|
|
|
| Iron does not heat | • 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 |
|
|
| shake. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Thermostat ready light goes On and Off | • 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Some odor or small particles come out of | • This is normal. Follow instructions for first use and allow |
|
| steam vents of new iron | iron to steam through |
|
| button occasionally to eliminate small white particles. |
| |
|
|
|
|
| Iron does not steam | • 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. |
