Important safety instructions
●
Before the appliance is used, the main
body including the power cord as well as
any attachment fitted should be checked
thoroughly for any defects or leakage.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, it
must no longer be used: even invisible
damage may have adverse effects on the
operational safety of the appliance.
●
Great care is necessary in using any
appliance, especially near children. Do
not leave the steam iron unattended
while connected or on an ironing board.
Steam Iron
Always remove the plug from the wall
socket and place the steam iron on its
base stand.
●
The appliance operates at very high
temperatures. Do not touch any part of
the appliance except the handle. Burns
can occur from touching the hot parts of
the housing or the soleplate and from hot
water or steam. When operating the
steam iron, hold only by the handle. Do
not allow steam to escape in the direction
of anyone nearby.
●
Do not allow the power cord to touch
hot surfaces. Do not coil the power cord
round the appliance.
●
Always place the appliance on a flat,
level and heat-resistant surface during
operation. Do not position the appliance
on or near hot surfaces or open flames
such as hot-plates or gas flames.
●
Always remove the plug from the wall
socket
- after use,
- in case of any malfunction,
- before cleaning the appliance.
●
When removing the plug from the wall
socket, never pull on the power cord;
always grip the plug itself.
●
This appliance is not intended for use by
any person (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lacking experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the
use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
●
Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
●
Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children, as they are a
potential source of danger e.g. from
suffocation.
●
Do not operate the appliance if excessive
force has been used to pull the power
cord. Damage cannot always be detected
from the outside; the entire unit should
therefore be checked by a qualified
technician before it is used again.
