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 10-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated
for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot
be pulled or tripped over.
For Products Purchased in the United States
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.
* In Mexico the iron runs at 127 Volts, 1350 Watts. If an extension cord is necessary a 13-Ampere cord should be used.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
❏
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS IRON.
❏
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 iron 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.
❏
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 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.
❏
Your SUNBEAM
