When I turn on the iron no matter what setting I use it has a sticky surface and doesn't glide smoothly on fabric.
Self-Cleaning and Maintaining Sole
Plate Use the self-cleaning feature once a month by
moving the steam lever back and forth from the "dry" setting several
times. This will remove any residue from the steam valve and ensure that the
steam system works properly. Wipe the sole plate with
a soft, damp cloth while the iron is cool and unplugged. Run the iron over a
cotton cloth several times to remove any residue from the sole plate. Cleaning Anti-Calcium Feature Fill the water cup that
came with your iron. Use enough water to reach the Sunbeam logo in the top
corner of the cup. Add a teaspoon of salt
to the cup and stir. Empty the salt solution
into the water reservoir in your iron. Allow the iron to stand
for 15 minutes, then empty out the water reservoir.Repeat this cycle with a
second cupful of salt water. Rinse out the reservoir
with clean water. You should perform this cleaning once a month.
