RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

To avoid potential risks, arrange for a defective appliance to be checked and possibly repaired by qualified technicians, or contact our Customer Service Department.
To prevent accidents, have defective plugs and/or power cables replaced immediately by an authorized specialist, or our Customer Service or a similarly qualified person.
When disconnecting the appliance from the power source, pull only on the plug itself, never on the cable.
Do not kink or crush the power cable, and route the cable so that it cannot be stepped on or tripped over.
After every use, before cleaning and when refilling with tap water, always remove the plug from the mains power socket.
Always unroll the power cable fully before switching on and do not use an extension cable.
Never touch the power cable or the plug with wet hands.
Stop using the appliance if the anti-kink protection on the power cable is damaged!
Always pull the plug out of the power socket before filling the water tank with water.
Do not open the housing of the steam iron. Have a defective steam iron repaired only by an authorized technician.
Never use the steam iron adjacent to water contained in a bath, shower, wash basin or other vessels. The proximity of water is hazardous, even if the appliance is switched off.
