Possible cause
You have not
closed the cap of
the filling opening
properly.
Hard water forms
flakes inside the
soleplate.
The
automatic shut-off
function has
switched off the
iron (see chapter
'Features').
You have put the
iron in horizontal
position while
there was still
water in the
water tank.
ENGLISH
Solution
Press the cap until you hear a
click.
Use the Calc-Clean function one
or more times (see chapter
'Cleaning and maintenance',
section 'Calc-Clean function').
Move the iron slightly to
deactivate the automatic shut-off
function. The red auto-off
indication of the temperature
light goes out.
Always set the steam control to
position 0 and empty the water
tank after use. Store the iron on
its heel.
