Important

For optimal safety,read these instructions carefully and look at the

illustrations before you start using the appliance.

-Do not put perfume,vinegar,starch,descaling agents or other

chemicals in the steam tank.

-Never use the appliance if it is damaged in any way.Regularly check if

the mains cord and the supply hose are still undamaged and safe.

-If the mains cord is damaged,it must be replaced by Philips,a service

centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to

avoid a hazard.

-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.

-Check if the voltage indicated on the bottom of the steam tank

corresponds to the mains voltage in your home before you connect

the appliance.

-Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.

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

-Never leave the iron unattended when it is connected to the mains.

-When you have finished ironing and even when you leave the iron

for a short while,unplug the iron and put it on the iron stand.

-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.

-Always place the iron on the iron stand.Do not put the hot iron on

the supply hose or the mains cord.

ENGLISH6

-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 iron stand.

-Do not allow the cord to come into contact with the soleplate when

it is hot.

-Infirm persons should not be allowed to use the appliance without

supervision.Keep an eye on children to make sure that they do not

play with the appliance.

-If steam escapes from under the steam tank cap 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

under pressure.Follow the instructions under 'Fast refill' before

removing the cap.

Preparing the appliance for use

1Check if the voltage indicated on the bottom of the steam tank

corresponds to the mains voltage in your home before you

connect the appliance.

2Remove any sticker or protective foil from the soleplate and

clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.

3Fully unwind the mains cord (L) and supply hose (J).

4Place the steam tank (B) on a stable,level surface.

5Place the iron on the iron stand (C).

Filling the steam tank

Never immerse the steam tank in water.

Do not open the cap when the appliance is hot and the steam tank is

still under pressure.

C1Make sure the on/off switch (D) has been set to 'off' and

remove the plug from the wall socket.

C2Slowly unscrew the cap (A) of the steam tank.

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

by the cold tank being under vacuum.This is perfectly normal.

ENGLISH 7

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

Use tap water to fill the tank up to the maximum level.

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

water with an equal portion of distilled water,or to use distilled water

only.

Do not use perfume,vinegar, starch or chemically descaled water.

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

tank.

Fast refill

C1First set the on/off switch (D) to 'off'.

C2Press the steam activator button until you no longer hear any

steam escaping from the appliance.

3Keep the steam activator button pressed in and slowly unscrew

the cap of the steam tank by turning it anti-clockwise.This will

depressurise the steam tank.

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

piece of rug over the cap while unscrewing.

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.

Always place 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.

C1Set the temperature dial to the required ironing temperature

by turning it to the appropriate temperature indication.

-Check the garment label for the required ironing temperature:

-1Synthetic fabrics (e.g.acrylic,viscose,polyamide, polyester)

-1Silk

-2Wool

-3Cotton,linen

-When you do not know what kind of fabric the article is made of,

try to iron a spot which will be invisible when you wear it.

-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.

C2Put the plug in the wall socket and let the appliance heat up by

setting the on/off switch (D) to 'on'.

3Cold start:the steam tank and the soleplate will now be heated

up.The soleplate takes approximately 2 minutes to heat up and

the steam tank takes approximately 8 minutes to heat up.

4Quick 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.

5Types GC6268/GC6265/GC6068/GC6065/GC6029 only:as

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

ironing,the pilot light (E) will go out.You can now start ironing.

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.

ENGLISH 9

◗Do not use steam when you are ironing coloured silk.This could

cause stains.

Steam ironing

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

C◗Steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures

(temperature settings 2to MAX).

1Set the temperature dial to the recommended position.

See 'Setting the temperature'.

2Wait until the 'steam tank heating up' pilot light has gone out.

C3Keep the steam activator button (H) pressed in while you are

steam ironing.

Types GC6268/GC6265/GC6068/GC6065/GC6029 only:During

steam ironing,pilot light G will go on from time to time to indicate that

the steam tank and the iron are being heated up to the right

temperature and pressure.You can simply continue ironing while this

happens.

If you have not used the steaming facility 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.

BTo prevent droplets from falling onto your garments, hold the iron over an

old cloth and press the steam activator button (H) until the steam

production has normalised before you start steam ironing again.

Ironing without steam

1Set the temperature dial to the recommended position.

See 'Setting the temperature'.

2Do not press the steam activator button (H).

◗Some steam will escape if you press the steam activator button by

accident while you are ironing.If the steam tank is empty or has

not heated up yet,you will hear a clicking sound inside the tank.

This phenomenon is caused by the opening of the steam valve and

is perfectly harmless.
