it is perfectly insulated. Never immerse the appliance in water.
• The appliance must not be left unattended when switched on. Unplug

• If the power cord shows signs of wear, it must be replaced by a strictly
identical cord, sold by an approved Service Centre (see attached list).
• If your curling tong is dropped, have it checked by an approved Service
Centre before using it again. Non-visible damage to the appliance may be
detrimental to your safety.
• Your curling tong requires special tools for repair. We recommend that
you do not disassemble it. For any servicing problem, see your usual

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS - FOR U.K. ONLY. SAFETY NOTES - FOR REWIREABLE OR MOULDED PLUG.
The mains lead of this appliance may be already fitted with a BS 1363 13 A plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a 13
A ASTA approved BS 1362 fuse must be used.
If your socket outlet is not suitable for the plug, then the plug must be removed (cut off if it is a moulded on plug) and an
appropriate one fitted. Warning : dispose of a plug that has been cut from the power supply cord, as such a plug is hazar-
dous if inserted in a live 13 A socket outlet elsewhere in the house.
Always replace, the fuse cover after fitting a fuse. The plug must NOT be used if the cover is omitted or lost until a replace-
ment is obtained - make certain that only the correct fuse cover is used and fitted.
For plugs with a detachable fuse cover the replacement must be the same as the colour insert in the base of the plug, or as
directly by the embossed wording on the base of the plug.
If the detachable fuse cover is lost, a replacement may be purchased from Rowenta Service Centre (see enclosed Service
Information leaflet). Information for supply may also be obtained from the plug manufacturer.
