Possible cause
The Calc-Clean process has
not been completed.
Impurities or chemicals
present in the water have
deposited in the steam vents
and/or soleplate.
You have accidentally started
the Calc-Clean process (see
chapter 'IMPORTANT -
Cleaning and maintenance').
You have not pressed the
Calc-Clean button for
2 seconds until the appliance
started beeping.
The surface to be ironed was
uneven, for instance because
you were ironing over a seam
or a fold in the garment.
Steam has condensed on the
ironing board cover after a
long ironing session.
You may have an ironing
board that is not designed to
cope with the high steam
rate of the steam generator.
Steam is generated in the
soleplate. When you release
the steam trigger, remaining
water is transformed into
steam. This is normal.
When the iron is tilted
upwards, remaining water is
collected and converted into
strong steam. This is normal.
You do not press the steam
trigger continuously.
Solution
You have to perform the Calc-Clean
process again (see chapter 'IMPORTANT -
Cleaning and maintenance').
Perform the Calc-Clean process regularly
(see chapter 'IMPORTANT - Cleaning and
maintenance').
Switch off the appliance. Then switch it
back on again. Let the iron heat up until the
'iron ready' light lights up steadily.
See chapter 'IMPORTANT - Cleaning and
maintenance'.
Perfect Care is safe on all garments.
The shine or imprint is not permanent and
will disappear when 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.
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.
Put an extra layer of felt material under the
ironing board cover to prevent
