IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:  
When using the steam function for the first  
time, do not direct the steam towards the  
laundry, as there could be debris from the  
steam vents.  
When using your iron, basic safety precautions  
should always be followed:  
Make sure the voltage used corresponds with  
that indicated on the rating label.  
Use the iron only as described in this instruc-  
tion manual.  
Filling with water:  
Make sure that both the variable steam con-  
e-  
g
trol and temperature control dial are in the  
“OFF” position.  
Close supervision is necessary when any appli-  
ance is used near children. Do not leave iron unat-  
tended while plugged in or on an ironing board.  
Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot  
water or steam.  
Hold the iron upright so that the water-filling  
inlet is in a horizontal position.

d
Pour water through the water filling inlet until  
the water reaches the “MAX” mark indicated  
on the side of the iron, and never fill above  
this mark.  
This appliance is not intended for use by per-
