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 (Fig. 2) without putting back to the iron platform. This
will help reduce the stress on your wrist.
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
Fill the water tank before every use or when the water level in the water tank drops below the minimum level. You can
rell the water tank at any time during use.
1 Open the water tank lling door (Fig. 3).
2 Fill the water tank up to the MAX indication (Fig. 4).
3 Close the water tank lling door (‘click’).
English
Using the appliance
Ironable fabrics
Do not iron non-ironable fabrics.
- Fabrics with these symbols (Fig. 5) are ironable, for example linen, cotton, polyester, silk, wool, viscose and rayon.
- Fabrics with this symbol (Fig. 6) are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic fabrics such as Spandex or elastane,
Spandex-mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene). Prints on garments are not ironable either.
Ironing
1 Place the appliance 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 Remove the mains cord and water supply hose from the storage compartment.
4 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/o button to switch on the appliance.Wait until the
‘iron ready’ light lights up continuously (Fig. 7). This takes about 2 minutes.
5 For GC6819, GC6820, GC6830 and GC6840 series only: press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from the
iron platform (Fig. 8).
6 Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing (Fig. 9).
Note: For best ironing results, after ironing with steam, perform the last strokes without steam.
Warning: Never direct steam at people.
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.
7
Steam boost function
1 Press the steam trigger twice quickly to release a powerful boost of steam for 3 seconds (Fig. 10).
Note: It is recommended to use the steam boost function only for stubborn crease.
Vertical ironing
Warning: Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to remove wrinkles from a garment while someone is
wearing it (Fig. 11). 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 (Fig. 12).
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
(Fig. 2). The OptimalTEMP technology ensures the soleplate will not damage the ironing board cover.
Auto shut-o
- The appliances enters the standby mode if it has not been used for 5 minutes. The light of the on/o button starts to
ash.

- To activate the appliance again, press the on/o button or the steam trigger. The appliance starts to heat up again.
- The appliance switches o automatically if it has not been used for another 10 minutes after it enters the standby
mode. The light in the on/o button goes o.
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 appliance 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 (Fig. 13).
Besides that, a second defense step to protect the appliance from scale is integrated: the steam function gets disabled if
descaling is not done (Fig. 14). 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 (Fig. 15).
4 Press and hold the CALC-CLEAN button for 2 seconds until you hear short beeps (Fig. 16).
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 (Fig. 17).
6 Wait approximately 2 minutes for the appliance to complete the process (Fig. 18). 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 (Fig. 19).
Caution: The iron is hot.
8 As the Calc-Clean container becomes hot during the Calc-Clean process, wait about 5 minutes before you touch it.
Then carry the Calc-Clean container to the sink, empty it and store it for future use (Fig. 20).
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/

Cleaning the soleplate
To properly maintain your appliance, clean it regularly.
1 Clean the appliance with a moist cloth.
2 To easily and eectively remove stains, let the soleplate heat up and move the iron over a moist cloth (Fig. 21).
Tip: Clean the soleplate regularly to ensure smooth gliding.
Storage
1 Switch o the appliance and unplug it.
2 Pour the water out of the water tank into the sink (Fig. 22).
3 Fold the mains cord and water supply hose together. Push them into the storage compartment (Fig. 23).
4 For GC6819, GC6820, GC6830 and GC6840 series only: push the carry lock to lock the iron onto the iron platform
(Fig. 24). You can carry the appliance by the handle of the iron when it is locked onto the iron platform (Fig. 25).
