Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips!To fully

The new Philips PerfectCare Azur steam iron offers you an innovative

way to iron garments.We all know the fuss with traditional irons: choosing

the right temperature for tough and delicate fabrics, waiting for the iron

to warm up and cool down to avoid the risk of damaging clothes with

a too hot iron.Those hassles are things of the past with the new Philips

PerfectCare Azur steam iron.

Historically, wrinkle removal was done with a very hot soleplate, then

steam was added to enhance heat transfer and we could iron much faster.

Our research conrmed that the best way to remove wrinkles

effectively is a perfect combination of intense steam and

optimal soleplate temperature. The key to effective wrinkle

removal is the steam, not the soleplate temperature. To get

optimal steam, the soleplate temperature needs to be just

above the steam temperature.

In the past, a large amount of steam at this optimal temperature would

have led to water leakage.We have developed a unique steam chamber

that generates a consistent output of moisture-rich steam that penetrates

deep into the fabric for fast ironing with no risk of water leakage.

- Ironing is now really simple: no temperature adjustment, no scorching,

no waiting for the iron to heat up or cool down. Ironing takes less

time, no matter who does it. With this OptimalTEMP technology, every

single garment can be ironed effectively and safely.

This iron has been approved byThe 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, R1101. In the United Kingdom, Eire, Hong Kong

and India, the Woolmark trademark is a certication trademark.

Preparing for use

Filling the water tank

1 Flipopenthewatertanklid,thenllthewatertankuptothe

MAX indication.

Type of water to be used

This appliance has been designed to be used with tap water. If you live

in an area with hard water, fast scale build-up may occur. Therefore, it is

recommended to use distilled or de-mineralized water to prolong the

lifetime of the appliance.

Note: Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or

other chemicals in the water tank, as your appliance is not designed to work

with these chemicals.

Heating up

1 Insert the plug into an earthed wall socket.The SmartLight starts

ashingbluetoindicatethattheironisheatingup.

2 TheSmartLightlightsupbluesteadilywhentheironisreadyforuse.

Note: If the colour of the SmartLight is amber instead of blue, this is a

reminder that you should perform Calc-Clean function. See chapter

‘Cleaning and maintenance, section ‘Using the Calc-Clean function’.

OptimalTemp technology

The OptimalTemp technology enables you to iron all types of ironable

fabrics, in any order, without the need to adjust any temperature setting.

- Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen, cotton,

polyester, silk, wool, viscose and rayon.

- Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable.These fabrics include synthetic

fabrics such as Spandex or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and

polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on garments.

- Do not iron non-ironable fabrics.

ENGLISH 7

Steam settings

You can set different steam settings with the steam slider:

- No steam: to stop steam output when the iron is not in use.

During ironing, always choose ECO or MAX setting.

- ECO: (specic types only) to save energy, reduce the steam output,

and still have sufcient steam to iron your garments.

- MAX: to set the maximum steam output, perfect combination with

OptimalTemp setting.

For the best results and shortest ironing time, we strongly recommend that

you iron all ironable fabrics at the setting for maximum steam output.

1 Make sure there is enough water in the water tank.

2 Push the steam slider to the desired steam setting.

Note:The iron starts to produce steam when the SmartLight lights up

blue steadily.

Ironing tips

Minimising wrinkles while drying

Start wrinkle removal early in the drying process by spreading out the

laundry properly after washing. Put the garments on hangers to make them

dry naturally with less wrinkles.

Shirt ironing

Start with the time-consuming parts such as collar, cuff links and sleeves.

Next, iron the bigger parts like front and back. By doing this, you prevent

wrinkling the bigger parts when you are busy ironing the time-consuming

ones.

Collar: When you iron a collar, start on its underside and iron from the

outside (the pointy end) inwards. Turn over and repeat. Fold down the

collar and press the edge for a crisp nish.

Buttons: Iron on the reverse side of the buttons for more effective and

faster ironing.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning

1 Setthesteamslidertothe‘nosteam’position,removetheplugfrom

the wall socket and let the iron cool down.

2 Wipeakesandanyotherdepositsoffthesoleplatewithadamp

clothandanon-abrasive(liquid)cleaningagent.

Tokeepthesoleplatesmooth,avoidhardcontactwithmetalobjects.

Neveruseascouringpad,vinegarorotherchemicalstocleanthe

soleplate.

3 Cleantheupperpartoftheironwithadampcloth.

4 Regularly rinse the water tank with water. Empty the water tank

afteryouhaverinsedit.

Calc-Clean System
