IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using your iron, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
lRead all instructions before use.
lUse iron only for its intended use.
lTo protect against risk of electric shock, do not
immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
lThe 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.
lDo not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let
iron cool completely before putting away. Loop
cord loosely around iron when storing.
lAlways disconnect iron from electrical outlet
when filling with water or emptying and when
not in use.
lDo 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.
lClose supervision is necessary for any appliance
being used by or near children. Do
rtot
leave
iron unattended while connected or on an
ironing board.
lBurns 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.
lIf the iron is not operating normally, disconnect
from the power supply and have the iron
serviced by an authorized service center.
lYour 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.
Special instructions
lThis is a 1200 watt appliance.” To avoid a
circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit.
lIf an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a
lo-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 a
qualified electrician. 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.

Filling the water reservoir
You must fill the water reservoir with water to use
the Spray Mist and Shot of Steam 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
control and the Fabric Select dial to OFF.
To fill the water reservoir:
1.
Make sure the iron is unplugged and that both
the Fabric Select dial and the Steam control are
set to OFF.
5
2.
Slide the water reservoir cover open and hold
the iron at an angle.
3.
Fill the water reservoir with tap water until it
reaches the maximum fill level (10 ounces).
WARNING; To prevent the risk of burns, be careful
when filling a hot iron with water. Hot metal parts,
hot water and steam can cause injuries.
4.
Close the water reservoir cover.
6
Ironing
Dry ironing
1.

3.
Turn the Fabric Select dial to the Dry ironing
fabric setting you desire (Silk or Synthetics) and
allow the iron to heat for 2 minutes. While the
iron is heating, make sure it is sitting on its heel
rest on a stable, protected surface.
Tip: Refer to the Ironing guide on page 16 for
the recommended setting for your fabric.
Steam ironing

reservoir” on page 5.
Plug the cord into a 120 volt AC outlet.
The Power Indicator will light.
Turn the Fabric Select dial to the Steam ironing

Wool) and allow the iron to heat for 2 minutes.
While the iron is heating, make sure it is sitting
on its heel rest on a stable, protected surface.
Tip: Refer to the Ironing guide on page 16 for
the recommended setting for your fabric.
