how do I erase content on 2017 mac

How do I erase the content on a 2017 MacOS High Sierra with Intel Core i5. I have tried getting to the disk utility using the command R function and my Mac keeps opening in regular mode. Using the disk utility in regular mode does not allow for the erase function.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.13

Hi,

Are you holding down the Command R keys long enough? From Apple: "Turn on your Mac, then immediately press and hold these two keys until you see an Apple logo or other image: Command (⌘) and R."

It did finally work after a complete shutdown. It never did work using the restart command. Thank you.
