Problem Cause Solution

You have put chemicals or additives

in the water tank.

Never use chemical or additives

with the appliance. If you have

already done so, follow the

procedure in chapter 'Cleaning

and maintenance' to remove the

chemicals.

There is no or little steam. The appliance has not heated up

sufficiently.

Wait until the iron ready light stays

on continuously. This takes

approx. 2 minutes.

There is not enough water in the

water tank.

Fill the water tank up to the MAX

indication.

Scale has built up inside the

appliance because it has not been

descaled regularly.

Descale the appliance and

soleplate (see chapter 'Cleaning

and maintenance').

Water leaks from the

soleplate.

Steam condenses into water in the

hose when you use steam for the

first time or have not used it for a

long time.

This is normal. Hold the iron away

from the garment and press the

steam trigger.Wait until steam

instead of water comes out of the

soleplate.

The ironing board cover

becomes wet, or there are

water droplets on the

floor/garment.

Steam has condensed on the ironing

board cover after a long ironing

session, or your board cover is not

designed to cope with the high

steam rate.

Replace the ironing board cover if

the foam material has worn out.

We also advise you to use a layer

of felt material in the board cover

to prevent water droplets.

The surface under the

base of the appliance

becomes wet, or steam

and/or water comes out

from under the EASY DE-

CALC knob.

The EASY DE-CALC knob is not

tightened properly.

Switch off the appliance and wait

2 hours for it to cool down.

Unscrew and reattach the knob to

make sure it is tightened.

The rubber sealing ring of the EASY

DE-CALC knob is worn.

Contact an authorized Philips

service center for a new EASY DE-

CALC knob.

The iron does not heat up

and the amber DE-CALC

light flashes.

The appliance reminds you to

perform the descaling procedure.

The light flashes after approximately

one month of use.

Perform the descaling procedure,

following the instructions in

section ‘Descaling the appliance’.

The steam generator

produces a loud pumping

sound.

There is not enough water in the

water tank.

Fill the water tank up to the MAX

indication and press the steam

trigger.
