Safety instructions
This appliance complies with the technical rules and standards for safety currently in
force (Electromagnetic Compatibility, Low Voltage, Environnement).
This appliance is not designed to be used by people (including children) with a
physical, sensory or mental impairment, or people without knowledge or experience,
unless they are supervised or given prior instructions concerning the use of the
appliance by someone responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Caution, before plugging in your iron, check that your mains voltage corresponds to
the voltage indicated on the information panel on the iron. Connecting to the wrong
voltage may cause irreversible damage to the iron and will invalidate the guarantee.
This iron must always be plugged into an earthed socket. If using a mains extension
lead, ensure that it is correctly rated. If you use an extension lead, check that it is
adapted to the power indicated on the information panel on the iron.
If the electrical cord becomes damaged, it must be immediately replaced by an
Approved Service Centre to avoid any danger.
The appliance should not be used if it has fallen, if it has obvious damage, if it leaks
or has functional anomalies. Never dismantle your appliance: have it inspected by an
Approved Service Centre, so as to avoid any danger.
Never immerse your iron in water !
Do not unplug your appliance by pulling on the cord. Always unplug your appliance:
before filling or rinsing the reservoir, before cleaning it, after each use.
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to a power source; if it has
not cooled down for approximately 1 hour.
Your appliance gives off steam, which may cause burns, especially when you are
ironing on a corner of your ironing board. Never direct the steam towards people or
animals.
Your iron should be used and placed on a stable surface. When you put your iron onto
its iron rest, make sure that the surface on which you put it is stable.
This product has been designed solely for domestic use. Any inappropriate use or use
contrary to the instructions releases the brand from all responsibility and renders the
guarantee invalid.
Environment protection first !
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or recycled.
Leave it at a local civic waste collection point.

Before use
BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE, REMOVE THE SOLEPLATE PROTECTOR.
Before using the iron for the first time:
– Heat the appliance at the maximum setting without water (see D).
A little smoke and a slight smell may be emitted, but this is only tem-
porary. The water tank can then be filled directly with untreated tap
water using a jug (see C).
– Each time you begin ironing, allow the iron to emit steam for at least
the first 1 minute. During this time press the power steam button from
time to time to release several bursts of steam. Any particles released
through the soleplate during first use are harmless and are due to
the newness of your iron.
