Sunbeam 3035, 3040 User Manual
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
Use iron only for its intended use.
To protect against risk of electric shock, do not
immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
The iron should always be turned to “OFF”
before plugging or unplugging from outlet.
Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet;
instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces.
Let iron cool completely before putting away.
Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.
Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet
when filling with water or emptying and when
not in use.
Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if
the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid
the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the
iron. Take it to an authorized service center for
examination and/or repair. Incorrect reassembly
can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron
is used.
Close supervision is necessary for any appliance
being used by or near children. Do not leave
iron unattended while connected or on an
ironing board.
Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts,
hot water or steam. Use caution when you turn
a steam iron upside down - there may be hot
water in the reservoir.

taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be
pulled or tripped

Filling the Water Reservoir
You must fill the water reservoir with water to use

and to
Tip: Sunbeam tests each iron at the factory to
ensure that they
leave a small, harmless amount of water within
the water reservoir.
Before you fill the water reservoir, please consider
the following:
l While this iron was designed for use with tap
water, very hard water will reduce the performance
of the iron. If your water is very hard, Sunbeam
recommends that you use tap water the first time,
then consider using demineralized or distilled water
for subsequent use. You should use tap water once
a month, however, to maintain the iron’s optimal
steam performance.
.
Do not use water that has passed through a home
water softening system. This type of water contains
minerals that will decrease the performance and
shorten the life of your
distilled water, instead.
