Features of your Sunbeam

Verve Iron

Powerful shot of steam

Pressing the shot of steam button instantly

produces a powerful shot of steam to remove

stubborn wrinkles.

Vertical shot of steam

Pressing the shot of steam button 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.

Easy-fill water inlet

Holds 300ml of water for continual high steam

performance without having to refill the tank

regularly.

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.

CeraFlow™ Soleplate (SRC6000 & SRC6500)

Up to 7x more scratch resistant vs. other

coatings*. Extra tough ceramic soleplate for

speed, agility and durability.

Resilium Anodised Steam Assist Soleplate

(SRA6200 & SRA6800)

Sunbeam’s premium, exclusive soleplate is

incredibly durable, and provides super low

friction to achieve 70% easier glide. With 172

steam holes to maximise steam distribution.

Safe-Store™ strip

For easier handling and storage. The heat strip

changes from red to black so you know the

iron is safe to handle and store.

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).

Power light

Illuminates to indicate that the iron is

connected to the power outlet and the power

is turned on.

Thermostat light

Illuminates to indicate that the iron is

heating and goes out when it has reached the

temperature selected on the temperature dial.

The thermostat light cycles on and off during

ironing as the iron maintains the selected

temperature.

Stable heel rest

Extra large heel rest keeps the iron stable on

the ironing board.

Cord wrap

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.

Concentric steam and temperature dials

The steam and temperature dials are

positioned together for easy adjustment.

Variable steam dial

Allows you to select the desired steam output

for each garment. Alternatively, select the DRY

setting to iron without steam.

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.

Steam Dial

Temperature Dial

Stainless Steel Soleplate (SRS6550)

Sleek and smooth stainless steel is hard wearing,

and an excellent heat conductor to get tough

wrinkles out faster.

Before first use

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.

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 special soleplate design allows you

to use tap water with your Verve 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.

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.

Using your iron

1.Insert the plug into a 230/240 volt power

outlet and turn the power on. The power

ON light (positioned on top of the handle)

will illuminate to indicate that the iron is

switched on and heating.

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 has reached the selected

temperature and is ready to use.

NOTE: When thetemperature 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.

Steam ironing

Follow steps 1 and 2 above.

NOTE: When steam ironing, ensure that the

temperature dial is set to any temperature

within the steam band, and that the tank

is at least ¼ full of water.

3.Turn the steam dial to the desired

steam setting.

For best results, select the steam setting

that corresponds to the selected temperature,

as indicated on the temperature dial.

Using your Sunbeam Verve Iron

Steam Dial

Temperature Dial

For best performance, we recommend

the use of Sunbeam Demineralised Water,

available from selected retailers. This will

produce up to 30 litres of demineralised

water.

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.

Using the shot of steam

The shot of steam can be used when dry

or steam ironing, when the temperature dial

is set to any temperature within the steam

band or above the two dot (••) setting.

1.Ensure the tank is at least ¼full of water.

2.Select the desired temperature and wait

until the thermostat light goes out.

3.Press the shot of steam button several

timeswith the iron on the soleplate to

prime the pump.

Note: If the 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 whether dry or

steam ironing to pre-dampen hard to iron

fabrics.

1.Ensure the tank is at least ¼full of water.

2.Press the spray button during ironing to

release a fine mist from the spray nozzle.

The safety auto-off mechanism automatically

turns the iron off if you forget.

The iron will automatically shut off if left

on the heel rest (vertical) for 15 minutes,

or in the ironing position (horizontal) for 30

seconds, without being moved.(S ee  gure 2) .

The thermostat and power lights on the

handle will flash and a warning beep will

sound to let you know that you have left the

iron unattended.

Power to the iron's heating element will be

cut.

Once the iron is moved the power will

reconnect. Allow the iron to heat until the

thermostat light goes out, and continue

ironing as normal.

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.

Do not store the iron with the soleplate

facing down, or in the carton.

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.

Cleaning the steam holes

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

(SRA6200 & SRA6800)

Wipe with a soft damp cloth and wipe dry.

Cleaning the Stainless Steel soleplate

(SRS6550)

Using a stainless steel or metal cleaner,

rub gently with a damp cloth and wipe dry.

Cleaning the CeraFlow™ soleplate

(SRC6000 & SRC6500)

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.

Caution: Do not use scouring pads, abrasives

or harsh cleaners to clean your Resilium®,

CeraFlow™ or Stainless steel soleplate,

as these will scratch and damage the surface.

Care and Cleaning

Tip # 27 - Iron shirts like a pro

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.

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 # 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 # 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

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.

Tip # 13 - Ironing the seam

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 # 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 # 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 # 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.
