IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using your appliance, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before using the generator.
1. Use appliance only for its intended use.
2. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse
the appliance in water or other liquids.
3. The appliance should always be turned off before
plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank the cord
to disconnect from outlet, instead grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.
4. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when
filling with water or emptying when not in use.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool
completely before putting away.
6. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if
appliance has been dropped or damaged.
7. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble
the appliance. Ship it to the nearest authorized Rowenta
approved service center for examination and repair.
Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock
when the appliance is used.
8. Not intended for use by children. Close supervision is
necessary for any appliance being used near children.
Unsupervised use can result in fire or personal injury. Do
not leave appliance unattended while plugged in, on an
ironing board, or while it is still hot.
9. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water
or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam generator
upside down. There may be hot water in the reservoir.
10. Never attempt to unscrew the boiler cap while the
appliance is in use. The strong steam pressure could result
in burns. Only unscrew when generator is cold or there is
no more pressure in the boiler.
11. Do not direct steam at people, animals or iron clothes
while they are being worn.
12. The use of accessory attachments is not recommended by
Rowenta and may result in fire, electric shock or personal
injury.
13. Always put the iron with the soleplate down on the iron
rest, never resting on its heel.
