Philips Steam iron GC4914/20 GC4914/20 User Manual

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: (specific types only) to save energy, reduce the steam output,  

and still have sufficient 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. 

Ironing 
With the OptimalTemp technology, you can iron every single garment 

effectively and safely, even delicate fabrics like silk without having to worry 

about temperature settings.

 1 

You can start ironing when the SmartLight stops flashing and lights up

blue steadily. (See chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Heating up’).

Spray function

helps to remove stubborn creases.

Press the spray button several times to moisten the garment to be

ironed.

Steam boost function
A steam boost from the soleplate helps removing stubborn creases. The
