with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the
information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently
asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Centre in your country.
Problem Possible cause Solution
The ironing board
cover becomes wet
or there are water
droplets on the
garment during
ironing.
Steam has condensed on the
ironing board cover after a long
ironing session.
Replace the ironing board cover if the foam
material has worn out. You can also add an
extra layer of felt material under the ironing
board cover to prevent condensation on the
ironing board. You can buy felt in a fabric
shop.
You have an ironing board cover
that is not designed to cope
with the high steam rate of the
appliance.
Put an extra layer of felt material under
the ironing board cover to prevent
condensation on the ironing board. You can
buy felt in a fabric shop.
Water droplets come
out of the soleplate.
The steam that was still present
in the hose has cooled down
and condensed into water. This
causes water droplets to come
out of the soleplate.
Steam away from the garment for a few
seconds.
Steam and/or water
come out from
under the EASY DE-
CALC knob.
The EASY DE-CALC knob is not
tightened properly.
Switch off the appliance and let the
appliance cool down for 2 hours. Unscrew
the EASY DE-CALC knob and screw it back
onto the appliance properly. Note: Some
water may escape when you remove the
knob.
The rubber sealing ring of the
EASY DE-CALC knob is worn.
Contact an authorised Philips service centre
for a new EASY DE-CALC knob.
Dirty water and
impurities come out
of the soleplate or
the soleplate is dirty.
Impurities or chemicals present
in the water have deposited in
the steam vents and/or on the
soleplate.
Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
Too much scale and minerals
have accumulated inside the
appliance.
Descale the appliance regularly (see chapter
‘Important - DESCALING’).
The iron leaves a
shine or an imprint
on the garment.
The surface to be ironed was
uneven, for instance because you
were ironing over a seam or a
fold in the garment.
PerfectCare is safe on all garments. The
shine or imprint is not permanent and will
come off if you wash the garment. Avoid
ironing over seams or folds or you can place
a cotton cloth over the area to be ironed to
avoid imprints at seams and folds.
The appliance does
not produce any
steam.
There is not enough water in
the water tank (the ‘water tank
empty’ light flashes).
Fill the water tank (see chapter ‘Using your
appliance’, section ‘Filling the water tank’).
The appliance is not hot enough
to produce steam.
Wait until the ‘iron ready’ light on the iron
lights up continuously.
