• Don’t handle the plug or use the iron with wet hands.
• Don’t pull or carry the iron by the power cord.
• Don’t use the power cord as a handle, pull the power cord around corners or
sharp edges or close a door over the power cord. Don’t unplug the iron by pulling

• Don’t aim the steam jet at people, animals, plants and electrical components
or wires. Never touch the steam jet (there is a risk of scalding).
• Don’t use the iron with incorrect voltage as this may result in damage or injury
to the user. The correct voltage is listed on the ratings label.
• Don’t use the iron on clothing that are still being worn on the body.

Do’s
• Always switch off, unplug from mains and allow the iron to cool
down before carrying out any maintenance or troubleshooting.
• Always stand the iron in the upright position between uses and
keep the iron moving whilst in use. Leaving the soleplate in contact
with any surface for an extended period of time will cause damage.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on
which the stand is placed is stable.
• Always use the iron on a heat resistant, stable, level surface.
• Always unplug the iron from the mains before the water tank is
filled with water.
• Always fill the water tank with water only. Never add perfume,
descaler or products containing alcohol. Filling the water tank with
hot or boiling water will invalidate the warranty.
• Always ensure the soleplate and surfaces are free from grit and debris before use.
• Always carry the iron by the handle.
• Always empty the water tank when the iron is not in use.
• Always replace the fuse in the plug with a British 13amp fuse. Always protect
the power cord from heated surfaces or near open flames.
• Use only CE approved 13amp extension cords, non-approved extension cords
can overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the extension cord as it could be
a trip hazard.
• Before storing make sure the iron has fully cooled, the water tank is empty
and wrap the power cord around the iron. Store the iron in a cool, dry area
away from children.
Please keep instructions for further use and use only as instructed in this guide.
