When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

1. Use iron only for its intended use.

2. To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.

3. The iron should always be turned to “O” before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

4. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away.

5. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying and when not in use.

6. 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 a qualified serviceman for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.

7. 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.

8. 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.

9. If the flatiron is not operating normally, disconnect from the power supply and contact your nearest authorized Sunbeam distributor.

10.

Your SUNBEAM®Iron is designed to rest on the heel. Do not leave the iron unattended. Do not set the iron on an unprotected surface, even if it is on its heel rest.

SPECIAL

INSTRUCTIONS

1. This is a 1200-Watt appliance*. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.

2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 10-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

For Products Purchased in the United States and Canada Only

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way; if the plug

does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact your nearest authorized Sunbeam distributor. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

*In Mexico, the iron runs at 127 Volts, 1350 Watts. If an extension cord is necessary,

a 13-Ampere cord should be used.

KNOW YOUR SUNBEAM® STEAM/SPRAY/DRY IRON

SHOT OF STEAM®Feature

• The SHOT OF STEAM®feature provides an extra burst of steam for deep penetration of stubborn wrinkles. The SHOT OF STEAM

feature can be used with dry or steam ironing provided the tank is at least 1/4 full of water and the temperature dial is set within the steam band.

• Allow the iron to heat for approximately 2 minutes.

• Press the SHOT OF STEAM

button several times to prime the pump.

•

Pump the

SHOT OF STEAM®button another three to four times in order to clean the unit.

This feature is now ready for use. The SHOT OF STEAM®feature

can be used continuously with just a short pause between shots. The SHOT OF STEAM®feature is most effective with the iron held in a horizontal position just above the fabric being ironed.

• If the tank runs dry, unplug the iron and refill with water. The iron may be filled with water while it is hot.

OTE

It may be necessary to re-prime the pump before using

the SHOT OF STEAM

feature again.

SPRAY MIST®Feature
