FOLLOWING:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR
GARMENT STEAMER.
DANGER OF SCALDING
Please use caution when using the garment steamer.
The steam emitted from the openings is very hot.
POLARIZED PLUG:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As
a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Do not change the plug in any way.
