• 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.
It is equipped with 2 safety systems: a pressure release valve which, in the event of malfunction, releases
any excess steam and a thermal fuse to prevent any overheating.
• You iron must only be connected to:
- an electrical system with voltage between 220 and 240 V. Connecting to the wrong voltage
can cause irreversible damage and will invalidate the guarantee.
- an earthed socket. If you are using an extension lead, ensure that it is correctly rated (10 A) and has
an earth connection.
• Any damaged power cord or iron-base steam hose must be replaced by an Approved Service Centre to
avoid any danger or the risk of injury.
Caution :
• Your iron's soleplate and the rest-plate on the base unit can become very hot and cause burns: never
touch these parts.
• Model with professional iron: always place the iron flat on its rest-plate, never on its heel.
• Your appliance gives off steam which can cause burns.
• Handle your iron carefully, particularly when using the vertical function.
• Always keep the steam generator out of children's reach.
• Never leave the appliance unattended:
- when it is connected to the power supply;
- until it has cooled down (around 1 hour).
• Always unplug your appliance:
- before filling up or rinsing out the boiler
- before cleaning it
- after each use.
• Before unscrewing the boiler cap, always wait:
- until the generator has completely cooled down and been unplugged for 1 hour;
- or until there is no more pressure in the boiler.
• Never try to unscrew the boiler cap while the boiler is in use : the steam coming out under high pressure
could cause burns.
Caution :
If the safety cap falls or the appliance receives a violent blow, the setting of the pressure release valve may
be altered. In that case, have the boiler cap replaced at an Approved Service Centre.
• Never immerse your steam generator in water or any other liquid. Never put it under the water tap.
• When rinsing the boiler, never fill it up directly under the tap.
• If the appliance falls, receives a violent blow or is not operating correctly, do not dismantle it: take it to an
Approved Service Centre, to avoid any danger.
