Problem
Dirty water and
impurities come out of
the soleplate.
Water flushes out of the
soleplate.
The Calc-Clean process
does not start.
The ironing board cover
becomes wet, or there
are water droplets on
the floor/garment.
Possible cause

not been completed.
Steam condenses into water
in the hose when you use
steam for the first time or
have not used it for a long
time.
Impurities or chemicals
present in the water have
deposited in the steam vents
and/or soleplate.
