IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using your TOBi® Platinum™, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK - BE SURE TO READ & FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS

1. Read all instructions prior to usage.

2. Never force the plug into an outlet. Check that the main voltage corresponds to the
voltage indicated on the rating label.

3. To protect against fire, electric shock and injury, do not immerse TOBi®
Platinum™ in water or other liquids.

4. Always disconnect from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow unit to cool
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

5. Always disconnect TOBi® Platinum™ from outlet when filling with water, emptying
water tank, and when not in use.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. Stop use immediately if
TOBi® Platinum™ malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner.

7. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces. The power
cord should not be kinked or obstructed in any way.

8. Always turn the switch to the “OFF” position before plugging in or unplugging
the unit.

9. Never pull the power cord to disconnect it from an outlet. Instead, grasp the plug to
remove it from the outlet.

10. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water and steam, always check TOBi® Platinum™
for steam leaks. Make sure the steam nozzle is placed in its holder prior to switching on
and inspecting the base hose, handle and nozzle for leaks.

11. Do not use TOBi® Platinum™ outdoors.

12. Steam only in an up and down vertical motion (except when steaming bedding directly
on bed). Never use steamer in a horizontal position or tilt main unit into a backward
/vertical position, as this may result in water discharge.

13. Avoid contact with hot parts. Keep hands, hair, and clothing away from hot parts to
prevent burns.

14. TOBi® Platinum™ is not a toy. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is
used by or near children.

15. The use of accessory attachments that do not come with TOBi® Platinum™ may
result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.

16. Let appliance cool completely before storing.

17. Always keep the steam nozzle elevated above water container. Do not lay hose on
the floor.

18. Do not operate TOBi® Platinum™ without properly filling the water container.

19. Do not use TOBi® Platinum™ for other than its intended use.

20. Never attempt to steam clothing on body.
