PROBLEM
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Steam does not come out
from the Iron soleplate
No power ON/OFF (
) switch
is off.
Check that the power is on and that the
ON/OFF (
) switch is pressed.
Water tank is empty.
Fill the water tank.
Little steam comes from
the Iron soleplate.
The steam is dry, so is barely
visible, but is present and ef-
fective.
This is normal especially in particular
environmental conditions.
You have not kept the button
continuously pressed.
Keep the iron button pressed while
ironing.
You are ironing in Eco mode.
For a more powerful jet of steam,
deactivate Eco mode and iron using the
Max function.
Water comes out from the
Iron soleplate instead of
steam.
The temperature dial is not
turned to maximum value.
Rotate the temperature dial to maximum.
First steam release.
Release onto a cloth until steam comes
out from the holes on the solepate.
The Calc Cleaning system just
finished
and
any
remaining
water might leak from the
plate.
Dry the iron with a cloth and resume
normal ironing.
The Steam Boost function was
activated several times
Always
wait
for
the
iron
to
reach
maximum
temperature
between
one
activation and the next.
Calc
Cleaning
function
activated.
End the cleaning cycle.
Traces of water remain on
the garments.
The
ironing-board
lining
is
impregnated with water.
Check that the ironing board is suitable (a
board
with
a
grill
that
prevents
condensation).
The
steam
does
not
discharge
immediately
after the steam button has
been pressed.
The water in the tank turns into
steam in the iron plate. When
you press the steam button, it
takes 1-2 seconds to generate
steam and discharge it.
This is normal, press and hold down the
iron button while ironing.
The steam will continue to
discharge after the steam
button has been released.
The water in the tank turns into
steam in the iron plate. When
the button is released, the
remaining water is turned into
steam.
Release the steam button for 2-3 seconds
before placing the iron onto the mat or in
a vertical position.
When the iron is placed on
the mat or in a vertical
position, a strong jet of
steam
discharges,
even
after the button on the
iron has been released.
When the iron is in the vertical
position, the remaining water is
collected and converted into
steam with an intense delivery.
This is normal. Release the steam button
for 2-3 seconds before placing the iron
onto the mat or in a vertical position.
