Your steam generator iron is an electrical appliance: it must be used under normal conditions of use. It is designed for domestic use only.

It is equipped with 2 safety systems: a pressure release valve designed to avoid excessive pressure. In the event of malfunction, the valve releases excess steam. a thermal fuse to avoid overheating.

Always plug your steam generator iron: into a mains circuit with voltage between 220 V and 240 V (Alternating current only), a socket outlet with an earth connection.

Connecting to the wrong voltage may cause irreparable damage to the appliance and will invalidate your guarantee.

Completely unwind the power cord before plugging into an earthed socket outlet.

7

The soleplate of your iron, the steam cord, and the iron rest on the base unit can reach extremely high temperatures, and can cause burns: do not touch them. Never touch the electrical power cords with the sole plate of the iron.

Always use a vented/mesh ironing board to prevent water spots on clothes and to avoid hot steam venting sideways.

Your appliance emits steam, which can cause burns. Always handle the iron with care, especially when ironing vertically. Never direct the steam towards people or animals. Never iron clothing on a person, always use a hanger. Never iron in a seated position with your legs under the iron board.

Never immerse your steam generator iron in water or any other liquid. Never place it under a running tap.

What water to use? Your appliance has been designed to function using untreated tap water.

If your water is very hard, we recommend you use a mix of 50% untreated tap water and 50% distilled water available in hardware stores.

Types of water not to use: Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation.

The types of water listed below may contain organic waste, mineral or chemical elements that can cause spitting, brown staining or premature wear of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries, air conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled water. These types of water should not be used in your TEFAL iron. Also only use distilled water as advised above.

Always remember: Never use rainwater or water containing additives (like starch, fragrance or water from domestic appliances).
