Ironing Tips - Sunbeam STEAM MASTER LX Manual De Instrucciones

• Always read garment labels and follow the manufacturer's ironing instructions.
• Sort the articles to be ironed according to the type of fabric.
• Garments requiring low temperature and steam should be ironed first to avoid damaging
garments with a too-hot iron.
• If you are unsure of the fabric content of the garment, test a small area such as a seam or facing
before ironing a visible area. Start with a low temperature and gradually increase the heat to
find the best setting.
• When changing the temperature from a high setting to a low setting, allow approximately
5 minutes for the lower temperature to be reached.
• When steam ironing, use long slow glides. This will allow the steam to penetrate the fabric while
it allows the heat of the soleplate to dry out the moisture.
• To iron linens, turn garment inside out. Be careful not to use a too-hot iron as lining may melt or
stick to soleplate.
• To iron zippers, use an ironing cloth or make sure the zipper is closed and iron over the flap.
Never iron directly over an unprotected zipper.
• Use the following chart to select the best setting and method for the fabric you plan to iron.
