Sunbeam's Safety Precautions

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

Read all instructions

1. Use appliance only for its intended use.
2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
3. Always turn the appliance to "Off" before plugging or unplugging the appliance from the electrical outlet. Never pull the cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
4. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing.
5. Make sure unit is off, unplugged and allow it to cool completely before filling or cleaning.
6. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when filling with water or emptying, and when not in use.
7. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord, or if the appliance has been dropped or damaged. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the appliance, take it to a qualified service center for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly or repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is used.
8. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
9. Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use care when you turn a steam appliance upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.
10. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents, check appliance before each use by holding it away from body and operating steam button.
11. To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.
12. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a cord with an ampere rating equal to or greater than the maximum rating of the iron shall be used. A cord rated for less amperage can result in a risk of fire or electric shock due to overheating. Care shall be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or be tripped over.
13. When filling the water tank, watch for water that can drip onto the floor and cause you to slip and fall.

Pull the rubberized water-fill cover to open and pour tap water from the tap into the water-fill opening until it reaches the Max water level in water tank (Figure 2).

Warning: When filling the water tank, watch for water that can drip onto the floor and cause you to slip and fall.

1. Close the water-fill cover, push the water tank into the steamer body until a 'click' sound is heard.

Note: If you need to add water while steaming, unplug the steamer, wait until it cools and follow above steps. If a loud vibrating noise is heard, then the water level is low and needs to be refilled.

- When hanging garment on a door while steaming, be careful not to damage the door with steam.

- After use, empty water tank by turning it upside down to ensure all water empties out and avoid leaks.
