Possible Cause / Solution
•
Is the mains plug correctly inserted into the socket?
•
Is the plug socket defective? Try a different socket and
check the fuse of your mains connection.
•
Is the water reservoir empty? Refi ll it (see the "Use"
chapter, "Filling the Water Reservoir" section).
•
The device has not yet reached operating temperature.
Wait until the temperature control lamp lights up
constantly.
•
Is the temperature control on a low temperature setting?
Select a higher temperature setting.
•
Is the device upright? Press the
check whether any steam emerges.
•
If you have set a high temperature, the steam which is
generated is dry and almost invisible. This is exacerbated
by a high ambient temperature. Switch the temperature
control to a lower temperature to check whether the device
is producing steam.
•
Have you not moved the device for some time? The
automatic safety switch-off function was activated. Take
hold of the handle so that the device switches back on and
heats up again.
•
Is the water reservoir overfi lled? Pour away some water
(see the "Use" chapter, "After Use" section).
•
Is the temperature control on a low temperature setting?
Select a higher temperature setting so that steam can be
generated.
•
You might notice a small amount of smoke the fi rst time
you use the device. However, this is harmless and will
cease as you use the device.
•
Is the water reservoir empty? Refi ll it (see the "Use" chap-
ter, "Filling the Water Reservoir" section).
