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. R0000. The Woolmark

symbol is a certication mark in many countries.

Using the appliance

Note: The iron may give o some smoke when you use it for the rst 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.
