What to do if the anti calc indicator is flashing on my TEFAL SV6110?

  If the anti calc indicator is flashing on your TEFAL Iron, it means that the anti calc cartridge is no longer efficient. Replace the anti scale cartridge with a new one, then press the reset button for a minimum of 3 seconds. Also, the descaling procedure might need to be performed; see section "Descaling your generator" in this manual to perform the descaling procedure.

Why does my TEFAL SV6110 Iron leave water streaks on linen?

  If water streaks appear on the linen when using your TEFAL Iron, it's likely because your ironing board is saturated with water because it is not suitable for use with an appliance. Check that your ironing board is suitable. We recommend that you use a vented/mesh type ironing board.

  If brown streaks come through the holes in the soleplate of your TEFAL Iron and stain the linen, it is because you are using chemical descaling agents or additives in the water ironing. Never add this type of product in the water tank (see “for what water may be used”). Contact an Approved Service Centre.

Why is my TEFAL Iron producing little or no steam?

  Cynthia BarberNov 9, 2025
  There are several reasons why your TEFAL Iron might not be producing steam: * The water tank may be empty - fill the tank. * You may be using steam for the first time, or you have not used it for some time - press the steam control button away from your ironing board until the iron produces steam. * The setting is not correct (1 dot / 2 dots) and the soleplate is not hot enough to produce steam - set the iron at 3 dots (••• or MAX) and wait for the iron thermostat light to go out before activating the steam button again. * Steam cannot be produced at the temperature you have selected - set the thermostat control in the coloured zone (••• or MAX). * There is no anti calc cartridge in the appliance or it is not properly installed - make sure the anticalc cartridge is installed and...
