IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

• U se iron only for its intended use.
• T o 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 "O/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 plugged in or turned on 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.
• If the iron is not operating normally, disconnect from the power supply and call your nearest Sunbeam Hospitality Distributor at 1-888-878-6232, extension 66598.
• Y our SUNBEAMiron 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

• 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 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.

Place the iron on top of the wrinkle and press the SHOT OF STEAM® button each time you would like an extra burst of steam. The SHOT OF STEAM® feature may be used continuously with just a short pause between shots.

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.

Touse 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 for 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.

If you leave the iron:

• in a horizontal position without moving it, or accidentally tip the iron over, it will automatically stop heating after 30 seconds. The Power Indicator will blink to let you know that the iron has stopped heating.
• in a vertical position (on its heel rest) without moving it, the iron will automatically turn off after 15 minutes. The Power Indicator will blink to let you know that the iron has stopped heating.

IMPORTANT: The Power Indicator will continue to blink until the iron is unplugged or reset.

Toreset the iron:

Move the iron back and forth and allow it to reheat for 2 minutes. The indicator will stop blinking and the iron will start heating again.

WARNING: The patented MOTION SMART® Auto-Off is a safety feature, not a recommended means for turning your iron off. See "Caring for Your Iron After Use" (on Page 6) for information on turning off your iron and storing it safely between use.

ANTI-CALCIUM SYSTEM (Select Models Only)

The Anti-Calcium System is a permanent system located inside the water reservoir.

This system removes calcium from the water and reduces calcium build-up on the soleplate.

RETRACTABLE CORD SECTION (Select Models Only)

1. When winding the cord, hold the plug with one hand, and press the winding button with the other hand. (Failure to hold plug may cause plug to fly.)
2. The cord reel is compact for multi-layer winding of the cord. In case cord is not fully rewound, pull out the cord and steer cord evenly on the reel.
3. In case the cord is not pulled out easily, pull cord firmly.
4. Select the amount of cord desired before plugging into an electrical outlet.
5. Do not allow children to use retractable cord feature as the cord may cause injury.

CARING FOR YOUR IRON AFTER USE

1. Turn the Steam Lever to Off Dry and Fabric Select Dial to Off.
2. Unplug the iron from the power source.

WARNING: NEVER yank the power cord when unplugging the iron.

This can damage the cord.

STORING YOUR IRON

1. Allow the iron to cool.
2. If you do not use your iron on a daily basis, empty the water reservoir after each use for a longer iron life. To do so, unplug the iron, turn the iron upside down, open the fill hole cover, and allow water to flow from the fill hole. Shake the iron gently to remove trapped water drops.
3. Loosely loop the power cord around the heel rest and store the iron on its heel rest.
   IMPORTANT: Wrapping the cord around the iron too tightly can damage the cord.

Ttp: When not ironing, always set the Steam Lever to O/Off (Dry) and the Fabric Select Dial to Off.

CLEANING THE SOLEPLATE

Clean the soleplate if starch or other residue accumulate.

Toclcan the Solcplate:

1. Allow the iron to cool and then wipe it with a soft, damp cloth.
   WARNING: DO NOT use abrasive cleansers, scouring pads or vinegar to clean the soleplate. This will damage the finish.
2. Run the iron over an all-cotton cloth to remove any residue.

USING THE SELF-CLEANING FEATURE

You should use the Self-Cleaning feature once a month to maintain the optimal performance of your iron.

Touse the Self-Cleaning feature:

1. Move the Steam Lever back and forth from Off (Dry) several times to remove debris and minerals from the Steam Valve. This keeps water flowing into the steam chamber.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE ANTI-CALCIUM SYSTEM

The STEAM MASTER iron houses an anti-calcium filter in the reservoir, which eliminates impurities from the water.

Toprolong the efficiency of this filter:

1. Unplug the iron and allow it to cool.
2. Locate the water cup that accompanied the iron. Fill it with water to the Sunbeam logo in the top right corner. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water and fill the water reservoir with this solution.
3. Leave the solution in the water reservoir for 15 minutes, then empty it.
4. Fill the water reservoir a second time with the salt water solution and empty it again after 15 minutes.
5. Fill the tank with fresh water to rinse and empty.

The Anti-Calcium System should be cleaned approximately once a month.

IRONING TIPS

Always read garment labels and follow the manufacturer's ironing instructions.
- Sort the articles to be ironed according to the type of fabric.
- You should first iron garments requiring low temperature (e.g., silks and synthetics) to avoid damaging them with an iron that is too hot.
- If you are unsure of the fabric content of the garment, test a small area, such as a seam or facing, before ironing a visible area. Start with a low temperature and gradually increase the heat to find the best setting.
- When changing the temperature from a high setting to a low setting, allow approximately 5 minutes for the lower temperature to be reached.
- When steam ironing, use long, slow passes over the fabric. This will allow the steam to penetrate the fabric while allowing the heat of the soleplate to dry out the moisture.
- T o iron linens, turn garment inside out. Be careful not to use an iron that is too hot because the lining may melt or stick to the soleplate.
- T o iron zippers, use an ironing cloth or make sure the zipper is closed and iron over the flap. Never iron directly over an unprotected zipper.
- Use the Ironing Guide (on Page 8) to select the best setting and method for the fabric you plan to iron.
