IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3. To protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury, do not immerse cord, plugs or appliance in water or other liquids.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into

wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to “off” then remove plug from wall outlet.

12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

13. Use extreme caution when disposing hot steam.

14. For household use only.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

Regarding your cord set: A. A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply

cord) is to be provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

B. Longer detachable power-supply or extension cords are

available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

C. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord

is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable powersupply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a rounding type 3-wire cord, and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter-top or table-top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

D. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

CAUTION

This appliance is for household use. Any servicing other than cleaning and user maintenance should be performed by an authorized service representative.

• Do not immerse base in water or try to disassemble.

• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not remove

the base. No user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.

• Check voltage to be sure that the voltage indicated on the

name plate agrees with your voltage.

• Never use warm or hot water to fill the water container!

Use cold water only!

• Keep your hands and the cord away from hot parts of the

appliance during operation.

• Never clean with scouring powders or hard implements.
