Water advice
In case you live in an area with hard water (e.g. water hardness
more than 8 dGH), it is recommended to use a mixture of
50 % tap water and 50 % demineralised water.
Automatic energy saving
90 % of the energy a steam iron uses is used to convert water
into steam. This steam iron with innovative mechanism
in the handle makes sure that you still get high steam
performance, but with optimal use of energy.
The automatic energy saving technology is such that
- when you put the iron down on the garment and press the
handle gently (which you normally do during ironing!), it
steams at full power.
- when you lift the iron, the steaming reduces to a minimum.
Steam Glide soleplate
This specially treated soleplate is designed with 2 distinctly
different types of steam vents:
- Large vents for maximum crease removal
- Fine vents for best glide
Double active anti-calc system
Anti-calc cassette inside water tank & calc cleaning feature
provide double protection against scale build-up.
Calc clean is integrated with steam control.
