INTRODUCTION:
To get the best out of your new steam
iron, please read through these
instructions carefully before using it for the
first time. We also recommend that you
keep the instructions for future reference,
so that you can remind yourself of the
functions of your steam iron.
SAFETY MEASURES
• Incorrect use of the steam iron may
cause personal injury and damage to
the kettle.
• Use the steam iron for its intended
purpose only. The manufacturer is not
responsible for any damage resulting
from incorrect use or handling (see also
Guarantee Terms).
• The steam iron may only be connected
to 230 V, 50 Hz.
• The steam iron or cord must not be
submerged in water or any other liquid.
• Never leave the steam iron unattended
when in use and keep an eye on
children.
• Allow the steam iron to cool down
completely before putting it away.
Always keep the steam iron out of the
reach of children.
•Protect the solepate, and NEVER run it
over metal or similar surfaces, as this
will damage it.
• This steam iron is not suitable for
commercial or outdoor use.
• Always keep the steam iron at a safe
distance from combustible objects
when in use.
• Never leave the steam iron in a place
where the temperature might drop
below freezing point.
• Do not cover the steam iron.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the
table edge, and keep it away from hot
objects and naked flames.
• Check regularly that neither the cord
nor plug is damaged and do not use
the steam iron if it is, or if it has been
dropped or damaged in any other way.
•If the steam iron, cord or plug is
damaged, it must be inspected and, if
necessary, repaired by an authorised
repair engineer, otherwise there is a
risk of electric shock. Never try to
repair the appliance yourself.
• Remove the plug from the socket after
use, when cleaning, and when filling
the water reservoir.
•Avoid pulling the cord when removing
the plug from the socket. Instead, hold
the plug.
• Make sure that it is not possible to pull
or trip over the steam iron cord or any
extension cord.
• Do not put more than 120 ml of water
in the reservoir. Do not add anything to
the water. Ordinary tap water can be
used.

PRIOR TO FIRST USE
• Remove the protective film from the
soleplate (9).
• Some parts of the steam iron were
oiled during manufacture and these will
therefore smoke slightly when the iron
is first used. This is entirely safe, and
the smoke will disappear once the
steam iron has been used a few times.
Test it on a piece of material or similar
before using it on clothes.
