out of the iron.
Iron won’t steam.
Iron leaves spots
on clothing.
Wrinkles not
removed.
Iron too hot.
Cord is twisted.
Things TO CHECK
• Is the iron plugged in and the outlet working?
Check the outlet by plugging in a lamp.
• Is Temperature Control Dial turned to a fabric setting?
• If auto shutoff model, is the Reset Light illuminated?
If not, push to reset.
• Do not overfill the water tank.
• If steam ironing, is Adjustable Steam Switch in a steam
position that matches Temperature Control Dial steam
range? Did the iron have enough time to preheat?
• If dry ironing, make sure the Adjustable Steam Switch
is in the DRY IRON position.
• Check the water level.
• Is the Adjustable Steam Switch in the STEAM position?
• Has the iron had enough time to preheat?
• ALWAYS empty the water tank of the iron after
using. Water left in the tank may discolor clothing
and soleplate.
• Check Temperature Control Dial is set to correct fabric.
• Check Temperature Control Dial and set to lower
setting. Let iron cool down 5 minutes before
continuing.
• Unplug iron and let cool. Hold iron 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.
