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 (50% demineralized/distilled water mixed with water could be used as well) 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 tank empty’ light ashes. You can rell the
water tank at any time during use.
1 Remove the water tank from the appliance (Fig. 2) and ll it with water up to the MAX indication
(Fig. 3).
2 Put the water tank back into the appliance by tting the bottom part into the appliance rst.
3 Push in the top part of the water tank until it locks into place (‘click’) (Fig. 4).
Water tank empty light
When the water tank is almost empty, the ‘water tank empty’ light ashes (Fig. 5). Fill the water tank
and press the steam trigger to let the appliance heat up again. When the ‘iron ready’ light lights up
continuously, you can continue steam ironing.
English

Using the appliance
OptimalTEMP technology
Warning: Do not iron non-ironable fabrics.
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. 6) without putting back to the
iron platform. This will help reduce the stress on your wrist.
-Fabrics with these symbols (Fig. 7) are ironable, for example linen, cotton, polyester, silk, wool,
viscose and rayon.
-Fabrics with this symbol (Fig. 8) are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic fabrics such
as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene). Prints on
garments are not ironable either.
Ironing
1 Place 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 with the board size tting for steam generators.
2 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank (see ‘Filling the water tank’).
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and press the on/o button to switch on the
steam generator. Wait until the ‘iron ready’ light lights up continuously (Fig. 9). This takes approx.
2 minutes.
4 Remove the steam supply hose from the steam supply compartment.
5 Press the carry lock release button to unlock the iron from the iron platform (Fig. 10).
6 Press and hold the steam trigger to start ironing (Fig. 11).
Note: For rst use, press and hold the steam trigger continuously for up to 30 seconds for steam. It
can take a longer time if the iron is stored for a long time.
7 For best ironing results, after ironing with steam, perform the last strokes without steam.
MAX setting
For faster ironing and a higher amount of steam, you can use MAX setting.
1 Press and hold the on/o button for 5 seconds until the light turns white.
2 The appliance returns to normal steam mode automatically after 15 minutes to save energy.
3 Otherwise, to switch back to normal steam mode at any time, press and hold the on/o button for
2 seconds until the light turns blue again.
Steam boost function
The steam boost function is designed to help tackle dicult creases.
-Press the steam trigger twice quickly to activate the steam boost function. The appliance releases
3 powerful shots of steam.
-To stop the steam boost function, press the steam trigger once.
Vertical ironing
Warning: Hot steam is emitted from the iron. Never attempt to remove wrinkles from a garment
while someone is wearing it (Fig. 12). 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.
English

8
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. 13).
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. 6). The OptimalTEMP technology ensures the soleplate will not damage the ironing
board cover.
Energy saving
Auto-shut o
-To save energy, the appliance switches o automatically when it has not been used for 10 minutes.
The auto-o light in the on/o button starts to ash.
-To activate the appliance again, press the on/o 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.
Cleaning and maintenance
Descaling the appliance
It is very important to use the EASY DECALC function as soon as the ‘EASY DECALC’ light starts to ash
(Fig. 14).
The ‘EASY DECALC’ light ashes after about a month or 10 ironing sessions to indicate that the
appliance needs to be descaled. Perform the following EASY DECALC procedure before you continue
ironing.
Note: If your water is hard, increase the descaling frequency.
Warning: To avoid the risk of burns, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for at least two
hours before you perform the EASY DECALC procedure (Fig. 15).
1 Remove the plug from the wall socket.
2 Remove the detachable water tank (Fig. 2).
3 Remove the iron from the iron platform.
4 Hold and shake the base of the steam generator (Fig. 16).
5 Remove the EASY DECALC knob (Fig. 17).
6 Hold the base of the steam generator over the sink and empty it through the EASY DECALC
opening (Fig. 18).
Note: Be mindful on the heavy weight of the appliance when you tilt it.
7 Reinsert the EASY DECALC knob and turn it clockwise to fasten it (Fig. 19).
8 You can continue using your iron immediately after completing the EASY DECALC procedure.
Descaling the soleplate
If you do not descale your appliance regularly, you may see brown stains coming out of the soleplate
due to scale particles. Descale the soleplate by following the procedure below. We advise you to
perform the procedure twice for better results.
1 Make sure the appliance is cool and clean the soleplate with a damp cloth.
English

9
2 Remove the water tank and iron from the iron platform.
3 Remove the EASY DECALC knob and empty the water through the EASY DECALC opening.
4 Hold the appliance in the position that the EASY DECALC opening is facing up and pour 500ml
water into the opening via a bottle or cup. (Fig. 20).
Note: Do not ll the boiler with water under the running tap.
Note: Be mindful on the heavy weight of the appliance when you tilt it.
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.
5 Keep the EASY DECALC opening facing up, reinsert the EASY DECALC knob and turn it clockwise to
fasten it (Fig. 21).
6 Put the appliance back on a stable and even surface. Fill up the water tank halfway. Switch on the
appliance and wait for 5 minutes.
7 Keep the steam trigger pressed continuously while you iron a few pieces of thick cloth in a back-
and-forth motion for 3 minutes (Fig. 22).
Warning: Hot, dirty water (about 100-150 ml) comes out of the soleplate.
8 Stop cleaning when no more water comes out of the soleplate.
9 You can continue to use the appliance immediately. Otherwise unplug the appliance after the
descaling is completed.
Storage
1 Switch o the appliance and unplug it.
Note: it is recommended to empty the water tank after every use.
2 Place the iron on the iron platform and lock it by pushing the carry lock release button (Fig. 23).
3 Let the appliance cool down completely.
4 Fold the supply hose and wind the supply hose inside the supply hose storage compartment
(Fig. 24).
5 Fold the mains cord and fasten it with the Velcro strip.
6 You can carry the appliance with one hand by the handle of the iron when the iron is locked on the
iron platform.
Troubleshooting
This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you
are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list
of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.
Problem Cause Solution
Dirty water, brown stains
or white akes come out
of the soleplate.
Scale has built up inside the
appliance because it has not been
descaled regularly.
Descale the appliance and the
soleplate (see chapter ‘Cleaning
and maintenance’).
You have put chemicals or additives
in the water tank.
Never use chemical or additives
with the appliance. If you have
already done so, follow the
procedure in chapter ‘Cleaning
and maintenance’ to remove the
chemicals.
English

10
Problem Cause Solution
There is no or little steam. The appliance has not heated up
suciently.
Wait until the iron ready light
stays on continuously. This takes
approx. 2 minutes.
There is not enough water in the
water tank.
Fill the water tank up to the MAX
indication.
Scale has built up inside the
appliance because it has not been
descaled regularly.
Descale the appliance and
soleplate (see chapter ‘Cleaning
and maintenance’).
Water leaks from the
soleplate.
Steam condenses into water in the
hose when you use steam for the
rst time or have not used it for a
long time.
This is normal. Hold the iron away
from the garment and press the
steam trigger. Wait until steam
instead of water comes out of the
soleplate.
The ironing board cover
becomes wet, or there
are water droplets on the
oor/garment.
Your board cover is not designed to
cope with the high steam rate.
Use a layer of felt material in the
board cover to prevent water
droplets.
The surface under the
base of the appliance
becomes wet, or steam
and/or water comes out
from under the EASY
DECALC knob.
The EASY DECALC knob is not
tightened properly.
Switch o the appliance and
wait 2 hours for it to cool down.
Unscrew and reattach the knob to
make sure it is tightened.
The rubber sealing ring of the EASY
DECALC knob is worn.
Contact an authorized Philips
service center for a new EASY
DECALC knob.
The iron does not heat up
and the amber DECALC
light ashes.
The appliance reminds you to
perform the descaling procedure.
The light ashes after approximately
one month of use.
Perform the descaling procedure,
following the instructions in
section ‘Descaling the appliance’.
