Read the instructions and keep them safe. If you pass the appliance on, pass on the
instructions too. Remove all packaging, but keep it till you know the appliance works.
important safeguards
Follow basic safety precautions, including:
1 This appliance must only be used by or under the supervision of a responsible adult.
Use and store it out of reach of children
2 Don’t put the appliance in liquid, don’t use it in a bathroom, near water, or
outdoors.
3 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.
4 Don’t iron clothing while it’s being worn – you’ll burn or scald the wearer (this is not
a joke – I’ve seen it happen).
5 Don’t touch the soleplate, and keep away from the steam coming from it.
6 Don’t use the iron in the vicinity of children.
7 Sit the base unit on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, preferably a purpose-built
“steam generator” type ironing board.
8 Don’t sit the base unit on a soft, carpeted, or upholstered surface, as this may block
the vents underneath the base unit.
9 Use the iron on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, preferably an ironing board.
10 Don’t leave the iron unattended while plugged in, or while it’s standing on the
ironing board. It could be knocked over by you, by a child, or by a pet.
11 Unplug before filling, before cleaning, and after use.
12 Don’t fill past the max mark on the reservoir, or water may escape in use.
13 Unplug the appliance when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. Let it
cool down fully before cleaning and storing away.
14 Don’t fit any attachment or accessory other than those we supply.
15 Keep the cables and steam pipe away from hot parts.
16 Keep the appliance and the cable away from hotplates, hobs or burners.
17 Don’t use the iron for any purpose other than those described in these instructions.
18 Take care not to scratch the soleplate – avoid buttons, zips, etc.
19 The appliance has a protective thermal fuse, which will blow if it overheats. If this
happens, the appliance will stop working, and must be returned for repair.
20 Don’t operate the appliance if it’s dropped or damaged or if it malfunctions or leaks.
21 If the cable is damaged, the appliance must be returned, in order to avoid hazard.
household use only
before using for the first time
• Remove any labels, stickers or packaging from the iron and soleplate.
• Don’t worry if the iron smokes a bit at first, it’ll stop as the element cures.
• Iron an old piece of cotton fabric, to clean the soleplate.
preparation
1 Check for textile care symbols (i j k l).
2 Iron fabrics needing low temperatures j first, then those that need medium
temperatures k, and finish with those needing high temperatures l (or max).
3 Sit the base on the end of the ironing board, and put the iron on the base.
