IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed including the following:
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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storing.
Loopcordlooselyaroundironwhenstoring.
• Alwaysdisconnectironfromelectricaloutletwhenfillingwithwater,cleaning,
emptyingor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ironisused.
• Closesupervisionisnecessaryforanyappliancebeingusedbyornearchildren.
Donotleaveironunattendedwhilepluggedin,turnedonoronanironingboard.
• Burnscanoccurfromcontactwith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.
• Iftheironisnotoperatingnormally,disconnectfromthepowersupplyand
havetheironservicedbyanauthorizedservicecenterorcallCustomer

ironisdesignedtorestontheheelrest.Donotleavetheiron
unattended.Donotsettheirononanunprotectedsurface,evenifitisonthe
heelrest.
• Thisisahighwattageappliance.Toavoidacircuitoverload,donotoperate
anotherhighwattageapplianceonthesamecircuit.
• Ifanextensioncordisabsolutelynecessary,a15-amperecordshouldbeused.
Cordsratedforlessamperagemayoverheat.Careshouldbetakentoarrange
theextensioncordsothatitcannotbepulledortrippedover.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For Products Purchased in the united states and canada
