall socket ...
... before removing the water tank to fill or empty it,
... if a fault occurs during operation,
... during thunderstorms,
... if you stop ironing (even if only for a short while),
... after use,
... before cleaning the appliance.
Always turn the temperature and steam control dials to the lowest setting
first and switch off the appliance before unplugging the mains plug from the
wall socket.
Always pull on the plug, not the mains cord.
•
Do not insert anything into the openings on the appliance. It could come into
contact with live parts. The appliance could also overheat.
