Safety information

The voltage of the power source must correspond with the details given on the type plate of the appliance.

▶ To avoid potential risks, arrange for a defective appliance to be checked and possibly repaired by qualified technicians, or contact our Customer Service Department.

To prevent accidents, have defective plugs and/or power cables replaced immediately by an authorised specialist, or our Customer Service or a similarly qualified person.

- When disconnecting the appliance from the power source, pull only on the plug itself, never on the cable.

▶ Never bend (kink) or crush the power cable, always route it in such a way that it cannot come into contact with hot surfaces and such that no one can step on or trip over it.

▶ After every use, before cleaning and when refilling with tap water, always remove the plug from the mains power socket.
▶ Always unroll the power cable fully before switching on and do not use an extension cable.
▶ Never touch the power cable or the plug with wet hands.
▶ Never use the steam iron adjacent to water contained in a bath, shower, wash basin or other vessels. The proximity of water is hazardous, even if the appliance is switched off.
▶ Under no circumstances should you immerse the steam iron in any liquid or permit liquids to penetrate into the housing of the steam iron. Do not expose the appliance to humidity and do not use it outdoors. If any liquid gets into the housing, disconnect the appliance from the mains power socket immediately and have it repaired by a qualified technician.
▶ Do not open the steam iron housing. Have a defective steam iron repaired only by an authorised technician.
