•Due to the high wattage of the iron, only the specified cord set must be used.

•Should damage be observed on the CORDSET , it must be replaced. Continued usage is not allowed.

•If STAND BOTTOM ASSY  is provided without type plate information eg. Type number, voltage etc. When replacing the

Stand Bottom Assy, engrave the type number & voltage on the type plate with a sharp object.

•After the product has been repaired, it should function properly and has to meet the safety requirements & legal regulation

as laid down & officially established at this moment.

•The following tests are common checks that are conducted on a repaired product before it is returned to the consumer.

Check the soleplate temperature is within IEC requirement.

Soleplate temperature (Deg C)

Materials, for example

Test-

point

Minimum Maximum

  All fabric types

. Leakage current

Check that leakage current is within IEC requirement.

Measure leakage current between LIVE/NEUTRAL & EARTH.

IEC requirement is that at  V supply, the EARTH leakage current must be less than . mA.

. Water leakage / Functionality

Check that there is no water leakage from any part of product during operation.

Check that the functionality of the product (product dependent) eg. Steaming, variable steam, SOS, ASO etc is working

properly.

Further test and troubleshooting may still be required by Service Center to identify the root cause.

.. Before start SelfCheck mode, please do the following checking

. Make sure Soleplate is cold (<  °C)

. Make sure Boiler is cold (<  °C)

. Make sure Boiler is empty
