Problem
Possible cause
Solution
The appliance
does not become
hot.
There is a connection problem.
Check the mains cord, the plug
and the wall socket.
The appliance is not switched on.
Set the power knob with steam
control to a steam setting.
The set ironing temperature is too
low.
Set a higher ironing temperature.
Some smoke
comes out of the
appliance after I
have switched it
on for the irst
time.
This is normal. Some parts of the
appliance have been greased lightly in
the factory.
This phenomenon ceases after a
short while.
The appliance
produces a
pumping sound.
Water is pumped into the boiler
inside the steam generator.This is
normal
If the pumping sound continues
non-stop, switch off the appliance
immediately and unplug it. Contact
an authorised Philips service centre.
The appliance
does not produce
any steam.
There is not enough water in the
water tank.
Fill the water tank.
The steam generator is not hot
enough to produce steam.
Wait until the steam setting light
stays on.
You are not pressing the steam trigger. Press the steam trigger and keep it
pressed while you steam iron.
The water tank is not placed properly
in the appliance.
Slide the water tank irmly back into
the steam generator (‘click’).
Superheated (i.e. high-quality) steam is
hardly visible, especially when the
temperature dial is set to maximum
position and even less so when the
ambient temperature is relatively high.
To check if the iron really produces
steam, set the iron to a lower
temperature setting between
2
and
3
for more visible
steam.
The appliance is not switched on.
Set the power knob with steam
control to a steam setting.
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 of the 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.
The temperature dial is 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).
