IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
Read all instructions before using the iron.
1. Use iron only for its intended use.
2. To protect against a risk of electric shock,
do not
immerse the iron in
water or other liquids.
3. The iron should always be turned to Min. before plugging or unplugging
from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet, instead grasp
plug and pull to disconnect.
4. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before
putting away. Loop cord loosely around handle when storing.
5. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling iron with water
or emptying and when not in use.
6. Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped
or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the
iron. Ship it to the nearest Rowenta Appliance Service Center for examina-
tion and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock
when the iron is used.
7. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near
children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing
board.
8. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam.
Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot
water in the water tank.
9. The use of accessory attachments is not recommended by Rowenta and
may result in fire, electric shock or personal injury.
