IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:
Read All Instructions Before Use
• Only use an iron for its intended use.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
• Always turn the iron to “Off” before plugging or unplugging the iron from the electrical
outlet. Never pull on the cord to disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet; instead,
grasp the plug and pull on the plug to disconnect the iron.
• Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely before putting the
iron away. Coil the cord loosely around the iron when storing.
• Always disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet before filling the iron with water,
emptying the water from the iron, and when the iron is not in use.
• Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or in the event the iron has been
dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or
attempt to repair the iron. Take it to a qualified service center for examination and
repair. Incorrect assembly or repair might result in a risk of electric shock, a risk of fire
or injury to person when the iron is used after reassembly or repair.
• Close supervision is required for any appliance used by or near children. Do not leave
the iron unattended while the iron is connected or on an ironing board.
• Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution
when you turn a STEAM IRON upside down – there might be hot water in the
reservoir.
• In the event the iron is not operating properly, disconnect the iron from the electrical
outlet and have the iron serviced by qualified service personnel.
• This iron must not be left unattended while it is connected to the supply mains
• The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.
• The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage
or if it
is leaking.
• To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents, check
appliance before each use by holding it away from body and operating steam button.
• To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the
same circuit.
• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15-ampere cord should be used.
Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the
extension cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
