INSTRUCCIONES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURIDAD
Cuando se utilizan aparatos eléctricos, especialmente en la presencia de los niños, siempre se debe tomar ciertas medidas de seguridad, incluyendo las siguientes:
❑LEA TODAS LAS INSTRUCCIONES ANTES DE UTILIZAR EL PRODUCTO.
❑Utilice la plancha solamente con el fin previsto.
❑A fin de evitar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico, no sumerja la plancha en agua ni en ningún otro líquido.
❑Siempre ajuste la plancha a la posición de apagado (OFF) antes de conectarla o desconectarla de la toma de corriente. Nunca tire del cable para desconectar el aparato; sujete el enchufe y hale con cuidado.
❑No permita que el cable entre en contacto con las superficies calientes. Espere que la plancha se enfríe bien antes de guardarla. Enrolle el cable holgadamente alrededor de la plancha.
❑Siempre desconecte la plancha cuando no esté en uso y cuando llene o vacíe el tanque de agua.
❑No utilice la plancha si el cable o el enchufe presentan algún desperfecto, si la ha dejado caer o dañado. Para evitar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico, no desarme la plancha. Acuda a una persona de servicio calificada. El reensamblaje incorrecto de la plancha puede ocasionar el riesgo de un choque eléctrico.
❑Se requiere supervisar de cerca todo aparato eléctrico al ser utilizado por o en la presencia de los niños. Nunca descuide la plancha mientras permanece enchufada ni sobre la tabla de planchar.
❑Pueden ocurrir quemaduras si se tocan las partes metálicas, el agua caliente, o el vapor. Tome precaución al invertir una plancha de vapor ya que puede haber agua caliente dentro del tanque. Evite los movimientos bruscos para no derramar agua caliente.
