When using your appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents, check appliance before each use by testing the steam trigger. Make sure you hold the latter away from body and children. Use appliance for its intended use only. This product has been designed for domestic use only. Any commercial use, inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, the manufacturer accepts no responsibility and the guarantee will not apply. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool completely before storing away. Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing. Do not direct steam at people, animals or iron clothes while they are being worn. Never pull on the cord to unplug from outlet, instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet when filling with water, emptying or when not in use. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15A rated cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may over-heat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that the cord cannot be pulled or tripped over. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if appliance has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the appliance.

Use care when you empty a steam appliance, there may be hot water in the tank or inside the appliance. For use in the U.S.A., the voltage selector* switch should be placed in the 110- 120 volt position. For use in several other countries, the voltage selector switch may need to be placed in the 220-240 volt position. Confirm the voltage available

• depending on model 1800129617 DR6000 U1_110 x 154 30/10/13 10:45 Page12 at each location before using the appliance.

• Remove any packaging from the ap- pliance.

• Do not plug in or turn on until assembly is complete. Dual voltage (depending on model)

• The appliance can work on both, 110-120V or 220-240V, AC systems. Be sure the dual voltage selector is in the correct voltage position before plugging in. To do this, switch the selector which is above the handle to the right position - fig.6 bis.

• This is a 110-120V dual voltage appliance and may be used in the United States and abroad without an electrical converter. An adapter plug may be necessary when using appliance in foreign countries.

• If needed, plug the steambrush into the correct adapter plug for the specific coun- try and plug assembly into electrical out- let. It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be produced the first time the appliance is used. This will quickly disappear. Warning! Never switch selector while unit is plugged in. Dual voltage selector in wrong voltage position: If the voltage selector is set to 220- 240V in a 110-120V supply, the performance of the steambrush will be reduced. Never set the voltage selector to 110- 120V in a 220-240V supply as this can damage the product. 1800129617 DR6000 U1_110 x 154 30/10/13 10:45 Page2ES
