My Philips Steam Generator Iron leaves a shine or imprint on the garment

Published on 13 July 2025

The surface you were ironing with your Philips Steam Generator Iron was uneven, possibly because you were ironing over a seam or a fold in the garment. With OptimalTEMP technology, you can safely iron all ironable garments. Any shine or imprint is not permanent and will come off after washing the garment. To avoid imprints on the seams and folds, try not to iron directly over them, or place a cotton cloth over the area to be ironed.
