Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR IRON  
• Always unplug the iron from the power  
outlet before filling or emptying the water  
tank.  
• 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.  
• 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.  
• This iron features an “auto-off” function,  
which is an additional safety feature  
designed to disconnect power to the heating  
element if the iron has not been used for a  
certain period of time.  
• Do not wind the cord around the soleplate  
while the iron is still hot.  
• Do not leave the iron unattended while it is  
plugged into the power outlet.  
Sunbeam is very safety conscious when  
designing and manufacturing consumer  
products, but it is essential that the product user  
also exercise care when using an electrical  
appliance. Listed below are precautions which  
are essential for the safe use of an electrical

Features of your Sunbeam  
Ultura Iron  
Extreme shot of steam  
Squeezing the shot of steam trigger instantly  
produces a concentrated, high-pressure shot of  
steam to remove stubborn wrinkles.  
Vertical shot of steam  
Squeezing the shot of steam trigger with the iron  
in an upright position produces a vertical shot of  
steam, which is ideal for steaming curtains and  
suits, and removing creases from delicate fabrics.  
Fine spray mist  
Pressing the spray button provides a fine mist  
spray to dampen hard-to-iron fabrics.  
Water tank with easy-fill water inlet  
Holds 300ml of water for continual high  
steam performance without having to refill  
the tank regularly.  
O N  
T
Drip-stop steam system  
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.  
Full length button groove  
For ironing around buttons.  
2400 watts for fast heat up  
Provides faster initial heat up and rapid  
heat recovery during ironing. The 2400W  
element helps to maintain your selected  
temperature, and provides superior shot  
of steam output.  
Resilium® non-scratch soleplate  
Resilium® is a durable, scratch resistant surface  
that provides a superior glide and prevents  
rucking. Exclusive to Sunbeam, this premium  
soleplate features 172 steam holes to maximise  
steam distribution.

Digital thermostat  
The digital thermostat provides precise  
temperature control, allowing you to select  
the exact temperature recommended for each  
garment. It eliminates temperature overshoot  
and minimises temperature fluctuations.  
This ensures consistently superior results and  
prevents scorching.  
Temperature alert  
The light located on the iron handle indicates  
when the iron soleplate has reached the  
selected temperature.

LCD screen  
The illuminated LCD displays the selected  
fabric setting.  
Safety auto-off  
The iron automatically switches itself off if  
left in the ironing position (horizontal) for 30  
seconds, or in the heel rest position (vertical)  
for 15 minutes. (For more information on the  
safety auto off feature see page 7).  
Variable steam dial  
Allows you to select the desired steam output  
for each garment. Alternatively, select the DRY  
setting to iron without steam.  
Anti-calc  
The built-in anti-calc cartridge removes  
minerals from tap water to prevent scale build  
up inside the soleplate and steam chamber,  
prolonging the life of your iron.

Using your Sunbeam Solus® Iron  
Before first use  
Using your 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.  
Fill the water tank and empty the water. This  
will rinse out any foreign particles remaining  
in the water tank from the manufacturing  
process.  
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.  
1.Insert the plug into a 230/240 volt power  
outlet and turn the power on. The LCD  
screen and the orange temperature alert  
light (located on top of the handle) will  
illuminate to indicate that the iron is  
switched on and heating.  
2.Use the temperature +/- buttons to select  
the desired temperature. The bars on the  
LCD will flash as the iron heats up to the  
selected temperature setting. As each  
incremental temperature is reached the bars  
will display solidly. When the temperature  
alert light changes to green, the iron has  
reached the selected temperature and is  
ready to use.  
NOTE: When the temperature is changed from  
a high setting to a lower temperature setting  
during ironing, the temperature alert light will  
change to red. 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 temperature alert light illuminates green  
before ironing.  
Filling the iron with water  
Before filling the iron with water ensure the  
power is turned off and the plug is removed  
from the power outlet. The iron can be filled  
with water while it is hot.  
Place the iron on its heel and open the water  
inlet cover.  
Slowly pour water into the water inlet until  
the maximum water level is reached. Do not  
exceed the maximum water level indicator.  
Push the water inlet cover firmly to close.  
NOTE: The anti-calc cartridge and special  
soleplate design allows you to use tap water  
with your Solus iron without affecting the  
steam performance. However in very hard  
water areas, Sunbeam recommends the use  
of distilled water, or water which has been  
demineralised.  
Dry ironing  
Follow steps 1 and 2 above.  
3.Select DRY on the steam dial.  
This will cut off the steam flow if there  
is water in the tank.  
Steam ironing  
Follow steps 1 and 2 above.  
NOTE: When steam ironing, ensure that the  
temperature is set to the silk setting or above,  
and that the tank is at least 1/4 full of water.  
3.Turn the steam dial to the desired  
steam setting.  
For best performance, we recommend the use  
of Sunbeam Water Demineraliser, available  
from selected retailers. This will produce up to  
30 litres of demineralised water.  
Do not fill the iron with fabric conditioner,  
starches or any other solution as these will  
damage the steam mechanism. Do not use  
contaminated water.

1.Ensure the tank is at least 1/4 full of  
water.  
2.Select the desired temperature and wait  
until the temperature alert light  
illuminates green.  
The spray mist can be used whether dry or  
steam ironing to pre-dampen hard to iron  
fabrics.  
1.Ensure the tank is at least 1/4 full of  
water.  
3.Squeeze the shot of steam trigger several  
times with the iron on the soleplate to  
prime the pump.  
2.Press the spray button during ironing to  
release a fine mist from the spray nozzle.  
The 3-Way safety auto-off feature  
The safety auto-off mechanism automatically  
turns the iron off if you forget.  
Once the iron is moved the power will  
reconnect. Allow the iron to heat until the  
temperature alert light illuminates green,  
and continue ironing as normal.  
The iron will automatically shut off if left  
on the heel rest (vertical) for 15 minutes  
without being moved, or in the ironing  
position (horizontal) for 30 seconds, or if it  
is knocked onto its side (See figure 2).  
15 mins  
Should you leave the iron unattended, the  
LCD screen and the red temperature alert  
light will flash, and a warning beep will  
sound to let you know that the auto-off  
function has been activated.  
Power to the iron's heating element will be  
cut and the iron will start to cool. After 30  
seconds the frequency of the beep alarm will  
decrease.

Care and Cleaning  
After each use  
Cleaning the steam holes  
1.Turn the power off and remove the plug  
from the power outlet.  
2.Allow the iron to cool before winding  
the cord around the built-in cord wrap.  
To remove build up from the steam holes  
which may affect steam performance,  
use a cotton wool tip moistened in  
methylated spirits.  
Cleaning the Resilium® soleplate  
Wipe with a soft damp cloth and wipe dry.  
Storage  
Always store the iron on its heel rest.  
Do not store the iron with the soleplate  
facing down, or in the carton.  
Caution: Do not use scouring pads, abrasives  
or harsh cleaners to clean your Resilium®,  
soleplate, as these will scratch and damage  
the surface.  
Cleaning  
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.  
Troubleshooting  
If the following conditions occur  
simultaneously, it indicates a possible fault  
within the thermistor. These conditions  
will persist until the soleplate thermistor is  
working correctly.  
To reset the iron, simply switch it off at  
the power outlet, switch it back on again  
and wait 15 seconds. The iron should now  
operate normally. If the fault occurs regularly  
return the iron, along with your purchase  
receipt, to the place of purchase for a  
replacement or refund.  
• The temperature alert light flashes red  
continuously, and  
• The LCD backlight remains lit, and  
Note: the fault conditions described above  
are different to what occurs when the safety  
auto-off feature is activated. When the iron  
is in the auto-off mode the LCD backlight  
will flash, the temperature alert light on the  
handle will flash red, and a warning beep  
will sound.  
• The temperature cannot be changed from  
the MAX setting, and the circular graphic  
flashes and counts up to the MAX segment  
continuously.

Ironing Tips and Tricks  
Tip # 27 - Iron shirts like a pro  
Tip # 13 - Ironing the seam  
Start with the collar, working from the outer  
edges into the middle. Iron the shoulder  
next, followed by the cuffs and sleeves.  
Place the collar at the narrow end of the  
board so that one front panel of the shirt  
is extended flat. Iron the front panel from  
shoulder to shirt tail. Rotate to iron the  
back of the shirt. Rotate and complete the  
remaining front panel.  
Always press seams in the same direction  
they were made. When a garment is  
produced, the fibres will naturally settle  
in the direction they were initially pressed,  
so it’s best not to iron against the grain.  
Tip # 26 - Sort types of fabric  
Sort articles to be ironed according to the  
type of fabric. This will reduce the need to  
adjust the temperature constantly. Start with  
articles requiring lower temperatures and  
work your way through to items requiring  
higher settings.  
Tip # 34 - Tips for T-shirts  
Straighten seams on t-shirts before hanging  
out to dry. To avoid damage to printed  
graphics and logos turn the t-shirt inside out  
and iron the reverse side of the print. Never  
iron areas of your t-shirt where perspiration  
marks are visible as the heat of the iron will  
permanently fix the stain.  
Tip # 2 - Summer frocks and frills  
Steam is the key when ironing delicate  
summer fabrics such as muslin, cotton and  
linen. Don’t press down with the iron, simply  
hover above the garment and steam it using  
a vertical shot of steam. Ruffling, netting,  
tulle or intricate hand detailing is also best  
ironed using this method.  
Tip # 54 - Hung out to dry  
When washing is complete, remove shirts  
from the machine immediately, shake them  
out and hang them on coat hangers to air dry  
– this will keep wrinkles to a minimum.  
Tip # 5 - Pressing your winter woollies  
Steam is crucial when pressing your winter  
woollies. Woollen garments can be hung and  
steamed using the vertical shot of steam  
feature. After steaming, brush the garment  
with your hand to plump up woollen fibres.  
If ironing the garment flat it is best to use  
a pressing cloth. Don’t be afraid to apply  
pressure – steam and hold.  
Tip # 18 - Selecting the right temperature  
If you are unsure of the correct setting for a  
particular garment, test a small area such as  
a seam or inside hem before ironing a visible  
area. Start with a low temperature and slowly  
increase the heat to find the best setting.  
Tip # 33 - Don’t be afraid to iron silk  
Tip # 42 - Table settings to impress  
To avoid unwanted creases always iron  
your table cloth after taking it out of the  
cupboard. A dinner party is a special  
occasion, so treat the table cloth as you  
would your own outfit. For best results, lay  
towels across your table and iron the table  
cloth over the towels. This will save you time  
and ensure a beautifully presented table  
setting.  
Don’t be afraid to iron silk. Although delicate  
in appearance, silk is the strongest and most  
resilient of all natural fibres. To achieve the  
best results, set to a low cotton setting and  
use regular shots of steam. Always use a  
pressing cloth to avoid shine marks.
