Philips Azur Ionic GC4730, Manual

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of, determine the right ironing 

temperature by ironing a part that is not visible when you wear or use the article.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric to prevent shiny patches. To 

prevent stains, do not use the spray function.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, such as those made of 

synthetic fibres.

Ironing with Ionic DeepSteam (specific types only)

When you use the Ionic DeepSteam function during steam ironing, the steam produced is finer than 

during regular steam ironing. Fine steam reaches deeper, especially into thick fabrics. This helps you 

to remove stubborn creases easily.

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

 2 

 Set the required ironing temperature (see chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Selecting 

temperature and steam setting’) (Fig. 7).

The blue Ionic DeepSteam light goes on and you hear a humming sound (Fig. 11).

 The iron now produces Ionic DeepSteam to help you remove even the toughest 

creases (Fig. 12).

Note: The Ionic DeepSteam function is only effective when it is used in combination with a steam setting 

and a temperature setting between  

2

 and MAX.
