Philips GC4444 - Manual (Page 9)

Features
spray function
You can use the spray function at any temperature to moisten the article to be ironed. This helps
remove stubborn creases.
1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water tank.
 Press the spray button several times to moisten the article to be ironed (Fig. 10).
steam boost function
A steam boost from the special Steam Tip soleplate helps remove stubborn creases. The steam
boost enhances the distribution of steam into every part of your garment.
The steam boost function can only be used at temperature settings between 3 and MAX.
1 Press and release the steam boost button (Fig. 11).
Vertical steam boost
1 You can also use the steam boost function when you hold the iron in vertical position
(Fig. 12).
This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.
Never direct the steam at people.
Drip stop
This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically stops producing steam when
the temperature is too low, to prevent water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens,
you may hear a sound.
automatic shut-off function (gC4444, gC4440, gC4430, gC4425, gC4422,
GC4420, GC4412 only)
The automatic shut-off function automatically switches off the iron if it has not been moved for a
while.
The red AUTO/OFF indication of the temperature light flashes to indicate that the iron has
been switched off by the automatic shut-off function.
To let the iron heat up again:
1 Pick up the iron or move it slightly.
The red AUTO/OFF indication goes out.
If the temperature of the soleplate has dropped below the set ironing temperature, the
amber temperature light goes on.
 If the amber temperature light goes on after you have moved the iron, wait for it to go out
before you start ironing.
Note: If the amber temperature light does not go on after you move the iron, the soleplate still has the
right temperature and the iron is ready for use.
Delicate fabric protector (GC4425, GC4415 only)
The delicate fabric protector protects delicate fabrics from heat damage and shiny patches.
With the delicate fabric protector you can iron delicate fabrics (silk, wool and nylon) at temperature
settings 3 to MAX in combination with all steam functions available on the iron.
The delicate fabric protector reduces the soleplate temperature instantly, thus allowing you to iron
delicate fabrics safely.
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 is not visible when you wear or use the article.
