Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.
Read this user manual, the important information leaflet, and the quick start guide carefully before you use the appliance. Save them for future reference.
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. R1701. In the United Kingdom, Eire, Hong Kong and India, the Woolmark trademark is a certification trademark.
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.

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.
1Fill the water tank before every use or when the water level in the water tank drops below the minimum level. You can refill 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 fitting the bottom part into the appliance first.
5 Push in the top part of the water tank until it locks into place ('click').
8 English
Warning: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 polyolefins (e.g. polypropylene). Prints on garments are not ironable either.
1Place 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.
2Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
3Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/off button to switch on the steam generator. Wait until the 'iron ready' light lights up
continuously. This takes approx. 2 minutes.
4 Remove the supply hose from the hose storage compartment.
5 Press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from the iron platform.
English 9
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 first 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.
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.
1Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds until the light turns white.
2To deactivate the TURBO mode, press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds again until the light turns blue.
Use the steam boost function to remove stubborn creases.
1 Press the steam trigger twice quickly.
2X
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.
10 English
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.
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.
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.
2To deactivate the ECO mode, press the ECO button again. The green ECO light goes out.
-To save energy, the appliance switches off automatically when it has not been used for 5 minutes. The auto-off light in the on/off button starts to flash.
-To activate the appliance again, press the on/off 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.
English 11
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.
After 1 to 3 months of use, the Calc-Clean light starts flashing and the appliance starts beeping to indicate that you have to perform the CalcClean process.
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.
Warning: Do not leave the appliance unattended during the CalcClean 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.
12 English
1 Fill up the water tank halfway.
Note: Make sure that the appliance is plugged in and switched ON during the Calc-Clean process.
2Place the Calc-Clean container on the ironing board or any other even, stable surface.
3 Place the iron stably on the Calc-Clean container.
4Press 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.
2 SEC
5During the Calc-Clean process, you hear short beeps and a pumping sound.
2 MIN.
English 13
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 flashing.
7 Wipe the iron with a piece of cloth and put it back on the base station.
Caution: The iron is hot.
8As 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.
To properly maintain your appliance, clean it regularly. 1 Clean the appliance with a moist cloth.
2 To easily and effectively remove stains, let the soleplate heat up and
move the iron over a moist cloth.
Tip: Clean the soleplate regularly to ensure smooth gliding.
1 Switch off the steam generator and unplug it.
14 English
2 Pour the water out of the water tank into the sink.
3 Fold the supply hose. Wind the supply hose inside the supply hose storage compartment and secure it inside the storage hook.
4 Fold the mains cord and fasten it with the Velcro strip.
5 Push the carry lock release button to lock the iron onto the iron platform.
6You can carry the appliance with one hand by the handle of the iron when the iron is locked on the iron platform.
