Special instructions
If your iron does not work, check
the following points:
•
Has the temperature control been
set to the required temperature?
Is the plug in its socket? Is the
plug itself or the socket faulty?
(Check by plugging in another
appliance).
WARNING: When not in use,
your iron should never be placed
flat and left on an ironing board.
•
To prevent damage to the textile
being ironed, follow the
temperature guide carefully. (Test
the inside of the hem of the
garment).
•
When ironing is complete, remove
the plug from the socket, empty
any remaining water from the
tank, and allow to cool before
storage.
•
If you drop or severely knock your
iron this could cause internal
damage even if the outside
appears alright. Have it checked
by a qualified electrician.
•
Ensure the product is set to the
correct voltage.
