overheating.
Always plug your steam generator into an

irreparable damage to the appliance and will
invalidate your guarantee.

ensure that it is correctly rated (15A) and is
fully extended.
Completely unwind the power cord from its
storage space before connecting to a socket.
If the electric power cord or the iron-unit is
damaged, it must be replaced by an Approved
Service Centre in order to prevent any danger.
