When using an iron, basic precautions should always be followed, in-
cluding the following:
Read all instructions before using
1. Only use an iron for its intended use.
2. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water
or other liquids.
3. lways turn the iron OFF before plugging or unplugging the iron from
the electrical outlet. Never pull on the cord to disconnect the iron from
the electrical outlet; instead, grasp the plug and pull on the plug to dis-
connect the iron.
4. Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces. Let the iron cool completely
before putting the iron away. Coil the cord loosely around the iron when
storing.
5. lways disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet before filling the
iron with water, emptying the water from the iron, and when the iron is
not in use.
6. Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or in the event the iron
has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do
not disassemble the iron. Take it to a qualified serviceman for exami-
nation and repair. Incorrect assembly might result in a risk of electric
shock when the iron is used after reassembly.
7. Close supervision is required for any appliance used by or near chil-
dren. Do not leave the iron unattended while the iron is connected or
on an ironing board.
8. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam.
Use caution when you turn a STE M IRON upside down – there might
be hot water in the reservoir.
9. In the event the malfunction indicator goes on, the iron is not opera-
ting properly. Disconnect the iron from the electrical outlet and have
the iron serviced by qualified service personnel.
10. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate an iron on the same cir-
cuit with another high wattage appliance.
11. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord with an ampere
rating equal to or greater than the maximum rating of the iron shall be
used.
cord rated for less amperage can result in a risk of fire or electric
