The new Philips PerfectCare Azur steam iron offers you an innovative
way to iron garments. We all know the fuss with traditional irons: choosing
the right temperature for tough and delicate fabrics, waiting for the iron
to warm up and cool down to avoid the risk of damaging clothes with
a too hot iron. Those hassles are things of the past with the new Philips
PerfectCare Azur steam iron.
Historically, wrinkle removal was done with a very hot soleplate, then
steam was added to enhance heat transfer and we could iron much faster.
Our research confirmed that the best way to remove wrinkles
effectively is a perfect combination of intense steam and
optimal soleplate temperature. The key to effective wrinkle
removal is the steam, not the soleplate temperature. To get
optimal steam, the soleplate temperature needs to be just
above the steam temperature.
In the past, a large amount of steam at this optimal temperature would
have led to water leakage. We have developed a unique steam chamber
that generates a consistent output of moisture-rich steam that penetrates
deep into the fabric for fast ironing with no risk of water leakage.
- Ironing is now really simple: no temperature adjustment, no scorching,
no waiting for the iron to heat up or cool down. Ironing takes less
time, no matter who does it. With this OptimalTEMP technology, every
single garment can be ironed effectively and safely.
This iron has been approved by The Woolmark Company Pty Ltd for the
ironing of wool-only products, provided that the garments are ironed
according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the
manufacturer of this iron, R1101. In the United Kingdom, Eire, Hong Kong
and India, the Woolmark trademark is a certification trademark.
