    How to clean the soleplate of my Philips Steam Generator Iron

    Published on 16 July 2025

    To find out how to clean the surface of the soleplate of your Philips Steam Generator Iron, see the options below.

    Option 1:

    1. Clean the surface of the soleplate of your Philips Steam Generator Iron with a moist cloth. You can use a small amount of washing-up liquid to remove difficult stains.

    Option 2:

    Switch on the appliance and let it heat up. When the appliance has heated up, move the iron over a moist cloth while you press the steam trigger (see image below). Ensure that you clean the soleplate regularly for smooth gliding.

    Note: Do not use soap or scrub the soleplate during cleaning.

    If none of the solutions above solve the issue, please contact us for further assistance.
