PROBLEM POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Iron does not heat
Thermostat ready light
goes On and Off
Some odor or small
particles come out of
steam vents of new
iron
Iron does not steam
Water droplets coming
from steam vents
• Iron should be plugged into a 120V AC electrical
outlet only.
Make sure that the plug is securely in the socket.
• Temperature setting too low.
Turn to higher setting.
• Iron not properly placed in stand.
• This is normal.
The light goes On and Off as the thermostat is
switching the heating element On and Off to
maintain the selected temperature.
• This is normal.
Follow instructions for first use and allow iron to steam
through 2-3 fillings & press the steam burst button
occasionally to eliminate small white particles.
• Water tank may be empty or water level is very low.
Add water.
• Make sure that the temperature control dial is correctly
set. For maximum steam, temperature control dial
should be set on ‘•••’.
• Make sure the temperature control dial is set in
the correct steam area, e.g. ‘•’, for more steam, turn
temperature dial to higher setting, e.g. ‘•••’.
• If temperature setting is correct and there is no steam,
gently tap the soleplate on the ironing board a few
times.
• Iron may not be hot enough. Set temperature control
dial to the ‘Max’ position. Always allow iron sufficient
time to heat up (thermostat light goes off) before
pressing the steam button.
• Overuse of steam burst. Allow more time between
each burst.
• Iron may have been overfilled. Turn iron off,empty
water and follow instructions for filling.
• Steam performance may be low if iron requires
seasoning. To season, use regular tap water for 1or 2
tanks until steam performance improves.
11. Always store your iron on the iron
rest provided with your iron, not on
the soleplate. If stored face down,
even the smallest amount of
moisture will cause the soleplate to
corrode and stain.
12. DANGER! Never use the iron if it
is damaged or dropped. Using the
iron when it is damaged could
create the risks of fire, electric
shock, injury or death.
1. Your Steam Station iron is designed
to rest only on the iron rest provided
with the iron. Do not rest iron on
soleplate.
2. Never use or rest iron on an
unstable surface.
3. While the iron is hot, never set iron
on an unprotected surface - even if it
is on its heel rest.
4. WARNING! TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK OR OTHER
INJURY, before filling the iron
with water, make sure that the
plug is removed from the outlet.
5. CAUTION: Never fill the iron with
fabric conditioner, starches or any
other solution, as these will
damage the steam mechanism. Do
not use contaminated water.
6. WARNING! TO AVOID FIRE, never
leave iron unattended while it is
plugged in.
7. WARNING! TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK, never
immerse the iron in water or other
liquid.
8. WARNING! TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK, never use the
iron in a location where it can fall
or be pulled into water or any
other liquid. If the iron falls into
water or any other liquid, unplug it
immediately. DO NOT reach into
the water or liquid.
9. CAUTION: Never use scouring
pads, abrasive or chemical
cleaners, or solvents to clean the
exterior or soleplate of your iron.
Doing so will scratch and/or
damage the surface.
10. WARNING! DO NOT aim iron at
face, towards yourself, or anyone
else while using or adjusting
steam. Burns or serious injury
may occur.
