IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the
following:

1. Read all instructions carefully.

2. Use iron only for its intended use.

3. To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse the iron in
water or other liquids. Always turn
the iron to "OFF" before plugging in
or unplugging from outlet.

4. Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet. Grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.

5. Do not allow cord to touch hot
surfaces. Let iron cool completely
before putting away.

6. Always disconnect iron from
electrical outlet when filling with
water, emptying, or when not in use.

7. Do not operate iron with a damaged
cord, or after the iron has been
dropped or damaged in any manner.
To avoid the risk of electric shock,
do not disassemble the iron. Return
the iron to the EURO-PRO
Operating LLC for examination and
repair. Incorrect reassembly can
cause the risk of electric shock when
the iron is used.

8. Close supervision is necessary for
any appliance being used by or near
children. Do not leave iron
unattended while connected or on an
ironing board.

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is

wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do no attempt to
defeat this safety feature.

9. Burns can occur from touching 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.

10. This appliance is for household

use only.

WARNING: The power cord on this

product contains lead, a chemical
known to the State of California to
cause birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Wash hands

after handling.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.

2. If an extension cord is absolutely
necessary, use a 15-ampere cord.
Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Use care to arrange the
cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over.
