Important
Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and
save them for future reference.
◗Check if the voltage indicated on the type plate corresponds to
the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.
◗Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.
◗Do not use the appliance if the plug, the cord or the appliance
itself shows visible damage, or if the appliance has been dropped
or is leaking.
◗Check the cord regularly for possible damage.
◗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.
◗Never leave the appliance unattended when it is connected to
the mains.
◗Never immerse the iron and the stand, if provided, in water.
ENGLISH6
◗Keep the appliance out of the reach of children.
◗The soleplate of the iron can become extremely hot and may
cause burns if touched.
◗Do not allow the cord to come into contact with the soleplate
when it is hot.
◗When you have finished ironing, when you clean the appliance,
when you fill or empty the water tank and also when you leave
the iron even for a short while: set the steam control to position
0, put the iron on its heel and remove the mains plug from the
wall socket.
◗Always place and use the iron and the stand, if provided, on a
stable, level and horizontal surface.
◗This appliance is intended for household use only.
Before first use
1Remove any sticker, protective foil or plastic from the soleplate.
2Rinse and clean the filling cup.
BThe iron may give off some smoke when you use it for the first time.
This will cease after a short while.
Preparing for use
Filling the water tank
1Make sure the appliance is unplugged.
2Set the steam control to position 0 (= no steam) (fig. 2).
3Open the cap of the filling opening.
4Tilt the iron backwards and fill the water tank with tap water up
to the maximum level by means of the filling cup (fig. 3).
Do not fill the tank beyond the MAX indication.
Do not put perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or
other chemicals in the water tank.
ENGLISH 7
◗If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to mix it
with an equal portion of distilled water, or to use distilled water
only.
5Close the cap of the filling opening ('click') (fig. 4).
Setting the temperature
1Type GC4440 only: remove the heat-resistant protective cover
(fig. 5).
Do not leave the heat-resistant protective cover on the soleplate
during ironing.
2Put the iron on its heel and set the required ironing temperature
by turning the temperature dial to the appropriate position (fig. 6).
Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature:
-1Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide, polyester)
-1Silk
-2Wool
-3Cotton
- MAX 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. Avoid using the spray function to prevent
stains.
Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature,
such as those made of synthetic fibres.
3Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
◗The amber temperature light goes on (fig. 7).
4When the amber temperature light has gone out, wait a while
before you start ironing.
The temperature light will go on from time to time during ironing.

Using the appliance
Steam ironing
1Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
2Select the recommended ironing temperature (see chapter
'Preparing for use').
3Select the appropriate steam setting. Make sure that the steam
setting you select is suitable for the ironing temperature selected:
(fig. 8).
- 1 - 3 for moderate steam (temperature settings 2to 3)
- 4 - 6 for strong steam (temperature settings 3to MAX)
BThe iron will start steaming as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.
BIf the selected ironing temperature is too low (MIN to 2) water may
drip from the soleplate (see section 'Drip stop').
Ironing with Ionic DeepSteam (GC4440/GC4430 only)
When you use the ionic function during steam ironing, the steam
produced will be finer than during regular steam ironing. Fine steam
penetrates deeper into the fabric.This helps you to easily remove
stubborn creases.
1Follow steps 1 to 3 in section 'Steam ironing'.
2Switch the ionic function on by pressing the ionic steam button
('click') (fig. 9).
◗The ionic steam light goes on and you will hear a humming sound
(fig. 10).
3You can now start ionic steam ironing.
◗The humming sound automatically stops when you put the iron
on its heel, although the ionic function stays on.
4To deactivate the ionic function, press the ionic steam button
again ('click').You will continue ironing with normal steam.
ENGLISH 9
BThe ionic function is only effective when it is used in combination with a
steam setting and a temperature setting between 2and MAX.
Switch off the ionic steam function when ironing without steam and/or
at low temperature settings. However, ironing at low temperatures
without steam with the ionic function switched on will not damage the
iron.
BThe ionic steam output may vary from time to time, depending on the
ironing temperature.
Ironing without steam
1Set the steam control to position 0 (= no steam) (fig. 2).
2Make sure the ionic function is off.
3Select the recommended ironing temperature (see chapter
'Preparing for use').
