• 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 “O/Off” before
plugging or unplugging from out let. 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.
Toavoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron. Take it to an
authorized service center for examination and/or repair. Incorrectreassembly
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
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.

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.
