IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WHEN USING ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY WHEN
CHILDREN ARE PRESENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE
FOLLOWING:
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS,
ELECTROCUTION, FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS:
• Readallinstructionsbeforeusing.
• Toreducetheriskofcontactwithhotwateremittingfromsteamvents,checkappliance
beforeeachusebyholdingitawayfromyourbodyandoperatingunit.
• Useapplianceonlyforitsintendeduse.
• Toreducetheriskofelectricshock,donotimmersetheapplianceinwaterorotherliquids.
• Neverpullcordtodisconnectfromoutlet;instead,graspplugandpulltodisconnect.
• Donotallowcordtotouchhotsurfaces.Letappliancecoolcompletelybeforeputtingaway.
Loopcordlooselyaroundappliancewhenstoring.
• Alwaysdisconnectappliancefromelectricaloutletwhenfillingwithwateroremptying,and
whennotinuse.
• Donotoperateappliancewithadamagedcord,oriftheappliancehasbeendroppedor
damaged.Toreducetheriskofelectricshock,donotdisassembleorattempttorepairthe
appliance.
• ReturntoHoMedicsServiceCenterforexaminationandrepair.Incorrectreassemblyorrepair
couldcauseariskoffire,electricshock,orinjurytopersonswhentheapplianceisused.
• Closesupervisionisnecessaryforanyappliancebeingusedbyornearchildren.Donot
leaveapplianceunattendedwhilepluggedin.
• Neversteamagarmentwhileitisbeingworn.
• Burnscouldoccurfromtouchinghotmetalparts,hotwater,orsteam.Usecarewhenyou

• Alwayskeepthehoseandnozzleelevatedabovethewatercontainer.
• Toreducelikelihoodofcircuitoverload,donotoperateanotherhighwattageapplianceon
thesamecircuit.
• Donotuseanextensioncordtooperatetheappliance.Ifanextensioncordisabsolutely
necessary,a15ampereratedcordshouldbeused.Cordsratedforlessamperagemay

DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether
the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, you may
temporarily use an adapter (such as the one shown in Figure
B) until you have a proper outlet (such as the one shown in
Figure C) installed by a qualified electrician.
