Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully

benet from the support that Philips oers, register your product at

www.philips.com/welcome.

Read this user manual, the important information leaet, and the quick

start guide carefully before you use the appliance. Save them for future

reference.

Exclusive technology from Philips

OptimalTEMP technology

The OptimalTEMP technology enables you to iron all types of ironable

fabrics, in any order, without adjusting the iron temperature and without

sorting your garments.

It is safe to just rest the hot soleplate directly on the ironing board without

putting back to the iron platform. This will help reduce the stress on your

wrist.

This iron has been approved by The Woolmark Company Pty Ltd for the

ironing of wool-only products, provided that the garments are ironed

according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the

manufacturer of this iron. R1602. In the United Kingdom, Eire, Hong Kong

and India, the Woolmark trademark is a certication trademark.

Compact ProVelocity Technology

This technology delivers continuous steam that penetrates deeply to

remove creases easily. At the same time, it keeps the appliance more

compact and lighter than traditional steam generators, for easier storage.

Preparing for use

Type of water to use

This appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. However,

if you live in an area with hard water, fast scale build-up may occur.

Therefore, it is recommended to use distilled or demineralized water to

prolong the lifetime of the appliance.

Warning: Do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble

dryer, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically

descaled water or other chemicals, as they may cause water

spitting, brown staining or damage to your appliance.

Filling the water tank

1 Fill the water tank before every use or when the water level in the water

tank drops below the minimum level. You can rell the water tank at any

time during use.

2 Remove the water tank from the base.

3 Fill the water tank up to the MAX indication.

4 Put the water tank back into the appliance by tting the bottom part

into the appliance rst.

5 Push in the top part of the water tank until it locks into place ('click').

English

Using the appliance

Ironable fabrics

Do not iron non-ironable fabrics.

Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen, cotton,

polyester, silk, wool, viscose and rayon.

Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic

fabrics such as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and

polyolens (e.g. polypropylene). Prints on garments are not ironable either.

Ironing

1 Place the steam generator on a stable and even surface.

Note: In order to ensure safe ironing we recommend to always place the

base on a stable ironing board.

2 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.

3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/o

button to switch on the steam generator. Wait until the 'iron ready' light

lights up continuously. This takes approx. 2 minutes.

4 Remove the water supply hose from the water supply hose storage

compartment.

5 Press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from the iron

platform.

6 Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing.

Warning: Never direct steam at people.

7 For best ironing results, after ironing with steam, perform the last

strokes without steam.

Note: When you use the appliance for the rst time, it may take 30 seconds

for steam to come out of the appliance.

Note: The pump is activated each time you press the steam trigger. It

produces subtle rattling sound, which is normal. When there is no water in

the water tank, the pump sound is louder. Fill up the water tank with water

when the water level drops below the minimum level.

English

For more powerful steam, you can use the TURBO steam mode, which is

safe on all ironable fabrics.

For fabrics such as cotton, jeans and linen, you are recommended to use

the TURBO steam mode.

1 Press and hold the on/o button for 2 seconds until the light turns

white.

2 To deactivate the TURBO mode, press and hold the on/o button for 2

seconds again until the light turns blue.

Steam boost function

Use the steam boost function to remove stubborn creases.

1 Press the steam trigger twice quickly.

Vertical ironing

Warning: Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to

remove wrinkles from a garment while someone is wearing it.

Do not apply steam near your or someone else's hand.

You can use the steam iron in vertical position to remove wrinkles from

hanging fabrics.

1 Hold the iron in vertical position, press the steam trigger and touch the

garment lightly with the soleplate and move the iron up and down.

Safe rest

Resting the iron while rearranging your garment

While rearranging your garment, you can rest the iron either on the

iron platform or horizontally on the ironing board. The OptimalTEMP

technology ensures the soleplate will not damage the ironing board cover.

English

Energy saving

Eco mode

By using the ECO mode (reduced amount of steam), you can save energy

without compromising on the ironing result.

1 To activate the ECO mode, press the ECO button. The green ECO light

goes on.

2 To deactivate the ECO mode, press the ECO button again. The green

ECO light goes out.

Safety auto-o mode (specic types only)

-To save energy, the appliance switches o automatically when it has

not been used for 5 minutes. The auto-o light in the on/o button

starts to ash.

-To activate the appliance again, press the on/o button. The appliance

then starts to heat up again.

Warning: Never leave the appliance unattended when it is

connected to the mains. Always unplug the appliance after use.

Cleaning and maintenance

Smart Calc-Clean System

Your appliance has been designed with a Smart Calc-Clean system to

ensure that descaling and cleaning is done regularly. This helps to maintain

a strong steam performance and prevents dirt and stains coming out of the

soleplate over time. To ensure that the cleaning process is performed, the

steam generator gives regular reminders.

Sound and light Calc-Clean reminder

After 1 to 3 months of use, the Calc-Clean light starts ashing and the

appliance starts beeping to indicate that you have to perform the Calc-

Clean process.

English

Besides that, a second defense step to protect the steam generator from

scale is integrated: the steam function gets disabled if descaling is not

done. After descaling is done, the steam function will be restored. This

takes place regardless of the type of water used.

Note: The Calc-Clean process can be performed at any time, even when

the sound and light reminder is not activated yet.

Performing the Calc-Clean process with the Calc-Clean

container

Warning: Do not leave the appliance unattended during the Calc-

Clean process.

Caution: Always perform the Calc-Clean process with the Calc-Clean

container. Do not interrupt the process by lifting the iron up from the

Calc-Clean container, as hot water and steam will come out of the

soleplate.

1 Fill up the water tank halfway.

Note: Make sure that the appliance is plugged in and switched ON

during the Calc-Clean process.

2 Place the Calc-Clean container on the ironing board or any other even,

stable surface.

3 Place the iron stably on the Calc-Clean container.

English

4 Press and hold the CALC-CLEAN button for 2 seconds until you hear

short beeps.

Note: The Calc-Clean container has been designed to collect scale

particles and hot water during the Calc-Clean process. It is perfectly

safe to rest the iron on this container during the entire process.

5 During the Calc-Clean process, you hear short beeps and a pumping

sound.

6 Wait approximately 2 minutes for the appliance to complete the

process. When the Calc-Clean process is completed, the iron stops

beeping and the CALC-CLEAN light stops ashing.

7 Wipe the iron with a piece of cloth and put it back on the base station.

Caution: The iron is hot.

8 As the Calc-Clean container becomes hot during the Calc-Clean

process, wait approx. 5 minutes before you touch it. Then carry the

Calc-Clean container to the sink, empty it and store it for future use.

9 If necessary, you can repeat steps 1 to 8. Make sure that you empty the

Calc-Clean container before you start the Calc-Clean process.

Note: During the Calc-Clean process, clean water may come out of the

soleplate if no scale has accumulated inside the iron. This is normal.

For more information on how to carry out the Calc-Clean process, refer to

the videos in this link: http://www.philips.com/descaling-iron.
