When using an iron, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
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. Always turn the iron
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 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. Always 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 examination 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 children. 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
upside down - there might be hot water in the reservoir.
STEAM IRON
9. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate an iron on the same circuit with another high wattage
appliance.
10. 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. A cord rated for less amperage can result in a risk
of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care shall be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot
be pulled or be tripped over.
