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.
Using the appliance
Note
: The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for the first time. This stops
after a short while.
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.
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.
