• Fill up the tank with water before starting up the appliance. Be sure to unplug the
appliance before pouring water into the tank.
• Turn on the appliance only when it is in working position.
• The appliance may give out a little smoke when used for the first time; This tran-
sitory effect is perfectly normal and is due to the fact that some of components
have been slightly lubricated.
• During use, rest the appliance onto a horizontal surface.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to the power supply.
• The appliance must be used and rested on a stable surface.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that the surface on which the stand is
placed is stable.
• Before leaving the iron unattended, even for a short time, turn off the appliance,
always unplug it and place it on support base (E).
• Water might get out from the steam holes if the steam button is pressed before
the appliance has reached the best temperature or that the iron is hot.
• The appliance is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible sign of
damage or if it is leaking. Do not use the appliance if the power cord or the plug
are damaged, or if the appliance is faulty. To prevent any accident, all repairs, in-
cluding the replacement of the power cord, must be carried out by an Authorised
Service Centre or, in any case, by qualified personnel.

• Do not touch the metal parts of the iron when in operation and for several minutes
after it is turned off since it could cause burns.
