Things TO CHECK

Is the iron plugged in and the outlet working? Check the outlet by plugging in a lamp.

Is the Temperature Selector turned to a fabric setting?

If auto shutoff model, is the indicator box around OFF in the Selected Fabric Indicator blinking? If so, press Temperature Selector/Reset Button.

The iron will shut off if the Temperature Selector is pressed for 3 seconds.

Do not overfill the water tank.

If steam ironing, is Steam ON/OFF Lever in a steam position, Fabric Setting Indicator in the steam range, and did the iron have enough time to preheat?

If dry ironing, make sure the Steam ON/OFF Lever is in the DRY IRON position.

Check the water level.

Has the iron had enough time to preheat?

Is Steam ON/OFF 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 the water tank of the iron after using. Water left in the 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 down 5 minutes before continuing.

If the iron cord should become twisted, turn iron OFF, turn Selector to OFF and unplug iron. Let cool. Empty water from iron. 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.

Rewind a small amount of cord then fully depress the Cord Release Button and pull the cord to desired length.

If each fabric setting in the display is surrounded by a rectangle and the display is blinking unplug the iron then plug it back in. This should reset the display. If not, call Customer Service.
