Danger

Never immerse the iron in water.

Warning

Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate

corresponds to the local mains voltage before you

connect the appliance.

Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord

or the appliance itself shows visible damage, or if the

appliance has been dropped or leaks.

If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it

replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by

Philips or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid

a hazard.

Never leave the appliance unattended when it is

connected to the mains.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, unless they have been given supervision

or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance.

Do not let the mains cord come into contact with

the hot soleplate of the iron.

Caution

Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall

socket.

Check the mains cord regularly for possible damage.

The soleplate of the iron can become extremely hot

and may cause burns if touched.

When you have nished ironing, when you clean the

appliance, when you ll or empty the water tank and

also when you leave the iron even for a short while:

set the steam control to position O, put the iron on

its heel and remove the mains plug from the wall

socket.

Always place and use the iron on a stable, level and

horizontal surface.

Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,

ironing aids or other chemicals in the water tank.

This appliance is intended for household use only.

Electromagnetic elds (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards

regarding electromagnetic elds (EMF). If handled

properly and according to the instructions in this user

manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientic

evidence available today.

Before first use

1 Remove any sticker or protective foil from the

soleplate.

2 Let the iron heat up to maximum temperature and

pass the iron over a piece of damp cloth for several

minutes to remove any residues from the soleplate.

Preparing for use

Filling the water tank

Never immerse the iron in water.

1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.

2 Set the steam control to position O (= no

steam) (Fig. 2).

3 Tilt the iron backwards.

4 Fill the water tank with tap water up to the

maximum level. (Fig. 3)

Do not ll the water tank beyond the MAX indication.

Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents,

ironing aids or other chemicals in the water tank.

If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise

you to mix it with an equal amount of distilled

water or to use distilled water only.

Setting the temperature

1 Put the iron on its heel.

2 To set the required ironing temperature, turn the

temperature dial to the appropriate position (Fig. 4).

Check the laundry care label for the required ironing

temperature:

1 Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, viscose, polyamide,

polyester)

1 Silk

2 Wool

3 Cotton, linen

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article

is made of, determine the right ironing temperature by

ironing a part that is not visible when you wear or use

the article.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials; iron the reverse side

of the fabric to prevent shiny patches. Avoid using the

spray function to prevent stains.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing

temperature, such as those made of synthetic bres.

3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.

4 Let the iron heat up until the temperature light rst

goes out and then goes on again (Fig. 5).

Note: The temperature light goes on from time to time

during ironing.

Using the appliance

Note: The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for

the rst time. This stops after a short while.

Steam ironing

1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water

tank.

2 Set the recommended ironing temperature (see

chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Setting the

temperature’).

3 After the temperature light has gone out, set

the steam control to the appropriate steam

position. Make sure that the steam setting you

select is suitable for the ironing temperature

selected: (Fig. 6)

l for moderate steam (temperature settings 2 to

; for maximum steam (temperature settings 3 to

MAX)

The iron starts to produce steam as soon as

it reaches the set temperature.

Ironing without steam

1 Set the steam control to position O (= no steam).

2 Set the recommended ironing temperature (see

chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Setting the

temperature’).

Features

Spray function (specic types only)

You can use the spray function to remove stubborn

creases at any temperature.

1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water

tank.

2 Press the spray button several times to moisten the

article to be ironed (Fig. 7).

Steam boost (specic types only)

A powerful shot of steam helps to remove stubborn

creases.

The steam boost function can only be used at

temperature settings between 3 and MAX.

1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 8).

Wait a while before you use the button again to avoid

spluttering.

Never direct the steam at people.

Vertical steam boost (specic types only)

You can also use the steam boost function when you hold

the iron in vertical position. This is useful for removing

creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.

1 Hold the iron in vertical position. Then press and

release the steam boost button (Fig. 9)

Never direct the steam at people.

Automatic shut-off (specic types only)

The automatic shut-off function automatically switches off

the heating element if the iron has not been moved for

a while.

The auto-off light starts ashing to indicate that the

iron has been switched off by the safety shut-off

function (Fig. 10).

In horizontal position, this happens after 30 seconds.

In vertical position, this happens after 8 minutes.

1 To let the iron heat up again, pick it up or move it

slightly.

If the temperature light goes on, wait for it to go out

before you start ironing.

If the temperature light does not go on, the iron is

ready for use.

Cleaning and maintenance

After ironing

1 Put the iron on its heel.

2 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let

the iron cool down.

3 Wipe scale and any other deposits off the soleplate

with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive (liquid)

cleaner.

To keep the soleplate smooth, avoid hard contact with

metal objects. Never use a scouring pad, vinegar or

other chemicals to clean the soleplate.

4 Clean the upper part of the appliance with a damp

cloth.

5 Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty

the water tank after cleaning.

Double-Active Calc System (specic types

only)

The Double-Active Calc System consists of an Anti-Calc

tablet inside the water tank combined with the Calc-

Clean function.

The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging the

steam vents. The tablet is constantly active and does

not need replacement (Fig. 11).

The Calc-Clean function removes the scale particles.

Calc-Clean function

Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If

the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when akes come

out of the soleplate during ironing), use the Calc-Clean

function more frequently.

1 Set the steam control to position O.

2 Set the temperature dial to MAX.

3 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.

Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the

water tank.

4 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.

5 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes

out.

6 Hold the iron over the sink and set the steam

control to the Calc-Clean position x. (Fig. 12)
