minerals in the steam tank.
• Chemical products or additives
have been used.
• The boiler is not switched on or
the water tank is empty.
• The water tank is not fitted onto
the housing correctly.
• The steam regulation is set to
the minimum position.
• The selected temperature is
too high and has damaged the
garment.
• This is a regular consequence of
continued use over a long period
of time.
• Water is being pumped into the
steam tank.
• The water tank is not fitted onto
the housing correctly.
• The sound will not stop.
• Steam release button has been
activated for too long a period of
time, that is, it has been pressed
too frequently.
• May be caused by steam
condensed on the ironing board.
• Water spots are caused by
steam condensation in the hose
when cooling down after use.
• This is normal. it is caused by
the steam passing through the
hose during steam ironing.
• Filter (12) located at the side of
the appliance is loose.

activated by double click.
Solution
• Use tap water mixed 50% with distilled
or demineralised water. To prolong the
optimum steam function, mix tap water
with distilled water 1:1. if the tap water in
your district is very hard, mix tap water
with distilled water 1:2.
Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
• never add products to the water.
• Set the main power button (7) to the "i"
position (illuminated in red), and/or fill the
water tank.
• Fit the water tank back onto the hou sing

intervals. This improves the ironing result
as the textiles will be steamed, dried and
ironed properly.
• Wipe the textile cover of the ironing
board, and iron any water drops to dry
them.
• Water drops stop coming out of the
soleplate after using the "pulseSteam"
function for some time.
