Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature:

- 1 for synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide, polyester)

- 1 for silk

- 2 for wool

- 3 for cotton

- MAX for linen

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 will not be

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 bres.

When you use the Ionic DeepSteam function during steam ironing, the

steam produced is ner than during regular steam ironing. Fine steam

reaches deeper, especially into thick fabrics. This helps you to remove

stubborn creases easily.

Note: The Ionic DeepSteam function is only effective when it is used in

combination with a steam setting and a temperature setting between 2

Note: Do not use the Ionic DeepSteam function when you iron without steam

and/or at low temperature settings. However, ironing at low temperatures

without steam with the Ionic DeepSteam function switched on will not

damage the iron.

Note: The Ionic DeepSteam output may vary from time to time, depending on

the ironing temperature.

Steam boost function

A steam boost from the special Steam Tip soleplate helps remove

stubborn creases. The steam boost enhances the distribution of steam

into every part of your garment.

The steam boost function can only be used at temperature settings

between 3 and MAX.

This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.

Never direct the steam at people.

Drip stop

This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically

stops producing steam when the temperature is too low, to prevent

water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens, you may

hear a sound.

The delicate fabric protector protects delicate fabrics from heat damage

and shiny patches.

With the delicate fabric protector you can iron delicate fabrics (silk, wool

and nylon) at temperature settings 3 to MAX in combination with all

steam functions available on the iron.

The delicate fabric protector reduces the soleplate temperature instantly,

thus allowing you to iron delicate fabrics safely.

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.

If the appliance does not work or does not work properly, rst check the

list below. If the problem is not mentioned in this list, the appliance

probably has a defect. In that case we advise you to take the appliance to

your dealer or to an authorised Philips service centre.

Problem Possiblecause Solution

The iron is

plugged in,

but the

soleplate is

cold.

There is a

connection

problem.

Check the mains cord, the plug

and the wall socket.

The temperature

dial is set to MIN.

Set the temperature dial to the

required position.

The iron

does not

produce any

steam.

There is not

enough water in

the water tank.

Fill the water tank (see chapter

‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Filling

the water tank’).

The steam control

is set to position 0.

Set the steam control to a

position between 1 and 6 (see

chapter ‘Using the appliance’,

section ‘Steam ironing’).

ENGLISH 15

4239.000.6443.6.indd 15 21-10-09 14:11

Problem Possiblecause Solution

The iron is not hot

enough and/or the

drip-stop function

has been activated.

Set an ironing temperature that is

suitable for steam ironing ( 2 to

MAX). Put the iron on its heel

and wait until the temperature

light has gone out before you

start ironing.

The iron

does not

produce a

steam

boost.

You have used the

steam boost

function too often

within a very short

period.

Continue ironing in horizontal

position and wait a while before

you use the steam boost function

again.

The iron is not hot

enough.

Set an ironing temperature at

which the steam boost function

can be used ( 3 to MAX). Put

the iron on its heel and wait until

the temperature light has gone

out before you use the steam

boost function.

Water

droplets

drip onto

the fabric

during

ironing.

You have not closed

the cap of the lling

opening properly.

Press the cap until you hear a

click.

You have put an

additive in the

water tank.

Rinse the water tank and do not

put any additive in the water tank.

The set

temperature is too

low for steam

ironing.

Set a temperature of or 2

higher.

ENGLISH16

4239.000.6443.6.indd 16 21-10-09 14:11

Problem Possiblecause Solution

You have used the

steam boost

function at a

temperature setting

below 3.

Set the temperature dial to a

setting between 3 and MAX.

Water drips

from the

soleplate

after the

iron has

cooled

down or

has been

stored.

You have put the

iron in horizontal

position with water

still left in the water

tank.

Empty the water tank.

Flakes and

impurities

come out of

the

soleplate

during

ironing.

Hard water forms

akes inside the

soleplate.

Use the Calc-Clean function one

or more times (see chapter

‘Cleaning and maintenance’,

section ‘Using the Calc-Clean

function’).

The red

light ashes

(specic

types only).

The automatic

shut-off function

has switched off the

iron (see chapter

‘Features’, section

‘Automatic shut-off

function’).

Move the iron slightly to

deactivate the automatic shut-off

function. The red AUTO/OFF light

goes out.

ENGLISH 17

4239.000.6443.6.indd 17 21-10-09 14:11

Problem Possiblecause Solution

The iron

makes a

humming

sound.

The Ionic

function is on.

If you hear the humming sound

when you iron without steam,

stop pressing the Ionic

DeepSteam button. The Ionic

- Преди да включите уреда в контакта, проверете дали

напрежението, отбелязано на табелката на уреда, отговаря на

напрежението на местната електрическа мрежа.

- Не използвайте уреда, ако щепселът, захранващият кабел или

самият уред имат видими повреди, както и ако уредът е падал

или тече.

- Ако захранващият кабел се повреди, той трябва винаги да се

подменя от Philips, упълномощен сервиз на Philips или подобни

квалифицирани лица, за да се избегне опасност.

- Никога не оставяйте уреда без наблюдение, когато е включен в

контакт.

- Този уред не е предназначен за ползване от хора (включително

деца) с намалени физически усещания или умствени недостатъци

или без опит и познания, ако са оставени без наблюдение и не са

инструктирани от страна на отговарящо за тяхната безопасност

лице относно начина на използване на уреда.

- Наглеждайте децата, за да не си играят с уреда.

- Не допускайте захранващият кабел да се допира до горещата

гладеща повърхност на ютията.

- Включвайте уреда само в заземен мрежов контакт.

- Проверявайте редовно за евентуални повреди на захранващия

кабел.

- Гладещата плоча на ютията може да се нагорещи много и да

причини изгаряне при докосване.

- Когато сте свършили с гладенето, когато почиствате уреда,

когато пълните или изпразвате резервоара за вода, а също и

когато оставяте ютията дори за момент: поставете регулатора

на парата в положение 0, поставете ютията върху петата й и

изключете щепсела от контакта.

- Винаги поставяйте и използвайте ютията върху хоризонтална,

равна и стабилна повърхност.
