of continuous use. See clearly how much water
is left and refill easily under the tap through the

Automatic shut-off
Energy saving
Save energy and get the same great results.
ECO mode reduces your energy consumption
for garments that require less steam.
No burns – guaranteed
waiting for the iron to heat up and cool down.
You're ready for any fabric, any time.
Safety carry lock
Lock your iron securely to the base station for
easy carrying around the house and to reduce
the risk of accidentally touching the hot
soleplate.
Smart descaling
The automatic shut-off function automatically
switches off your steam generator iron if it has
not been used for a few minutes. This saves
energy and gives you peace of mind.
Compact and convenient
The lightweight, compact size is perfect for
storage and fits conveniently on your ironing
board. Exclusive ProVelocity technology
makes our steam generators smaller and more
compact than ever.
Thanks to OptimalTEMP technology, we
guarantee that this iron will never cause burns
to any ironable fabric. You can even leave it
resting face down on your clothes or ironing
board. No burns, no shine. Guaranteed.
No temperature setting needed
Iron everything from silk to jeans without
adjusting the temperature. Thanks to
OptimalTEMP, no dial or settings are needed.
So there's no more pre-sorting the laundry, or
Our built-in descaling system, Smart Calc
Clean, reminds you when you need to descale.
It also includes a container to make descaling
easy. This means no cartridges are required
and there are no additional costs.
SteamGlide soleplate
Our special SteamGlide soleplate smoothly
glides over any fabric. It's also non stick,
scratch resistant and easy to clean.
