Problem
Dirty water and
impurities come
out of the soleplate
during ironing.
The iron is plugged
in, but the soleplate
is cold.
The iron does not
produce any steam.
The iron does not
produce a steam
boost.
Water droplets drip
onto the fabric
during ironing.
The iron leaves a
shine or an imprint
on the garment.
Possible cause
Hard water with impurities
or chemicals has formed
flakes inside the soleplate.
There is a connection
problem.
There is not enough water
in the water tank.
The steam slider is set to
'no steam'.
The iron is not hot enough
yet to produce steam.
You have used the steam
boost function too often
within a very short period.

yet to produce a steam
boost.
You have not closed the
water tank lid properly.
You are ironing while the
SmartLight is blinking.
You have put a chemical
into the water tank.
The surface to be ironed
was uneven, for instance
because you ironed over
a seam or a fold in the
garment.
Solution
Use the Calc-Clean function one or
more times (see chapter 'Cleaning
and maintenance', section 'Calc-
Clean System').
Check the mains cord, the plug and
the wall socket.
Fill the water tank (see chapter
'Preparing for use', section 'Filling
the water tank'.
Set the steam slider to MAX (see
chapter 'Preparing for use', section
'Steam settings').
Wait until the SmartLight has
stopped flashing and lights up
steadily.
Continue ironing in horizontal
position and wait a while before you
use the steam boost function again.

Wait until the SmartLight lights up
steadily before ironing.
Rinse the water tank and do not put
any perfume or chemical into the
water tank.
The iron is safe to use on all
ironable garments. The shine or
imprint is not permanent and
disappears when you wash the
garment. Avoid ironing over seams
or folds. You can also place a cotton
cloth over the area to be ironed to
avoid imprints.
