IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1. Read all instructions before use.

2. Ensure the voltage on the Rating Label is the same as that in your home.

3. Use the iron only for its intended use.

4. The iron should always be turned to off before plugging or unplugging from

the wall socket. Never yank the cord to disconnect from the wall socket;

instead. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

remove the plug from the socket and stand the iron on its base.

children. Do not leave the iron unattended while connected or on an ironing

board.

or other liquids.

putting away, loop cord loosely around the iron when storing.

11. Always disconnect the iron from the electrical socket when filling with water

or emptying and when not in use.

12. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance

on the same circuit.
