Problem
Possible cause
Solution
The iron is plugged
in, but the soleplate
is cold.
There is a connection problem.
Check the mains cord, the plug and the
wall socket.
The iron does not
produce any steam.
There is not enough water in the
water tank.
Fill the water tank (see chapter ‘Using
the appliance’, section ‘Filling the water
tank’).
The iron is not hot enough to
produce steam.
Wait until the Smart light has stopped
flashing and lights up continuously.
You did not move the iron.
This iron is equipped with a motion
sensor and starts producing steam as
soon as it is moved.
The iron is not plugged in.
Plug in the iron to switch it on.
The iron does not
produce any steam
when moved.
Although the Auto Steam Sensor
technology covers a large number
of ironing movements, there may
still be some movements that do
not activate the sensor.
Press the steam trigger to start
steaming.
The iron continues to
steam when it is not
moved.
Because of the Auto Steam Sensor
Technology, steam may continue
to be produced for 1-4 seconds
to ensure good wrinkle removal at
the end of the ironing stroke. This is
normal.
If you want to avoid this, place the iron
on its heel.
The iron does not
produce Steam Boost.
You have used the Steam Boost
function too often within a very
short period.
Continue ironing in horizontal position
and wait a while before you use the
Steam Boost function again.
The iron is not hot enough.
Wait until the Smart light has stopped
flashing and lights up continuously.
Water droplets drip
onto the fabric during
ironing.
You have not closed the cap of the
filling opening properly.
Press the cap until you hear a click.
You have put a chemical in the
water tank.
Rinse the water tank and do not put any
perfume or any chemical in the water
tank.
The Smart light flashes
slowly.
The Safety Auto-off mode is active.
The iron has been switched to
standby mode(see chapter ‘Safety
Auto-off’).
To reactivate the iron, press the steam
trigger. The iron starts heating up again.
