SAFETY MEASURES
Before operating the unit, read all the in-

• Before connecting the iron to the electric
network set the power supply switch in
correspondence with the voltage of the
electric network. After usage of the iron
with network voltage 120 V always set the
switch to the 240 V position, it will prevent
malfunction of the iron while connecting
the iron to the electric network with the
increased voltage.
• Do not connect the iron to the outlets, in-
tended for electric shavers (in long-dis-
tance trains).
• Before connecting the unit to the net-
work, unwind the power cord complete-
