Water advice

If the tap water in your area is very hard, it is advisable to mix 
the tap water with an equal amount of demineralised water.

Easy to rinse

The new design of the rinse cap makes it very easy to rinse 
the boiler regularly.  Simply unscrew the cap and pour out the 
“dirty” water into the sink.
No hassle with coins, extra tubes or anything of this sort.

Fixed water tank

The fi xed water tank that is incorporated into the stand allows 
re-fi lling anytime during ironing.  Since water is not re-fi lled 
directly into the boiler, there is no waiting time for boiler to 
cool down.
