• If the socket and power cable plug are incom-
patible, the socket should be changed by a qua-
lified professional only.
• The safety of this appliance is guaranteed only
if correctly connected to a proper and effective
earth connection as specified by current electri-
cal safety standards and regulations.
The manufacturer cannot be considered respon-

earth connection on the power supply line.
If in doubt, consult a qualified professional.
• Do not leave the iron unattended when plugged
in.
• Never leave the appliance filled with water in a
room where it will be subject to a temperature

exceed the power limit indicated on the adapter.
• This appliance is intended for household use

out by unqualified personnel.
