PROBLEM POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS
Iron does not heat
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.
• 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 fabric/temperature setting and
the variable steam control are correctly set. For
maximum steam, (setting ‘Max’ on steam control),
temperature setting should be set on ‘•••’.
• Variable steam control lever is set on “0”.
Always allow the iron to reach the selected
temperature with the variable steam control setting
at ‘0’. Make sure the temperature setting is set in
the correct steam area, e.g. ‘•’, 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 maximum steam
position a few times.
• Iron may not be hot enough. Set temperature to the
‘Max’ position. Always allow iron sufficient time to
heat up before activating the variable steam control.
• 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.
