Solution:

Steam

The steam  

generator does  

not produce any 

steam / steam 

output is weak

1.  There is not enough water in the water tank. Remove the detachable water tank from the steam  

 generator and fill the water tank with tap water.

2.  The steam generator is not hot enough to produce steam.  

Wait until the ‘iron ready’ light on the iron lights up continuously.

3.  Steam trigger is not being held. Press and hold the steam trigger located under the handle while ironing.  

Steam output can slightly fluctuate during ironing, which is normal behaviour for steam generators. 

4.  The water tank is not placed properly in the steam generator.  

Slide the water tank firmly back into the steam generator (‘click’)

Leaking

Leaking from  

soleplate / brown, 

dirty water comes 

out / ironing board 

and cloths are 

damp

1.  Your iron produces a lot of steam which may cause condensation on the board cover and water dropping 

to the floor. Replace the ironing board cover if the foam material has worn out. You can also add an extra 

layer of material under the ironing board cover to prevent condensation on the ironing board. 

2.  Your appliance needs descaling. Every electrical appliance which uses water is prone to a lime scale build 

up – this is especially common when using hard water. With time, if lime scale is prone to scale build-up, 

especially if you use hard water. If scale is not removed, it will eventually block the soleplate vents and 

cause leakage. Descale your appliance regularly - see instructions above.

Power

No power /  

doesn’t turn on

1.  Check if the appliance is switched on. The power on/off light should light up.  
2.  Check the fuse and the power socket. Try to plug in your appliance in a different socket.

Noise

Loud noise  

during ironing

1.  Noise from the base- a vibrating sound during ironing is normal as it is related to the water heating up 

and steam moving through the hose. 

2.  Noise from the iron- whooshing sound that can be heard when steam comes out of the soleplate.  

This is normal for a steam generator with high pressure steam. You can reduce steam by selecting a low 

steam or ECO mode.

 

Remove the plug from 

the wall socket.

Hold a container  

(with a capacity of at 

least 250ml) under the 

EASY DE-CALC knob 

and turn the knob  

anticlockwise.

Remove the EASY 

DE-CALC knob and let 

the water with scale 

particles flow into the 

container. When empty, 

fasten the knob turning 

it clockwise.

Troubleshooting

Extra Features

Very important: perform the descaling  

procedure as soon as the EASY DE-CALC light 

starts to flash and the appliance beeps continuously.

If the appliance was in

use and is hot, let it  

cool down completely 

(at least 2hrs) before 

proceeding.

 TURBO steam mode has a higher amount of steam. You can use it on thick 

garments for better steam penetration.

1. Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds until the light turns white.

2.  To switch back to the normal steam mode, press and hold the on/off button  

for 2 seconds until the light turns blue again.

 During ironing, you can use the ECO mode to save energy and still have sufficient steam to iron  

all your garments.

Note:

 For the best results, we advise you to use the normal steam mode.

1. Press the ECO button (it will turn green).

2. To switch back to the normal steam mode, press the ECO button again.

 

To save energy, the appliance switches off automatically when it has not been  

used for 10 minutes.  

The blue auto-off light in the on/off button starts to flash.  

To activate the appliance again, press the on/off button. The appliance then starts to heat up again.

Note:

 The appliance is not switched off completely when it is in auto-off mode.  

To switch off the appliance, press the on/off button.

Keep me!
