Problem

Possible cause

Solution

No steam comes out of the 
soleplate, the light of the 
CALC-CLEAN button flashes 
and the appliance beeps.

You have not done or have 
not completed the Calc-Clean 
process.

Perform the Calc-Clean process to enable the 
steam function again (see chapter 'Cleaning and 
maintenance').

The appliance has switched 
off.

The safety auto-off function is 
activated automatically when the 
appliance has not been used for 
more than 5 minutes.

To activate the appliance again, press the on/off 
button. The appliance then starts to heat up again.

The appliance produces a 
loud pumping sound.

The water tank is empty. 

Fill the water tank with water and press the steam 
trigger until the pumping sound becomes softer 
and steam comes out of the soleplate.

Water droplets come out of 
the soleplate.

After the Calc-Clean process 
remaining water may drip out of 
the soleplate.

Wipe the soleplate dry with a piece of cloth. If the 
Calc-Clean light still flashes and the appliance still 
beeps, perform the Calc-Clean process (see chapter 
'Cleaning and maintenance').

The Calc-Clean process has not 
been completed.

You have to perform the Calc-Clean process again 
(see chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance').

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.

Dirty water and impurities 
come out of the soleplate.

Impurities or chemicals present in 
the water have deposited in the 
steam vents and/or soleplate.

Perform the Calc-Clean process regularly (see 
chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance').

Water flushes out of the 
soleplate.

You have accidentally started the 
Calc-Clean process (see chapter 
'Cleaning and maintenance').

Switch off the appliance. Then switch it back on 
again. Let the iron heat up until the 'iron ready' light 
lights up steadily.

The Calc-Clean process does 
not start.

You have not pressed the CALC-
CLEAN button for 2 seconds until 
the appliance started beeping.

See chapter 'Cleaning and maintenance'.

The iron leaves a shine or an 
imprint on the garment.

The surface to be ironed was 
uneven, for instance because you 
were ironing over a seam or a fold 
in the garment.

PerfectCare is safe on all garments. The shine or 
imprint is not permanent and will come off if you 
wash the garment.Avoid ironing over seams or folds 
or you can place a cotton cloth over the area to be 
ironed to avoid imprints.

There was not enough felt in the 
ironing board cover.

Put an extra layer of felt material under the ironing 
board cover.

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.

Replace the ironing board cover if the foam or felt 
material has worn out. You can also add an extra 
layer of felt material under the ironing board cover 
to prevent condensation on the ironing board.

You have an ironing board that 
is not designed to cope with the 
high steam rate of the appliance.

Put an extra layer of felt material under the ironing 
board cover to prevent condensation on the ironing 
board.
