It's important to know what sort of problem exists and what is required to
repair it before starting. Read the manual provided with your iron first to be sure
there is nothing wrong with your settings. Next, check the thermostat and electric
cord if the iron does not heat or heats up exceedingly high when the power is
switched on. If steam is not coming out properly or the water is being spat out when
the iron is on, check the bottom of the iron (sole plate) and holes from where steam
is released for debris or obstructions. Last but not least, check the sole plate surface
if the clothes are clinging to it to see if there is any residue or debris burned onto it.
Switch off or disconnect the iron and leave it to cool off completely. If you start
repairing the iron while it is still plugged to the circuit, you might get an electric
shock.
