present, basic safety instructions should always be followed,
including the following:
Polythene bags over product or package may be dangerous. To
avoid danger of suffocation, keep this wrapper away from babies
and children. This bag is not a toy.
DANGER: When the unit is used in a bathroom, unplug it
after use since the proximity of water
presents a hazard even when the unit is switched off.
WARNING: Do not use this appliance in or near bathtubs,
showers, basins, or other vessels containing water.
• Do not immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not reach for an appliance that has fallen into water. Unplug
immediately.
• Take care to avoid contact between the hot surfaces of the unit
and the skin, paying particular attention to the face, neck and
hands.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Always unplug the appliance when not in use or before
cleaning. Do not leave unattended when plugged in or switched on.
Do not place on any heat-sensitive surface and always allow to cool
before storing away.

• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this
instruction booklet.

• This appliance is not intended for commercial use.
• Never drop or insert any object into an opening or hose.
• Do not use if unit has been dropped or damaged.
• Do not use outdoors or operate where aerosol (spray) products are
being used or where oxygen is being administered.
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
• Never yank the cord to disconnect from the power outlet, instead
grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not use this appliance if the supply cord is damaged. In the event
of damage, discontinue use immediately and contact your dealer
for instructions on returning it for examination or exchange.
• After use do not wrap the cord around the appliance as in time
this may cause the cord to fracture. Coil cord loosely around the
appliance in storage.
• While it is not recommended, if an extension cord is absolutely
necessary, a 15 amp rated power cord should be used. Cords rated
for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange
the power cord so that the cord cannot be pulled or tripped over.
• Always ensure that the voltage to be used corresponds to the
voltage marked on the unit.
• For additional protection, the installation of a residual device (RCD)
with a rated operating current not exceeding 30mA is advisable in
the electrical current supplying the bathroom and other parts of
the home. Ask your installer for advice.
CAUTION:
• Do not operate steamer without correctly filling the water
container.
• Do not overfill the steamer, since it can cause hot water to boil out
and burn.
• Never pour water directly into the reservoir. Put water only in
water tank.
• Only use clean cold water for filling this appliance. In hard water
areas, we recommend the use of distilled water.
• Always keep the hose and nozzle elevated above the water
container.

• Before unit is turned on, the hose must be extended, and then
place it in the hook.
• Do not place the steam nozzle directly onto any surface or on the
appliance power cord while it is hot or plugged in.
• Use with caution when changing attachments as they may contain
hot water or condensation from the nozzle. Attachments should
never be placed on the unit when in use or when preheating.
Ensure that the attachments are dry or cooled to avoid contact
with hot water.
• Attachments may get hot during use. Allow them to cool before
storing.
• When emitting steam, this appliance may cause burns if it is used
too close to the skin or eyes, or if it is used incorrectly. To reduce
the risk of contact with hot water emitting from the steam vents,
test appliance before use by holding it away from the body.
• Do not steam garments while on a person.
• Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or
steam. Use care when you turn steam appliance upside down
– there may be hot water in the reservoir.
• Use with caution when carrying steamer, as it contains hot water.
• Hose will be hot when in use. Avoid prolonged contact to avoid
burns.
