Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Philips GC1490 effective for heavy clothes?
The 120g steam boost provides enough force to flatten thick denim and linen fibers. 1400W of power keeps the soleplate hot enough for heavy-duty pressing.
Can I use tap water with this iron?
The built-in self-clean function flushes mineral deposits from the 270ml tank. Monthly cleaning prevents mineral buildup from blocking the 20g/min steam output.
