Exclusive technology from Philips

.
Compact ProVelocity technology
This technology delivers continuous steam that penetrates deeply to remove creases easily. At the
same time, it keeps the appliance more compact and lighter than traditional steam generators, for
easier storage.

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 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 level in the water tank drops below the
minimum level. You can refill the water tank at any time during use.
1 Open the water tank filling door (Fig. 2).
2 Fill the water tank up to the MAX indication (Fig. 3).
3 Close the water tank filling door ('click').
