Solution
Set an ironing temperature
that is suitable for steam
ironing ( 2 to MAX). Put the
iron on its heel and wait until
the temperature light goes out
before you start ironing.
Continue ironing in horizontal
position and wait a while
before you use the steam
boost function again.
Set an ironing temperature at
which the steam boost
function can be used ( 3
to MAX). Put the iron on its
heel and wait until the
temperature light goes out
before you use the steam
boost function.
Use the Calc-Clean function
one or more times (see
chapter 'Cleaning and
maintenance', section 'Calc-
Clean function').
Pick the iron up or move it
slightly to deactivate the
automatic shut-off function.
The automatic shut-off light
goes out.
