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 (Fig. 2) 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.
R1603. The Woolmark symbol is a certification mark in many
countries.
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 (Fig. 3).

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.
