840202100 ENv02.qxd:Layout 1 5/6/11 3:31 PM Page 13 Troubleshooting PROBLEM Iron won't heat. Water is leaking. Iron won't steam. Iron leaves spots on clothing. Twisted cord. PROBABLE CAUSE • Is iron plugged in and the outlet working? Check outlet by plugging in a lamp. • Has a temperature been selected? • Is the Auto Off light illuminated? Move the iron to reset. • Do not overfill the water tank. • Adjust steam to a lower setting. • If steam ironing, is the Adjustable Steam Switch in a steam position? Has a temperature been selected? Did the iron have enough time to preheat? • If dry ironing, make sure the Adjustable Steam Switch is in the (Dry Iron) position. • Check water level. • Is the Adjustable Steam Switch in the (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 water tank after using. Water left in 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 the iron cord. Wrinkles not removed. • Choose correct temperature setting for your fabric. Iron too hot/not hot enough. • Adjust temperature to desired setting. Let iron cool down 5 minutes before continuing. 13
