If your Philips Steam Generator Iron is not heating up, find possible causes and solutions in the sections below.
If your Philips Steam Generator Iron is switched on and the blue/white power light or the LED light on the handle is blinking, but the soleplate remains cold, your iron might be in auto shut-off mode.
When the iron has not been used for four to ten minutes, it enters auto shut-off mode. To reactivate it, simply press the on/off button.
Ensure you set the temperature to the appropriate level for the fabric you are ironing.
After two to three minutes, the soleplate should be hot.
Check the mains cord, plug, and wall socket to ensure everything is properly connected. Avoid using an extension cord.
