Braun Steam Generator Station Iron - IS2565BL

While the iron is suitable for tap water, using distilled water is not recommended as it may affect the heating element and calcification process. If your tap water is very hard, consider using a 50/50 mix of tap water and de-mineralized water.

The frequency of descaling depends on your water hardness and usage. The iron has an automatic anti-calc system and a calc-clean indicator. Follow the instructions in the user manual when prompted by the indicator light.

The 'shot of steam' or steam boost function provides a powerful burst of steam (430g/min for this model) to tackle stubborn creases and is ideal for vertical steaming.

Yes, the Braun IS2565BL features a 1.5L detachable water tank, making it easy to refill and empty.
