Problem Cause Solution
Some smoke
comes out of the
appliance after it
has been
switched on for
the first 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.
