safety

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, such as:

• 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 fabric select dial and steam lever should
always be turned to “0/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.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

INSTRUCCIONES ESPECIALES

• If the iron is not operating normally, disconnect
from the power supply and have the iron
serviced by an authorized service center. Or call
Customer Service at 800-458-8407.

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

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

• If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
a 15-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,

Filling the Water Reservoir

You must fill the water reservoir with water to use
the SHOT OF STEAM®and SPRAY MIST®features
and to get steam out of your iron.

Tip: SUNBEAM tests each iron at the factory to
ensure that they function correctly. The test may
leave a small, harmless amount of water within
the water reservoir.

Before you fill the water reservoir, please consider the
following:

• 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 iron. Use demineralized
or distilled water, instead.

Important: When not ironing, always set the Steam
lever to 0/OFF and the Fabric Select Dial to OFF.

To fill the water reservoir:

1. Lift the Water Fill Hole Cover. The cover does

Ironing

Vertical Steam (Select models only)

The vertical steam feature allows your iron
to function as a garment steamer.

Tip: When using the vertical steam on clothing,
hang the clothing on a clothes hanger for best
results. Hanging curtains and drapes may also
be steamed.

To use Vertical Steam:

1. Make sure that the iron has heated up

(2 minutes).

2. Hold the iron in a vertical position, with the
iron close to but not touching the fabric
you want to steam.

3. With your other hand, pull the fabric tight.

4. Press the SHOT OF STEAM®button in

approximately 3-second intervals as you
move the iron across the wrinkled area.

WARNING: To prevent the risk of burns, keep
your hand away from the area being steamed.

WARNING: DO NOT steam garments while
wearing them; this may result in injuries.
