Problem Possible cause Solution
The ironing board cover
becomes wet or there
are water droplets on
the garment during
ironing.
Steam has condensed on the
ironing board cover after a long
ironing session.
Replace the ironing board cover if the foam material
has worn out. You can also add an extra layer of felt
material under the ironing board cover to prevent
condensation on the ironing board. You can buy felt
in a fabric shop.
You have an ironing board cover
that is not designed to cope with
the high steam rate of the
appliance.
Put an extra layer of felt material under the ironing
board cover to prevent condensation on the ironing
board. You can buy felt in a fabric shop.
Water droplets come
out of the soleplate.
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.
Steam away from the garment for a few seconds.
Steam and/or water
come out from under
the EASY DE-CALC
knob.
The EASY DE-CALC knob is not
tightened properly.
Switch o the appliance and let the appliance cool
down for 2 hours. Unscrew the EASY DE-CALC knob
and screw it back onto the appliance properly. Note:
Some water may escape when you remove the
knob.
The rubber sealing ring of the
EASY DE-CALC knob is worn.
Contact an authorised Philips service centre for a
new EASY DE-CALC knob.
Dirty water and
impurities come out of
the soleplate or the
soleplate is dirty.
Impurities or chemicals present in
the water have deposited in the
steam vents and/or on the
soleplate.
Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
Too much scale and minerals have
accumulated inside the appliance.
Descale the appliance regularly (see chapter
‘Important - DESCALING’).
The iron leaves a shine
or an imprint on the
garment.
The surface to be ironed was
uneven, for instance because you
were ironing over a seam or a fold
in the garment.
PerfectCare is safe on all garments. The shine or
imprint is not permanent and will come o if you
wash the garment. Avoid ironing over seams or folds
or you can place a cotton cloth over the area to be
ironed to avoid imprints at seams and folds.
