WARNING
– To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock,
or injury to persons:
• Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam.
Use care when you turn a steam appliance upside down – there may be
hot water in the reservoir.
• To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents,
check appliance before each use by holding it away from body and
operating steam button.
• Use appliance only for its intended use.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in
water or other liquids.
• Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull
to disconnect.
• Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool completely
before putting away. Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing.
• Always disconnect appliance form electrical outlet when filling with water
or emptying, and when not in use.
• Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord, or if the appliance has
been dropped or damaged. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do
not disassemble or attempt to repair the appliance, take it to a qualified
service person for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly or
repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when
the appliance is used.
• Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near
children. Do not leave appliance unattended while connected.
• To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit.
• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10 ampere rated cord
should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care
should be taken to arrange the cord so that the cord cannot be pulled or
tripped over.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
