Important
• Please read these instructions in conjunction with the
illustrations before using the appliance.
• Before using for the first time, check if the voltage rating on
the typeplate corresponds to the mains voltage in your home.
• Never use the appliance if it is damaged in any way.
• Take care that children cannot touch the iron when hot and
that they cannot pull the mains cord.
• The ejected steam is hot and therefore hazardous. Never direct
the steam towards people.
• Remove the plug from the socket before filling the iron with
water or pouring out the remaining water after use.
• Never immerse the iron in water.
• When you have finished ironing, and also when leaving the
iron even for a short while:
- set the steam control to position O;
- put the iron in upright position;
- remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
Note: The soleplate may become seriously corroded if the iron
is stored with the soleplate facing downwards.
• Some parts of the iron have been slightly greased and as a
result the iron may slightly smoke when switched on for the
first time. After a short while, however, this will cease.
• Before using the first time remove any sticker or protective foil
from the soleplate. Clean the soleplate with a soft cloth.
• Do not put vinegar or other descaling agents into the water
reservoir.
• Do not use chemically descaled water.
• The cordset should not be allowed to touch the soleplate when
it is hot.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be
replaced by the original type only.
Please apply to your Philips dealer or to the Philips
organisation in your country for replacement.
