What to do, if ...
• no "steam" appears when using on a
steam setting?
– In warm, dry air (during the winter),
reduced amounts of vapour are nor-
mal because it is absorbed by the dry
air before condensing.
– Emptying the filled water reservoir
can wash out fluff. Remove the
mains cord and tip the filled appli-
ance forwards at an angle (Figure 7)
so that the water can run out of the
filling aperture.
• drops of water are coming out of the
steam exit holes?
– Do not set the steam selector to
another position than

the inside of the water reservoir. Fill
it with water and gently shake the
steam iron. Then pour the water out.
• the soleplate is rough or furred?
– The iron temperature was set too
high.
– Select the correct ironing tempera-
ture for the fabric (see ironing
table).
