CAUSE
The appliance is not plugged into a
mains socket.
The "max" pressure safety system
has opened.
Water has condensed inside the
tubes because steam is being used
for the first time, or has not been
used for some time.
The temperature selector is not in the
correct position.
Chemical water softeners, distilled
water or additives have been poured
into the water tank or boiler.
Some parts have been treated with
sealer/lubricant which evaporates the
first time the iron heats up.
Water is being pumped into the boiler. This is normal and no action is needed.
The water tank is empty.
Lime scale has made the cleaning
valve difficult to open.
System error.
The cleaning valve is not tightened
correctly.
The cleaning valve gasket is
damaged.

REMEDY
Make sure the appliance is correctly connected and
press the On/Off button.
Turn the appliance off immediately and contact an
authorised Braun Customer Service.
Press the steam button several times away from the
ironing board. This will eliminate cold water from the
steam circuit.
Set the temperature between temperature level 2
(••) and "max" on the temperature selector.
Never pour products into the water tank. Clean the
sole plate with a damp cloth and rinse the boiler.
This is normal and will stop when you have used the
iron a few times. If the smoke/smell is still present
after turning off the appliance, contact an authorised
Braun Customer Service.
Refill the water tank and press the reset button.
Turn the cap forcefully. To avoid the problem, rinse
system frequently.
Unplug the system, plug in again and press the On/
Off button. If this problem is still present, turn the
appliance off immediately and contact an authorised
Braun Customer Service.
Turn off the appliance and tighten the cleaning valve
correctly, but not overtighten it.
Note: the cleaning valve might be hot.
Turn off the appliance immediately and contact an
authorised Braun Customer Service.
Refill the water tank and press the steam button
several times for 1 minute until pump loads water
inside the system.
Turn off the appliance and wait until it has cooled
down.
Make sure the reset button is pressed correctly.
