Solution
Problem
• The plug may not be fully pushed into the electrical socket.
• Check the fuse in the plug. If this needs replacing, always use
a British 13amp fuse.
The iron has no power.
• There may be no water in water tank, fill the water tank.
• The temperature control dial or steam control has not been set
to the appropriate settings. Go to ‘Preparing for use’.
• The iron has a build up of limescale, Go to ‘Cleaning and maintenance –
self clean’.
Why is the iron not
producing steam?
• The steam boost button has been pressed too often within a short period.
Continue ironing in a horizontal position, after a short period of time use the
boost button again.
• The temperature control dial has not been set at a temperature the steam
boost function can be used (
to Max). Stand the iron in the upright
position, adjust the control dial and wait for the heating indicator light to go
out before using the steam boost.
Why is the steam boost
not working?
What to do if it goes wrong
Why is the spray
burst not working?
• The water tank is not full enough. Unplug the iron from the mains and add
water to the water tank.
Water is leaking
from the iron.
• The water fill cover is not correctly closed. Close the water fill cover.
• The steam boost button has been pressed with the control dial set at
the incorrect temperature. The steam boost function can be used
(
to Max).
• Excessive use of the steam burst button can reduce the temperature
of the soleplate temporarily meaning that it will need to heat up again.
If this happens the water may potentially pool in the ‘boiler’.
