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. 

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.
