Why is my Bosch Sensixx DS38 not producing steam?
Your Bosch Iron may not be producing steam because the boiler is not switched on, or the water tank is empty. Set the power button to the “I” position and/or fill the water tank. Another possible reason is that the water tank is not fitted onto the housing correctly. To fix this, fit the water tank back onto the housing correctly.
What to do if my Bosch Iron is not heating up?
If your Bosch Iron isn't heating up, first ensure that the power button is set to the “I” position. Also, check the temperature setting; if it's too low, set the temperature to the desired position.
What to do if dirt comes out through the soleplate of my Bosch Iron?
If dirt is coming out through the soleplate of your Bosch Iron, it could be due to a build-up of scale or minerals in the boiler and iron. Perform a cleaning cycle. It may also be because chemical products or additives have been used. Never add products to the water. Use tap water mixed 50% with distilled or demineralised water. To prolong the optimum steam function, mix tap water with distilled water 1:1. If the tap water in your area is very hard, mix tap water with distilled water 1:2. Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
