• Use iron only for its intended use.
• To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.
• T he Fabric Select Dial and Steam Lever 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.
• D o not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before storing. Loop cord loosely around
iron when storing.
• A lways disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling with water, cleaning, emptying or when not in use.
• D o 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 iron is used.
• C lose supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron
unattended while plugged in, turned on or on an ironing board.
• B urns can occur from contact with 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.
• I f 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 1 (800) 458-8407.
• Y our 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 the heel rest.
• T his is a high wattage appliance. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
• I f 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 extension cord so that
it cannot be pulled or tripped over.
For Products Purchased in the United States and Canada
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.

• Before ironing, check the garment label and follow manufacturer's instructions. If no instructions, start with a low-heat
setting and test by ironing a small area, and gradually increase heat.
• Sort garments by fabric type. Iron articles requiring a low-temperature setting and gradually work up the temperature range.
• When changing from a high-temperature setting to a lower one, allow 5 minutes for change.
• When steam ironing, use long, slow passes over the fabric to allow the steam to penetrate the fabric and the heat of
the soleplate to dry the moisture.
• Iron linen garments inside out to prevent shine. An ironing cloth or cotton fabric can be used to reduce shine.
• If the garment is lined, use a low heat setting.
• Ensure zippers are closed and flap is flat. Iron over the flap, holding the garment taut.
• Spray starch makes the job easier.

IRONING SHIRTS

• Begin with the collar and work toward the middle from the outer edges. Iron lengthwise, not in circles.
• Lay shoulder over narrow edge of the board and iron one side of the front. Then iron the shoulder, across the back
(below the collar line), the other shoulder and the remainder of the front.
• Iron sleeves and cuffs, working down from the underarm seams. To remove creases, shift the double layer of sleeve
fabric and iron out.
• Iron body of garment, from half of the front around the back, then second half of front. If your shirt does not open, slip
over end of ironing board and iron front and back in turn.
