Problem Possible cause Solution

The steam generator produces a

pumping sound.

Water is pumped into the boiler

inside the steam generator. This

is normal.

If the pumping sound continues nonstop, switch

off the steam generator and remove the plug

from the wall socket. Contact an authorised

Philips service centre.

The steam generator does not

produce any steam.

There is not enough water in

the water tank (the ‘water tank

empty’ light ashes).

Fill the water tank.

The steam generator is not hot

enough to produce steam.

Wait until the ‘steam ready’ light lights up continu-

ously.

You do not press the steam

trigger.

Press the steam trigger and keep it pressed while

you iron.

The appliance is not switched on. Insert the plug in the wall socket and press the

on/off button to switch on the appliance.

The appliance is set to the ‘no

steam’ setting.

Set the appliance to the steam setting.

The steam generator has

switched off/the light in the on/

off button ashes.

The auto-off function/eco mode

is activated automatically when

the steam generator has not been

used for more than 10 minutes.

Press the power on/off button to switch on the

steam generator again.

Water droplets come out of the

soleplate.

When you start steam ironing

and when you continue steam

ironing after an interruption, the

steam that was still present in

the hose has cooled down and

condensed into water. This causes

water droplets to come out ofthe

soleplate.

This is normal. Hold the iron over an old cloth

and press the steam trigger. The cloth absorbs

the drops. After a few seconds, steam instead of

water comes out of the soleplate.

Wet spots appear on the gar-

ment during ironing.

The wet spots that appear on

your garment after you have

steam ironed for some time may

be caused by steam that has con-

densed onto the ironing board.

To prevent wet spots due to condensation,

steam iron the fabric rst and then dry iron it

for a short time to dry the fabric and the ironing

board cover underneath. Replace the ironing

board cover if its foam layer has worn out. You

can also add an extra layer of felt under the iron-

ing board cover to prevent condensation on the

ironing board. You can buy felt in a fabric shop.

Water spots appear on the

garment during use of the steam

boost function.

The water spots on your garment

are caused by condensation in

the supply hose. When the supply

hose cools down, the steam that

is still present in the hose cools

down and condenses into water.

The water droplets stop coming out of the

soleplate when you have used the steam boost

function for some time.

The iron temperature is set too low.

Set the temperature dial to 2 or higher.

Flakes and impurities come out

of the soleplate or the soleplate

is dirty.

Impurities or chemicals present in

the water have deposited in the

steam vents and/or on the soleplate.

Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.

Too much scale and minerals have

accumulated inside the steam

generator.

Descale the steam generator regularly, see CALC

CLEAN in this manual.

Water leaks from the steam

generator.

If you tilt the steam generator

during transport or place it on an

uneven surface when the water

tank is full, water may spill out of

the water tank.

Do not tilt the steam generator when the water

tank is full.

Steam escapes from under the

Calc-Clean rinsing knob

You have not tightened the Calc-

Clean rinsing knob properly after

descaling.

Switch off the appliance and tighten the Calc-

Clean rinsing knob properly.
