Iron Troubleshooting
• Water tank may be empty or water level is very low.
Add water.
• Make sure that the temperature control dial and the
variable steam control are correctly set. For maximum
steam (setting ‘Max’ on steam control), temperature
control dial should be set on ‘•••’.
• Always allow the iron to reach the selected temperature
with the steam setting at ‘0’. Make sure the temperature
control dial is set in the correct steam area and the steam
control is not on ‘0’. For more steam, turn temperature
dial to higher setting (e.g. ‘•••’ and the steam control to
‘Max’).
• If temperature setting and steam control setting are
correct and there is no steam, gently tap the soleplate on
the ironing board a few times. Move the variable steam
control from ‘0’ to ‘Max’ a few times.
Iron does not steam
• 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.
Some odor or small particles come out of
steam vents of new iron
• 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.
Thermostat ready light goes On and Off
• Iron should be plugged into a 120V AC electrical outlet
only. Make sure that the plug is securely in the socket.
• Thermostat set too low. Turn to higher setting.
• Auto shut-off may be activated. Move iron gently or
shake.
