• Connect only to 230V or 240V power outlet.
• Do not let the power cord hang over the
edge of a bench or table, touch hot
surfaces or become knotted.
• To protect against electric shock, do not
immerse the power cord, power plug or
appliance in water or any other liquid or
allow moisture to come in contact with
the part, unless it is recommended in the
cleaning instructions.
• The appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• It is recommended to regularly inspect the
appliance. To avoid a hazard, do not use
the appliance if power cord, power plug or
appliance becomes damaged in any way.
Return the entire appliance to the nearest
authorized Kambrook service centre for
examination and / or repair.
• Any maintenance other than cleaning
should be performed at an authorised
Kambrook Service Centre.
• This appliance is for household use only.
Do not use this appliance for anything
other than its intended use. Do not use
in moving vehicles or boats. Do not use
outdoors. Misuse may cause injury.
• The installation of a residual current device
(safety switch) is recommended to provide
additional safety protection when using
electrical appliances. It is advisable that a
safety switch with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA be installed in
the electrical circuit supplying the appliance.
See your electrician for professional advice.
• Always turn the appliance to the OFF position,
switch off at the power outlet and unplug at
the power outlet when the appliance is not
in use.
• Before cleaning, always turn the appliance to
the OFF position, switch off at the power outlet,
unplug at the power outlet and remove the
power cord, if detachable, from the appliance
and allow all parts to cool.
• Do not place this appliance on or near a heat
source, such as hot plate, oven or heaters
• Position the appliance at a minimum
distance of 20cm away from walls, curtains
and other heat or steam sensitive materials
and provide adequate space above and
on all sides for air circulation.
• The iron incorporates a thermal safety fuse to
protect the iron from over heating. However
the iron and steam station should not be left
unattended while it is connected to the
power outlet. Special care should always
be taken when there are children in the
home/vicinity of the steam station.
• Do not touch the iron rest when in use
and just after use. Ensure the iron rest is
cool before attempting to touch or
prior to storing the steam station.
• Never use the vertical steam shot while
clothes are on the body or direct the steam
towards people.
• If the steam iron is set to a low temperature on
the temperature control (i.e. synthetic or silk)
there may be leakage from the soleplate. This
is due to the steam station temperature not
being high enough to vaporize the water and
create steam. Therefore, ensure that the steam
control is always set to correspond with the
setting on the temperature control as seen in
Table A (see section ‘Setting the Temperature’)
• Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces.
• Keep the steam station clean. Follow the
cleaning instructions provided in this book.
