GETTING TO KNOW YOUR ELECTRONIC IRON
PROBLEM | POSSIBLE REASONS & SOLUTIONS | |
| • Iron should be plugged into a 120V AC electrical | |

| Make sure that the plug is securely in the socket. | |
| • Fabric/temperature setting too low. | |
| Select a higher fabric/temperature setting. | |

steam vents of new | through | |

Iron does not steam | • 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), fabric setting | |
| should be set on ‘•••’. | |
| • Variable steam control is set on “0”. Always allow the | |
| iron to reach the selected temperature with the variable | |
| steam control setting at ‘0’. Make sure the | |
| fabric/temperature setting is set in the correct steam | |
| area, e.g. ‘•’, and the steam control is not on ‘0’. For | |
| more steam, set the fabric/temperature setting to a | |
| higher setting, e.g. ‘•••’, and the steam control to ‘Max’. | |
| • If fabric/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. |
Before using your Retractor ™ Retractable Cord Iron, remove any labels, stickers or tags that may be attached to the body or soleplate of the iron.
When turned on for the first time, your new iron may emit an odor for up to 10 minutes. This is due to the initial heating of the materials used in making the iron.
The odor is safe and should not reoccur after initial heating.
Also, before ironing with steam for the first time, allow iron to heat, hold in a horizontal position and hit the burst of steam button several times. The iron may emit some small particles from the steam holes. This is normal and will clear after pressing the burst of steam button several times.

to the ‘Max’ position. Always allow iron sufficient time | ||
from steam vents | ||
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. |
