Extra long cord with
swivel cord outlet
The swivel cord outlet is ideal for left or right hand use,
and provides greater versatility and ease of movement
when ironing. The flexible grommet protects the cord
from fraying.
Stable heel rest
Extra large heel rest keeps the iron stable on the
ironing board.
Cord wrap facility
The built-in cord wrap facility allows you to wind the
cord around the heel for neat and tidy storage of the
cord when the iron is not in use.
Boost light
Illuminates to indicate that the iron is heating
and goes out when it has reached the temperature
selected on the temperature dial. The boost
light cycles on and off during ironing as the iron
maintains the selected temperature.
Temperature indicator light
Align the desired setting with the temperature
indicator light.
Temperature dial
Allows you to select the desired
temperature for each garment. The
adjustable temperature dial also indicates
the amount of steam recommended for use
on each temperature setting.
Variable steam
The six-position steam dial allows you to select the
desired steam output for each garment. Alternatively,
select the DRY setting to iron without steam.
Removable steam valve
The steam valve is connected to the steam
dial, and is removable to allow for easy
cleaning. Cleaning it regularly removes scale
build-up that can affect its performance.
(For instructions on how to clean the steam
valve see the care and cleaning section
on page 8.)
Soft grip handle
The rubber soft grip handle allows for increased
comfort during ironing.
Power ON Light
Illuminates to indicate that the iron is
connected to the power outlet and the
power is turned on. The power ON light
doubles as the steam dial indicator.
Drip-stop steam system (SR5555 & SR5540)
The drip-stop steam system automatically stops
water flowing to the steam chamber should the
temperature fall too low to generate steam.
This prevents dripping, even at low temperatures.
