Important
For optimal safety, read these instructions carefully and look at the
illustrations before you start using the appliance.
- Do not put perfume, vinegar, descaling agents or other chemicals in
the water tank.
- Never use the appliance if it is damaged in any way. Regularly check if
the mains cord and the supply hose are still undamaged and safe.
- If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must always be
replaced by Philips or a service centre authorised by Philips, as
special tools and/or parts are required.
- Do not use any other cap on the steam tank than the cap that has
been supplied with the appliance, as this cap also functions as a safety
valve.
- Check if the voltage indicated on the bottom of the steam tank
corresponds to the mains voltage in your home before you connect
the appliance.
- Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.
- Never immerse the iron or the steam tank in water.
- Never leave the iron unattended when it is connected to the mains.
- When you have finished ironing and even when you leave the iron
for a short while, unplug the iron and put it on the iron stand.
- Always place the steam tank on a stable, level and horizontal surface.
Do not put the steam tank on the soft part of the ironing board.
- Always place the iron on the iron stand. Do not put the hot iron on
the supply hose or the mains cord. Make sure the cord does not
come into contact with the hot soleplate.
- The iron stand and the soleplate of the iron can become extremely
hot and may cause burns if touched. If you want to move the steam
tank, do not touch the iron stand.
- Do not allow the cord to come into contact with the hot soleplate.
