Special instructions
If your iron does not work, check the following points:

flat and left on an ironing board.

When ironing is complete, remove the plug from the socket,
empty any remaining water from the tank, and allow to cool
before storage.

damage even if the outside appears alright. Have it checked by a

operating your iron's steam and shot of steam functions before
