reduce risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury: When using your appliance,
basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
– Read all instructions before use.- Use caution when handling this steam
iron. Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam.
Use 2 special care to avoid contact with hot water when turning the
product upside down to empty the reservoir.
– To reduce the risk of contact with hot water, test whether steam is ready
before each use while carefully holding the product away from your body. If no
steam appears, wait a few more minutes and test again. Do not look into the
appliance or use your hands or other objects to check for steam.
– Do not leave the appliance unattended while connected.
– To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water
or other liquids. – Unit is only meant to be used with recommended
accessories. Using other types of attachments may cause damage to the unit or
injury. – Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical outlet when
filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
– Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces. Let the appliance cool
completely before putting it away. Securely store the cord in provided storage
on base.
– Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet. Instead, grasp just the plug and
pull to disconnect. – Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord, or if
the appliance has been dropped or damaged. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the appliance. All repairs must
be performed by a qualified service professional. Incorrect reassembly or
repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when the
appliance is used.
– If Heating Indicator Light does not illuminate when Temperature Control Dial
is turned to a selected heat setting, unit is not operating normally.
Immediately unplug and have
a unit serviced by qualified service personnel.
– When filling Water Tank, only water should be used in the unit – other
cleaning agents could damage the unit or cause injury.
Distilled or demineralized water is highly recommended, in order to minimize
the potential build-up of mineral deposits. Do not overfill unit.
– Do not remove the water tank cap during use. Allow the unit to cool
completely before refilling. – Do not attempt to use the steam function
without properly filling
Water Tank.
– To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents,
check the appliance before each use by positioning it away from body and
pressing Steam Burst Button. Do not operate the unit if steam vents are
blocked.
– Do not allow the power cord to touch hot surfaces (such as Ironing Plate)
during use. Store cord inside the base.
– Always allow the unit to cool completely (at least 30 minutes) before
storing. Place the unit on base when cooling, to avoid heat damage to
surfaces.
– The iron must be used on a stable surface and rested on the base when not in
use.
– A loose fit between the wall outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause
overheating and distortion of the plug. Discontinue the use of the product in
this outlet. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlets.
– To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate
another high wattage appliance on the same circuit. – If an extension cord is
absolutely necessary, a 15 amp rated cord should be used. Cords rated for less
amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that the
cord cannot be pulled or tripped over.
– This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) To
reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety
feature.
– Use appliance only for its intended use.
– The iron must only be used with the BASE provided.
WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
