IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using the iron.
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. Use iron only for its intended use.
2. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in
water or other liquids.
3. Always 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
disconnect the iron.
4. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely
before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
5. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water
or emptying and when not in use.
6. Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been
dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
disassemble the iron. Contact our Consumer Service Department for
examination, repair or adjustment. Incorrect reassembly can cause a
risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
7. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or
near children. Do not leave iron unattended while 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 steam iron upside down - there may be
hot water in the reservoir.
9. This appliance is only for domestic and personal use.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15 amp. cord should be
used. Cords rated for less amper may overheat. Care should be taken
to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
