Using the shot of steam
The shot of steam can be used when dry or
steam ironing.
1. Ensure that the tank is at least ¼ full of
water.
2. Select the desired temperature using the
+/- buttons.
Note:
The Accura iron’s twin element
construction allows you to iron with maximum
steam, even on low temperature settings.
3. Press the shot of steam button several
times with the iron on the soleplate to
prime the pump.
Note:
If the water tank has run dry, it may be
necessary to re-prime the pump after filling
the iron with water.
Using the spray mist
The spray mist can be used when steam or
dry ironing to pre-dampen hard to iron fabrics.
1. Ensure that the tank is at least ¼ full of
water.
2. Press the spray button during ironing to
release a fine mist from the spray nozzle.
The 3 way safety auto-off feature
For total safety and peace of mind, the iron
will automatically switch itself off if left
unattended. It will switch off if left in the
ironing position for 30 seconds, or if it is
knocked onto its side. It will also switch off if
left unattended in the upright position for 15
minutes.
Should you leave the iron unattended, the
red light located between the +/- temperature
buttons will flash and a warning beep will
sound to alert you that the auto-off function
has been activated. ‘Standby’ will appear on
the LCD screen.
Power to the iron’s heating element will be
cut and the iron will start to cool.
To reset the safety auto-off feature, simply
move the iron. The power to the iron’s
elements will then reconnect and it will begin
heating again. Wait until the green light
illuminates before recommencing ironing.
After 30 seconds the frequency of the beep
alarm will decrease.
Abnormal digital function
If you find that your iron is incapable of
steaming or that the temperature control
buttons have become inoperable, a fault has
occurred. In the event of a fault, the red
temperature alert light located between the
+/- temperature buttons will flash. To reset
the iron, simply switch it off at the power
outlet. The iron can then be switched on
again and should operate normally. If the
fault persists contact the Sunbeam Consumer
Service line.
