station supplied.
• For domestic use only. Not for outdoor or
commercial use.
• Remove the plug from the socket once you

hot for a while after you switch it off. Always
allow it to cool completely before you put it
away or clean it.
• Do not submerge in water or any other
liquid.
• Do not switch the appliance on unless there
is water in it.
• Water level must always be between the

handle and lid only. Be careful of hot steam
when opening the lid.
• Never touch the appliance or base station if
your hands are wet or damp.
Positioning the appliance
• Always place the appliance on a level, dry,
stable and heat-resistant surface.
• Always place the appliance at the back of
a kitchen counter and at a safe distance
from flammable objects such as curtains,
tablecloths or similar. The appliance must
not be placed or stored near other sources
of heat.
• Do not cover.
Cord, plug and mains socket
• Check regularly that neither the cord nor
plug is damaged and do not use if there is
any damage, or if it has been dropped on
the floor, dropped in water or damaged in
any other way.
• If the appliance 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 apparatus yourself.
• Remove the plug from the socket when
cleaning, or when the device is not in use.
Avoid pulling the cord when removing the
plug from the socket. Instead, hold the plug.
• Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge
of a table/counter, and keep it away from hot
objects and naked flames.
• Check that it is not possible to pull or trip
over the cord or any extension cord.
• Do not wind the cord around the appliance.
• Check the wire in the base fits into one of
the small incisions in the edge to ensure the
base station is stable, and not standing on
the wire.
• Check the on/off button can be switched
freely between "I" and "0" to ensure the
appliance can switch off automatically after
use.
