BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST

At Breville we are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the
safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition we ask that you exercise a degree of
care when using any electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE

• Carefully read all instructions before

operation and save for future reference.

• Remove and safely discard any

packaging material and promotional
labels before using the appliance for the
first time.

• To eliminate a choking hazard for young

children, remove and safely discard the
protective cover fitted to the power plug
of this appliance.

• Do not use the iron for anything other

than its intended use.

• Always turn the Variable Temperature

Control to minimum, then switch off
at the power outlet, then unplug the
appliance when not in use.

• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.

• Allow the iron to cool completely before

storing in an upright position on its heel.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. High

temperatures are generated during use,
which could cause burns. Always use
the handle and warn others (especially
children) of the possible dangers of burns
from steam, hot water or hot soleplate,
especially when ironing vertically.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended

when in use.

• The iron must be used and rested on a

stable surface

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

• When placing the iron on its stand,

ensure that the surface on which the
stand is placed is stable.

• The iron is not to be used if it has been

dropped, if there are visible signs of
damage or if it is leaking.

• Do not allow the iron to lay flat on the

soleplate when stored as water may
seep through the steam holes, if the tank
is not empty.

• Always test the iron on a small, discreet

part of the fabric to be ironed to ensure
the temperature is not set too high.

• Always store the iron in the upright

position on its heel. Do not leave the iron
unattended while connected or on an
ironing board.

• Do not use outdoors or in bathrooms.

• Do not store the iron with water in the

water tank. Always empty the tank after
use. Ensure the iron is cool before storing
or wrapping the cord around the storage
heel facility.

• Always switch off at the power outlet, then

unplug the appliance from the outlet:

- Before filling with water or emptying it.

- Before leaving it unattended.

- Before cleaning and maintenance,

unless otherwise specified in
this booklet.

- Immediately after use.

properly grounded.

• The installation of a residual current

device (safety switch) is recommended to
provide additional safety protection when
using electrical appliances. It is advisable
that a safety switch with a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30mA

DO NOT OPERATE THE
APPLIANCE ON AN
INCLINED SURFACE.

BREVILLE ASSIST ™ PLUG

Your Breville appliance comes with
a unique Assist™ Plug, conveniently
designed with a finger hole in the power
plug for easy and safe removal from
the wall outlet. For safety reasons it is
recommended you plug your Breville
appliance directly into its own electrical
outlet on a dedicated circuit separate from
other appliances. If the electric circuit is
overloaded with other appliances, your
appliance may not function properly.

Use in conjunction with a power strip or
extension cord is not recommended
