• Do not overfill the water tank.
• If steam ironing, is
Adjustable Steam Control in
a steam position, the Temperature Control Dial
in the steam range, and did the iron have
enough time to preheat?
• If dry ironing, make sure the
Adjustable Steam
Control is in the
0
(Dry Iron) position.
• If using the Blast of Steam Button, push button
less frequently.
• Follow the self-cleaning instructions one or
two times with tap water (not distilled) to
“condition” the iron.
• Check the water level.
• Is
Adjustable Steam Control in Steam position?
• Has the iron had enough time to preheat?
• Anti-drip feature will not allow steam when
temperature setting is in the dry range.
• ALWAYS empty the water tank of the iron
after using. Water left in the tank may discolor
clothing and soleplate.
• If the iron cord should become twisted, 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.
• Check Temperature Control Dial is set to
correct fabric.
