Filling the Water Reservoir

You must fill the water reservoir with water to use the SHOT OF STEAM® and SPRAY MIST® 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 Dial to ZERO and the Fabric Select Dial to MIN.

To fill the water reservoir:

1.Make sure the iron is unplugged. Set the Steam Dial to ZERO and the Fabric Select Dial to MIN.

2.Fill water cup with water. Pour water into iron water reservoir. Do not fill water reservoir

beyond maximum fill level.

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.
