Problem Cause Solution

Some smoke

comes out of the

appliance after it

has been

switched on for

the rst time.

This is normal. Some parts of the

appliance have been greased lightly in

the factory.

This phenomenon ceases after a

short while.

Dirt particles

come out of the

soleplate of the

new iron.

This is normal with a new iron. These particles are harmless

and stop coming out of the

soleplate after you have used the

iron a few times.

Droplets of

water escape

from the

soleplate.

The temperature dial has been set to

a temperature that is too low for

steam ironing.

Set an ironing temperature that is

suitable for steam ironing

(temperature settings 2 to MAX).

The appliance is not switched on. Set the on/off switch to ‘I’.

The steam tank has been placed on an

unstable and/or uneven surface.

Put the steam tank on a stable and

even surface.
