IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. 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 are closely supervised and instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
4. Use appliance only for its intended use.
5. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance
in water or other liquids.
6. Always turn the appliance to OFF ( ) before plugging or unplugging the appliance from the electrical outlet. Never pull on the cord to disconnect the appliance from the electrical outlet; instead, grasp the plug and pull on the plug to disconnect the appliance.
7. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces. Let the appliance cool completely before putting the appliance away. Coil the cord loosely around the appliance for storing.
8. Always disconnect the appliance from the electrical outlet before filling the appliance with water, emptying the water from the appliance, and when the appliance is not in use.
9. Always close the filling aperture when operating appliance.
10. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam
vents, check appliance before each use by holding it away from body and operating steam button.
11. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or in the event the appliance has been dropped or damaged or there are visible signs of damage or it is leaking. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the appliance. Take it to a qualified serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect assembly might result in a risk of electric shock when the appliance is used after reassembly.
12. The appliance must be used and rested on a stable surface.
13. When placing the appliance on its base, ensure that the surface on
which the steamer is placed is stable.
14. Do not leave the appliance unattended while the appliance is connected to an electrical outlet.
15. Burns can occur from touching steam holes, hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use caution when you turn a steamer upside down—there might be hot water in the reservoir.
16. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate an appliance on the same circuit with another high-wattage appliance.
17. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord with an ampere rating equal to or greater than the maximum rating of the appliance shall be used. A cord rated for less amperage can result in a risk of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care shall be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or be tripped over.

If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.
Be sure dual-voltage selector is in correct voltage position before operating. Before plugging in, read the information about dual-voltage operation contained in this manual.
