Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR IRON.
• Do not leave the iron unattended while it is
plugged into the power outlet.
• The iron must be used and rested on a stable
surface.
• Do not leave a hot iron within reach of children.
If they come into contact with a hot iron it
could lead to serious burns.
• Iron only on an ironing board.
• When placing the iron on its stand, ensure that
the surface on which the stand is placed is
stable.
• The iron is not to be used if it has been
dropped, if there are visible signs of damage or
if it is leaking.
• An iron takes approximately 30 minutes to
cool down. Allow the iron to cool completely
before storing.

soleplate while the iron is still hot.

Using your Ultura Dry Iron
Before first use
2.Turn the temperature dial to the desired
setting by aligning the setting on the dial with
the temperature indicator. The thermostat
light will illuminate to indicate that the iron
is heating to the selected temperature. When
the thermostat light goes out the iron is at
the selected temperature and is ready to iron.
Remove any adhesive stickers, plastic covers
or cardboard sleeves from the soleplate.
Ensure that all adhesive is removed by
rubbing the soleplate with a cloth
dampened with methylated spirits.
NOTE: When turned on for the first time,
your new iron may give off vapours for up
to 10 minutes. This is due to the initial
heating of the materials used. It is safe, not
detrimental to the performance of the iron,
and will not reoccur.
NOTE: When the temperature dial is changed
from a high setting to a lower temperature
setting during ironing, the thermostat light
will go out immediately. This indicates
that the iron is cooling to the selected
temperature. To ensure that the iron has
reached the selected temperature and is not
too hot, wait until the thermostat light comes
on again and then goes out before ironing.
Using your iron
1.Insert the 3 pin plug into a 230/240 volt
power outlet and turn the power on.
Care and Cleaning
After each use
1.Turn the power off and remove the plug
from the power outlet.
Cleaning the Teflon® Platinum Pro non-stick
soleplate
The non-stick coating reduces sticking of
fabrics and starches to the soleplate. Do
not iron over sharp objects such as buttons,
studs and zippers, as these will scratch the
surface.
2.Allow the iron to cool before winding
the cord around the built-in cord wrap.
Storage
Always store the iron on its heel rest.
Wipe the soleplate with a damp soft cloth
after each use. If polyester has burnt to the
soleplate, iron a damp cotton cloth while hot.
NOTE: Do not store the iron with the soleplate
facing down, or in the carton.
Cleaning
Caution: Do not use scouring pads, abrasives
or harsh cleaners to clean your Teflon®
Platinum Pro soleplate, as these will scratch
and damage the surface.
To clean the exterior of your iron, wipe
over with a damp soft cloth and wipe dry.
Caution: Do not use harsh abrasives, chemical
cleaners or solvents to clean the exterior of
your iron as these will damage the surface.

Ironing Guide
Selecting ironing temperature
Always read garment labels and follow the
manufacturer’s ironing instructions.
• When reducing the temperature to iron
sensitive fabrics, allow approximately 2
minutes for the iron to cool to the new
setting.
• Pure woollen fabrics (100% wool) can be
ironed with the temperature dial set to
Wool. Use an ironing cloth to prevent shine
marks on the fabric.
• Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen and silk
are best ironed with an ironing cloth to
prevent shine marks.
• Never iron areas of a garment where
perspiration marks are visible, as the heat
of the iron will fix the stains, making them
permanent.
Hints for easier ironing
• Sort articles to be ironed according to the
type of fabric. This will reduce the need
to adjust the temperature to suit varying
garments.
• Start with garments requiring lower
temperatures and work your way through to
items requiring higher temperatures.
• If you are unsure of the fabric content of
a garment, test a small area such as a
seam or inside hem section before ironing
a visible area. Start with a low temperature
and gradually increase the heat to find the
best setting for ironing the garment.
