When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Use iron only for its intended purpose.
3. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron,
cord, or plug in water or other liquids.
4. The iron should always be turned to OFF before plugging or
unplugging from outlet. Never yank the cord to disconnect from
outlet; instead grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely
before storing and loop cord loosely around iron.
6. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling or empty-
ing water and when not in use.
7. 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. Call our toll-free customer service number
for information on examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly
can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.
8. 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.
9. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or
steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down, as
there may be hot water in the reservoir.
