Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit
from the support that Philips offers, register your product at

Read this user manual, the important information leaflet, and the quick start

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. R1701. In the United Kingdom, Eire, Hong Kong and
India, the Woolmark trademark is a certification 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
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.
2Remove the water tank from the base.
3Fill the water tank up to the MAX indication.
4Put the water tank back into the appliance by fitting the bottom part into
the appliance first.
5Push in the top part of the water tank until it locks into place ('click').

platform.
6Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing.
Warning: Never direct steam at people.
7For 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.

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.
1Hold 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.
Energy saving
Eco mode
By using the ECO mode (reduced amount of steam), you can save energy
without compromising on the ironing result.
