• Never direct the steam directly at mains cables or parts con-
taining electrical components (such as inside ovens, fridges, at
switches and lights, microwave ovens).
• Switch the device off and pull the mains plug out of the plug socket
– when the device is not in use,
– if a fault occurs while the device is in operation,
– before a thunderstorm,
– before you pour water into the water reservoir or empty it,
– before you clean and/or put away the device.
• Always pull the plug and never the mains cable.
• Use the device only in closed rooms.
• Do not use the device in rooms containing easily ignitable dust
or poisonous and explosive fumes.
• Do not operate the device in a very damp environment or in the
vicinity of combustible material.
• Immediately after ironing, place the still hot device down a mini-
mum distance of 15 cm away from walls, furniture and other
objects.
• In the interest of your own safety, inspect the device for damage
each time before you use it. Only use it if the device, adapter,
mains cable and plug have no signs of damage!
• In the event of damage/faults, switch the device off immediately.
• Do not make any changes to the device. Also do not replace
the mains cable or the adapter yourself. Only ever have repairs
to the device, adapter, cable and plug carried out in a specialist
workshop. Contact the customer service department if neces-
sary. Incorrect repairs may pose considerable risks to the user.
• Be aware of damage caused by fi re! Never iron on one spot for
too long. Never leave the hot bottom of the iron standing on the
fabric or another heat-sensitive surface!
Avoiding Damage to Material, Property and the Device
• Make sure that the mains cable is not squashed, bent or laid over
sharp edges and does not come into contact with hot surfaces.
• Only iron on a stable, fl at, heat-resistant and moisture-resistant
surface. We recommend that you use a standard ironing board.
