POSSIBLE CAUSE
When starting your ironing session the
steam button has not been pressed
long enough
There is not enough water in the water
tank
If the «clean» system LED turns on,
the steam function has been disabled
until you have performed the cleaning
process
The iron is heating up
The auto-off mode is activated
automatically when there has been no
steam emission for more than
20 minutes
The temperature selected is too high
If the water tank is full - this is a normal
working condition
The water tank is empty
Steam condenses into water in the
hose when you use steam for the fi rst
time or have not used it for a long time
Your tap water is very hard
Impurities of chemicals present in the
water have deposited in the steam
vents and/or soleplate
The temperature selector has not
been turned to «clean» and the «clean»
button has not been pressed until you
hear an acoustic signal.
The cleaning process has been
activated accidentally.
SOLUTION
Press and hold the steam button until
steam comes out. It may take up to
30 seconds until steam comes out
Fill the water tank
Perform the cleaning process
(see dedicated chapter)
When the temperature control LED
is fl ashing, the iron is heating up;
during this phase the steam function
is disabled. Wait until the temperature
control LED turns permanently on.
To switch the iron on again, select a
temperature level. The appliance starts
to heat up again.
Place temperature selector to level
1 (•) or level 2 (••) or place an
additional layer on the garment
No action required
Switch off the system, unplug and fi ll
the water tank. Press the steam button
untill the steam comes out.
This is normal. Hold the iron away
from the garment and press the steam
button. Wait until steam instead of
water comes out of the soleplate
If your tap water is hard we recommend
you use either distilled water or
demineralized water
Perform the cleaning process regularly
even if not required by the system
Follow the steps shown in dedicated
chapter
Switch off the appliance and unplug.
Put the iron on the cleaning vessel,
switch on and perform the cleaning
process completely ( see dedicated
chapter)
