Important

Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and

save them for future reference.

◗Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to

the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.

◗Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.

◗Do not use the appliance if the plug, the cord, the supply hose or

the appliance itself shows visible damage, or if the appliance has

been dropped or is leaking.

◗Check the cord and the supply hose regularly for possible

damage.

◗If the mains cord or the supply hose is damaged, it must be

replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or

similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

◗Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to the

mains.

◗Never immerse the iron or the steam tank in water.

◗Keep the appliance out of the reach of children.

◗Always place and use the iron and the steam tank on a stable,

level and horizontal surface. Do not put the steam tank on the

soft part of the ironing board.

◗Do not allow the mains cord and supply hose to come into

contact with the soleplate when it is hot.

◗The iron stand and the soleplate of the iron can become

extremely hot and may cause burns if touched. If you want to

move the steam tank, do not touch the stand.

ENGLISH 7

◗When you have finished ironing, when you clean the appliance,

when you fill 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.

◗Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids

or other chemicals in the water tank.

◗If steam escapes from under the steam tank cap when the

appliance is heating up, switch the appliance off and tighten the

steam tank cap. If steam continues to escape when the appliance is

heating up, switch the appliance off and contact a service centre

authorised by Philips.

◗Do not remove the cap from the steam tank when the steam tank

is still under pressure. Follow the instructions given later in this

manual.

◗Do not use any other cap on the steam tank than the cap that has

been supplied with the appliance, as this cap also functions as a

safety valve.

◗This appliance is intended for household use only.

Before first use

1Remove any sticker or protective foil from the soleplate and

clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.

2Fully unwind the mains cord and supply hose.

3Place the steam tank on a stable, level surface.

4Place the iron on the iron stand.

Preparing for use

Filling the steam tank

Never immerse the steam tank in water.

Do not open the cap when the iron and the steam tank are still hot.

1Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.

C2Slowly unscrew the cap of the steam tank.

You may hear a sound when you remove the cap.This sound is caused

by the vacuum or residual pressure inside the steam tank and is

perfectly normal.

C3Pour water into the steam tank (max. 1 litre).

Use tap water to fill the tank.

◗If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to use

50% distilled water and 50% tap water.

Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or

other chemicals in the steam tank.

4Screw the cap tightly onto the filling aperture of the steam

tank.

Fast refill

C1Keep the appliance plugged into the mains and make sure the

iron is on.Then set the steam tank switch to 'off'.

C2Press the steam activator until you no longer hear any steam

escaping from the appliance.

3Keep the steam activator pressed in and slowly unscrew the

cap of the steam tank by turning it anticlockwise.This will

depressurise the steam tank.

Make sure there is no steam left in the steam tank. Place a piece of

cloth over the cap when unscrewing it.

4Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.

5Fill the steam tank as described in section 'Filling the steam

tank' and let the appliance heat up again.

Setting the temperature

Always place the steam tank on a stable, level and horizontal surface

Do not put the steam tank on the soft part of the ironing board.

1Put the iron on the iron stand.

Do not put the hot iron on the supply hose or the mains cord. Make

sure the cord does not come into contact with the hot soleplate.

C2Set the required ironing temperature by turning the

temperature dial to the appropriate position.

Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature:

ENGLISH8

If you do not know what kind(s) of fabric(s) an article is made of,

determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that will not

be visible when you wear or use the article.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric

to prevent shiny patches.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature,

such as those made of synthetic fibres.

C3Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and set both the

steam tank switch and the iron switch to 'on'.The steam tank

and the soleplate will now heat up.

◗The iron is hot enough when the temperature light goes out.

◗During steam ironing the temperature light goes on from time to

time.This indicates that the iron is heating up to the right

temperature.

◗If you have been ironing at a high temperature and subsequently

set the temperature dial to a lower setting, wait until the

temperature light goes on again before you continue ironing.

This will prevent damage to your fabrics.

Tips

- If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, always select the

temperature required by the most delicate fibre, i.e. the lowest

temperature. For example: if an article consists of 60% polyester and

40% cotton, it should be ironed at the temperature indicated for

polyester (1) and without steam.

- When steam ironing woollen fabrics, shiny patches may occur.You

can prevent this by using a dry pressing cloth or by turning the

article inside out and ironing the reverse side.

- Velvet and other fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches should be

ironed in one direction only (along with the nap) while applying very

little pressure.

Using the appliance

Steam ironing

1Make sure that there is enough water in the steam tank.

◗Steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures

(temperature settings 2to MAX).

C2Select a steam setting suitable for the selected ironing

temperature:

- Select steam setting MIN (no steam) for temperature setting 1(see

'Ironing without steam').

- Select a low to medium steam setting for temperature setting 2.

- Select a medium to MAX steam setting for temperature settings

3to MAX.

3The steam tank and the soleplate will now heat up.

- Cold start: the soleplate takes approximately 2 minutes to heat up

and the steam tank takes approximately 8 minutes to heat up.

- Quick reheat: if you refill the steam tank during the ironing process,

the water in the steam tank will take approximately 6 minutes to

heat up.

4As soon as the water in the steam tank is hot enough for

steam ironing, the steam tank power-on light goes out

(GC6104, GC6103 only).The steam-ready light goes on

(GC6107 only).

◗During steam ironing the steam-ready light goes on from time to

time.This indicates that the steam tank is being heated up to the

right temperature.

C5Keep the steam activator pressed in while you are steam

ironing.

◗If you want to use the steam function continuously, slide the

steam activator lock to the locking position.

6To stop steaming, release the steam activator lock.

If you have not used the steam function for some time, the steam that

was still present in the supply hose will have condensed into water.

When you start steam ironing again, this may cause some spluttering in

the appliance and a few droplets of water may escape from the

soleplate.
