Steam irons become clogged from water deposits. You may clean your iron with white vinegar and water. You should use distilled water. Make a Mixture of 1/2 water and 1/2 vinegar, and pour the mixture into the iron as you would when you fill the iron with water. Turn the iron on 'steam' and let the mixture run through. You may need to do this a few times, depending on how clogged the iron is. After cleaning use distilled water to fill the iron, becuase distilled water leaves minimul deposits behind.

Sorry thats a problem steam irons always give you cant remedy that problem... buy a new iron or live with the present problem.good luck

Hi, Brown water and whitescale are often the result of the water you use in the iron... If you have scale, white vinegar will clean that... For brown water, empty the iron, rinse out the insides with bottled water, and then use the bottled water instead...

Sometimes using vinegar and water will clean out your steam iron - but smells really bad. Usually the brown gunk is a sign that there is corrosion so even if the vinergar works, you should plan on buying a new iron in the near future.

there are 2 controls to make the steam. a dial on the base which must be turned. Then the temp must be above silk and nylon and then when you press the button you will get steam. You must have bothe the dail and the button. One without the other will not make steam. Obviously you need water too

Hi,

Here is a tip that will help you with cleaning the sole plate of your iron...

Cleaning a Steam Iron Soleplate

Steam irons are built to run on tap water, there will not be any problems whatsoever unless the water is hard, which may leave sediments inside the iron after evaporation.

Turn the big yellow top, if it's air tight use a plier and gently turn it. That will the trick.
WARNING!!! Becareful not to over fill the water reservoir by doing so the water boils making it leak. It is extremely dangerously as I steam burned my hand. Other than that u won't have a problem.

This can be checked by you as there is not much of mechanics . Make sure that the steam is generated in good quantity so that the cord gets full pressure, if not clean the base perfectly so that there is good contact -- no debris .. make sure with a air pressure or water jet the connection tube is clean and not damaged at any points, if so the steam will not flow .
Once this is established you will get good steam pressure or else the connection tubing cord needs a change.Also make sure there are no issues in the iron to block off steam.
