Important
For optimal safety, read these instructions carefully and look at the
illustrations before you start using the appliance.
- Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents or other
chemicals in the steam 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 is damaged, it must be replaced by Philips, a service
centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
- 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.
