Frequently Asked Questions - ST714LG AEG

How to use the vertical steam function?

Press and hold the Steam Plus button for 3 to 5 seconds to activate vertical steam. Use it to dewrinkle hanging clothes.

What to do if the soleplate does not heat?

Check the power cord and the socket. Ensure the temperature setting is not below "OUTDOOR". Select the appropriate temperature.

Why is water escaping from the soleplate?

This may be due to insufficient temperature or excess limescale. Increase the temperature and wait for the indicator to turn off. If the problem persists, perform a descaling with AEG ECF5 product.

How to descale the steam generator?

Use the AEG ECF5 descaler. Drain the boiler, fill it with descaling solution, let it act according to instructions, empty and rinse several times with clean water. Always leave some water in the boiler after cleaning.

What type of water to use?

It is recommended to use distilled water or a mixture of 50% distilled water and 50% tap water. Avoid very hard water.

How to clean the soleplate?

Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive detergent in small amounts.

What to do if the iron does not produce steam?

Check the water level in the tank. If empty, fill it. Ensure the set temperature is sufficient (at least ●●●).

How to store the appliance after use?

Turn off and unplug the appliance. Empty the water tank. Place the iron on its base and lock it. Store the power cord in the designated space (R) and the steam hose in the space (L).

How to replace the anti-scale cartridge?

Remove the water tank, disassemble the cartridge (if present), immerse it in water for 60 seconds, then reinsert it. It is recommended to replace the cartridge every 3 months.

What to do if brown marks appear on the laundry?

Use the recommended descaling product AEG ECF5. Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth. Ensure textiles are properly rinsed before ironing.

Thank you for choosing an AEG product. In order to ensure the best results, always use original AEG accessories and spare parts. They have been designed especially for your product. This product is designed with the environment in mind. All plastic parts are marked for recycling purposes.

It may be possible that your steam station does not produce steam immediately after filling it with water. The reason for this is that air trapped in the inner system can delay this function a few seconds. Please be patient and try it again by pressing the steam button. For your convenience the steam will be produced after you release the steam button for a few seconds and it is not necessary to press the button all the time. Find out your rhythm for the best steaming result.

GETTING STARTED

Before first use. Remove all adhesive remains and gently rub with a dampened cloth. Position the steam station iron horizontally on the ironing-board or on a heat resistant, secure surface at the same height as an ironing-board. Unwind and straighten the power cord and the steam hose.
2 Remove the water tank (F) by gripping the slot on the underside and pulling it gently away from the boiler unit. Detach the anti-calc cartridge* (T) and then immerse it in water for more than 60 sec. Insert the anti-calc cartridge* back. Fill the water tank using cold water. It is recommended to use distilled water or a mix of 50% distilled, 50% tap water. Empty the water tank to rinse out any foreign particles which may have remained from the manufacturing process. We recommend to replace the anti-calc cartridge* after 3 months. (*Certain models only).
3 Always refill the water tank to MAX level using cold water (F). Caution! Never operate the appliance without any water in the tank.
4 Connect the steam station to the mains supply. Press the ON/OFF button. Select the programme from the selector wheel on the iron and turn accordingly.
5 Heating indicator light (A) and headlight (B) are on as soon as the ON/OFF button is pressed.
6 When the heating indicator light (A) is ON the steam station is preheating. When the steam-ready indicator (N) is ON the steam station is ready to be used.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

7 Unlock the iron by switching the locking mechanism to 6 and lift it from the iron rest area. Before starting ironing, please test your iron on an old towel to ensure that no residues inside the iron are transferred to your garments. If necessary, wipe the soleplate with a slightly damp cloth.
8 To activate the steam function, press and hold the steam boost button for 3-5 seconds. Hold the steam boost button to eject a concentrated jet of steam. When releasing the button, use up the steam before putting it back on the iron rest of the steam station. It is recommended that the steam button is used for short periods. Caution! Never release steam while the iron is standing on its rest.
9 Turn off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button (lighting will go off).
10 Always cool the iron fully on the iron rest before storing away. Once the iron is cool, empty the water tank. Store the steam station iron on the iron rest.
11 When finished using the appliance, switch off by pressing the ON/OFF button. Put the iron on the iron rest area and switch the locking mechanism to in order to secure the iron.

12 Always store the power cord in the power cord storage (R) and the steam hose in the steam hose storage (L) on the steam station base. Warning! NEVER wind the power cord around the iron.

CLEANING

13 Turn the station base to the side so that the boiler cap is uppermost. Unscrew the boiler cap. Turn the appliance side over a sink and completely empty the boiler.
14 Mix a descaler agent and water at the specified ratio, prepare at least 300ml descaler mixture. (Use the recommended ratio for the mixture. If there is much scaling, properly increase the proportion of descaler.) Note: We recommend to use the descaler ECF5 from AEG. Please follow the water/ descaler liquid ratio instructions on the bottle. We recommend to clean the product every 2 months.
15 Pour out the mixture. Fill the boiler with clean water, then pour it out. Repeat this step for several times until the scale is removed and there is no longer a descaler smell. Place back one measuring cup of clean water in the boiler before reassembling. THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE CAUSED BY CLOGGING DUE TO LIME. Once cleaning is done, do not keep the boiler completely empty but leave some water still there (before closing it again).
16 Insert the cleaning brush* into the boiler opening and clean-out water remnants and lime residues while holding the appliance over a sink. (*Certain models only).
17 Clean the appliance with a slightly damp cloth. To remove stubborn stains, you may apply a small amount of non-abrasive cleaner.

Enjoy your new AEG product!

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Soleplate is not heating even though iron is turned on.	Connection problem Check main power supply cable, plug and outlet.
	Temperature setting is lower than “OUTDOOR” position.	Select adequate temperature.
Iron does not produce steam.	Not enough water in tank.	Fill water tank (see “Getting started”, no 2).
	Selected temperature is lower than that specified to use with steam.	Increase temperature to at least “●●● Linen”.
Steam boost and vertical steam boost function does not work.	Steam boost function was used very frequently within a short period.	Put iron on horizontal position and wait before using steam boost function.
	Iron is not hot enough. Adjust the proper temperature to steam ironing (up to “●●● Linen”). Put iron in vertical position and wait until temperature indicator light turns off.
Water leaks from the soleplate during ironing.	The iron is not hot enough. Set the temperature dial to a temperature (“●●● Linen” to maximum) suitable for steam ironing. Put the iron on its heel and wait until the headlight is on before you start ironing.
Flakes and impurities come out of the soleplate during ironing.	You have used hard water, which has caused scale flakes to develop in the water tank. Clean the station with descaler (see “Cleaning”, no 14).	Press and hold the steam button for about one minute to get steam. Then hold one more minute in order to clean the steam generating system. Before starting ironing, please test your iron on an old towel to ensure that no residues inside the iron are transferred to your garments.
