SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely
necessary, use a 15-ampere cord.
Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Use care to arrange the
cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over.
CAUTION! TO PREVENT ELECTRIC
SHOCK OR OTHER INJURY
, before filling
the iron with water, make sure that the
plug is removed from the outlet.

Never fill the iron with
fabric conditioner, starches or any other
solution, as these will damage the steam
mechanism. Do not use contaminated
water.
