WARNING – risk of scalds, burns and fire
•
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in or still hot.
•
Hot steam will emerge if the pressurised steam container is opened during or
immediately after use.
Only open the pressurised steam container for cleaning purposes, never
during use.
Let the appliance cool down completely and empty the water tank before
unscrewing the lock on the pressurised steam container.
•
Never replace the pressurised steam container lock with another one.
•
Never iron garments whilst they are being worn!
•
Never point the soleplate at human beings or animals. This is particularly
important when ironing with steam.
•
The discharging steam is extremely hot! Touching the hot soleplate and the
discharging steam causes burns and scalds.
•
Let the appliance cool down completely before you clean it or put it away.
•
Proceed with caution when removing the water tank and take care not to
touch the hot soleplate on the iron.
CAUTION - risk of slight injuries and material damage
•
Only iron suitable fabrics. Always follow the care instructions on the fabric
label. The ironing symbols shown on the temperature control dial are
standard care symbols.
• Polyacrylics, acetate-polyamide mixtures and similar materials must not be
ironed.
•
Place the steam iron set on an even, level surface from which it cannot fall.
•
Route the mains cord in such a way that it cannot be tripped over.
•
Only iron on an ironing board or an ironing table.
•
Always place the iron on the iron rest on the base station, even for short
breaks between ironing.
