IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your iron, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions carefully.
2. Use iron only for its intended use.
3. To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse the iron in water
or other liquids.
4. Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet. Grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.
Let iron cool completely before putting
away.
6. Always disconnect iron from electrical
outlet when filling with water, emptying,
or when not in use.
7. Do not operate iron with a damaged
cord, or after the iron has been dropped
or damaged in any manner. To avoid the
risk of electric shock, do not
disassemble the iron. Return the iron to
EURO-PRO Operating LLC for
examination and repair. Incorrect
reassembly can cause the risk of electric
shock when the iron is used.
8. Close supervision is necessary for any
appliance being used by or near children.
Do not leave iron unattended while
connected or on an ironing board.
9. Burns can occur from touching hot
metal parts, hot water or steam. Use
caution when you turn a steam iron
upside down; there may be hot water in
the reservoir.
10. Never use or rest iron on an unstable
surface.
11. While the iron is hot, never set iron on an
unprotected surface - even if it is on its
heel rest.
12. CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR OTHER INJURY, before
filling the iron with water, make sure that
the plug is removed from the outlet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1
POLARIZED PLUG : This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
For Household Use Only
13. WARNING: Never fill the iron with
fabric conditioner, starches or any
other solution, as these will
damage the steam mechanism. Do
not use contaminated water.
14. CAUTION: TO AVOID FIRE, never
leave iron unattended while it is
plugged in.
15. CAUTION: TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK, never use the
iron in a location where it can fall
or be pulled into water or any
other liquid. If the iron falls into
water or any other liquid, unplug it
immediately. DO NOT reach into
the water or liquid to remove it.
16. WARNING: Never use scouring
pads, abrasive or chemical
cleansers or solvents to clean the
exterior or soleplate of your iron.
Doing so will scratch and/or
damage the surface.
17. CAUTION: DO NOT aim iron at
face, towards yourself, or anyone
else while using or adjusting
steam. Burns or serious injury
may occur.
18. Always store your iron standing
upright, not on the soleplate. If stored
face down, even the smallest amount
of moisture will cause the soleplate to
corrode and stain.
19. Always hold the plug when rewinding
the power cord. Do not allow plug to
whip when rewinding.
20. This appliance is for household
use only.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely
necessary, use a 15-ampere cord.
Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Use care to arrange the
cord so that it cannot be
pulled or tripped over.
