IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDSsafety
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, such as:
•READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
•Use iron only for its intended use.
•To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
•The fabric select dial and steam lever should always be turned to “0/OFF” before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
•Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
•Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use.
•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. Take it to an authorized service center for examination and/or repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
•Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while plugged in or turned on or on an ironing board.
•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 reservoir.
