Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
Iron won’t heat.
Water is leaking
out of the iron.
Iron won’t steam.
Iron leaves spots
on clothing.
Wrinkles not removed.
Fabric/clothing scorched.
Twisted cord.
PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
• Is the iron plugged in and the outlet working? Check the outlet by plugging in a lamp.
• Is the Temperature Selector set to a fabric setting?
• If auto shutoff model, are there two blinking lines in display? If so, move iron to turn back on.
• The iron will shut off if ON/OFF is pressed for 3 seconds.
• Do not overfill the water tank.
• If steam ironing, is Steam Lever in a steam position, Temperature Selector setting in the steam
range, and did the iron have enough time to preheat?
• If dry ironing, make sure the Steam Lever is in the DRY IRON
position.
• Check the water level.
• Has the iron had enough time to preheat?
• Is Steam Lever in the STEAM position?
NOTE:
Anti-drip feature will not allow steam when
iron is at a temperature that would result in water leaking from the soleplate.
• ALWAYS empty water tank after using. Water left in tank may discolor clothing and soleplate.
• Check Temperature Selector is set to correct fabric.
• Check Temperature Selector and set to lower setting. Allow iron to cool for 5 minutes before continuing.
• If cord becomes twisted, turn iron
OFF
, turn Selector to
OFF
and unplug iron. Let cool. Empty
water from iron. Hold cord in the middle of entire length. Let plug and iron dangle freely until cord
uncoils. This will extend the life of your iron cord.
