Possible causes
• The boiler is not switched on
or the water tank is empty.
• The steam regulation is set
to the minimum position.
• The selected temperature is
too high and has damaged
the garment.
• This is a regular
consequence of continued
use over a long period of
time.
• Water is being pumped into
the steam tank.
• The sound will not stop.
Steam release button has
been activated for too long a
period of time, that is, it has
been pressed too frequently.
May be caused by steam
condensed on the ironing
board.
Water spots are caused by
steam condensation in the
hose when cooling down
after use.
This is normal. It is caused
by the steam passing
through the hose during
steam ironing.
The scale collector (4)
located at the side of the
appliance is loose.
"PulseSteam" function has
been activated by double
click.
Solution
• Set the main power switch
(13) to the "I" position, and/or
ill the water tank.
• Increase the steam low (see
section 4).
• Select a suitable temperature
for the material being ironed
and clean the soleplate with
a damp cloth.
• Clean the soleplate with a
damp cloth.
• This is normal.
• If the sound will not stop, do
not use the steam generator
and contact an authorised
technical service centre.
Use the steam release button
at intervals. This improves the
ironing result as the textiles
will be steamed, dried and
ironed properly.
Wipe the textile cover of the
ironing board, and iron any
water drops to dry them.
Water drops stop coming out
of the soleplate after using
the "PulseSteam" function for
some time.
Place the hose on the
opposite side so that you
cannot touch the hose during
ironing.
Tighten up the ilter.
Just press the trigger once
again and the iron will stop
steaming at once.
