Problem: The iron is not heating up or the Power Switch light is not
turning on.
(Solution 1) Verify the iron is plugged in.
(Solution 2) Verify the electrical outlet has power.
(Solution 3) Verify the iron Power Switch is ON.
(Solution 4) Set the iron Temperature Dial Knob to 1 or higher.

Problem: The iron base is releasing water
(Solution 1) When you stop ironing momentarily during operation, the
remaining steam inside the hose begins to condensate.
Make sure to face the iron away from any person and fabrics
and press on the Push Lever a couple of times. You will
experience a mix of water and steam when bleeding off the
system.
(Solution 2) Verify the steam supply for possible condensation in the
line.
Problem: The iron keeps releasing steam while not pressing on the
Push Lever
(Solution 1) Remove the Push Lever (Part#13) and then the Steam
Valve Assembly (Part#12) from the iron. Inside the Steam
Valve, remove any debris found in the PTFE packing of the
spindle.
(Solution 2) Verify condition of the spindle PTFE packing. If worn out or
damaged by debris, the Steam Valve Assembly (Part#12)
needs to be replaced.
