The steam emitted from the
openings is very hot.

POLARIZED PLUG:

This appliance has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than

Incorrect reassembly can cause
the risk of electric shock when the

5. To reduce the risk of contact with
hot water emitting from the steam
vents, check the appliance before
each use by holding it away from
