How do I turn on? re Hamilton Beach Durathon Iron

There is no reset, You will have to replace iron. Based on the price there are repair parts available.

check the thermal fuse stick on the iron plate inside the machine or clean the thermostat under the knob

If it's less than a year old take it back to be repaired under warranty.

see the diagram and see if there are any part broken, or worn and replace. Tank or ports clogged.and repair

If water is leaking out of the iron:

• Do not overfill the water tank.

• If steam ironing, is Adjustable Steam Knob in a steam position that matches Temperature Control Dial steam range? Did the iron have enough time to preheat?
• If dry ironing, make sure the Adjustable Steam Knob is in the DRY IRON position.

Here is the link to the manual, I would suggest checking that out first.

The flashing is a indication that somthing is failing.. More than likely it is a internal component..
It might be most efficent to get a new one..
Or bring it back if it is under warranty..

Good luck..
