•If the appliance is used for purposes other than those intended or used incorrectly, no liability can be accepted for any damage that may be caused.

•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given initial supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Child Safety

•Never leave the appliance unattended while in use. If children come into contact with a hot steam iron it could lead to serious burns.

•Keep children away from electrical appliances.

•Packaging material, e.g. plastic bags, should not be accessible to children.

•Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Safety in operation

•The steam iron must be used and rested on a stable surface.

•When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is placed is stable.

•Caution! When in use, the soleplate and cover of the steam iron reach high operating temperatures.

•When steam ironing, steam is emitted from the holes in the soleplate where if care is not taking, there is a risk of burns.

•A steam iron takes approximately 30 minutes to cool down. Only store the appliance once it is cool and after emptying any remaining water.

•Do not wind the cord around the soleplate while the steam iron is still hot.

•Always unplug the steam iron from the power outlet before filling or emptying the water tank.

Safety in cleaning and care

•Follow the cleaning instructions.

•Prior to cleaning, unplug the appliance first and allow the steam iron to cool completely.

•Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.

Operating

Before first use

0Remove any adhesive stickers, plastic covers or cardboard sleeves from the soleplate.

0Ensure that all adhesive is removed by rubbing the soleplate with a cloth dampened with methylated spirits.

0Fill the water tank (see following chapter) and empty the water. This will rinse out any foreign particles remaining from the manufacturing process.

3When turned on for the first time, your new steam iron may give off vapours for up to 10 minutes. This is due to the initial heating of the materials used. It is safe, not detrimental to the performance of the steam iron, and will not reoccur.

Filling the steam iron with water

1Before filling the steam iron with water ensure that the plug is removed from the power outlet. The steam iron can be filled with water while it is hot.

0Turn the steam selector (Fig. 1/G) to the "dry" setting.
