After Ironing - Reliable MAVEN 100IS Manual De Instrucciones

SUGGESTIONS
Divide the articles to be ironed according to the types of material: wool with wool,
cotton with cotton, etc... as the iron heats up much more quickly than it cools
down. It is advisable to start with those fabrics that require lower temperatures
and move on to those which require progressively higher temperatures. If the
material is made up of more than one type of fiber, always set the temperature
to the fiber that requires less heat. For example, if the material is made up of
70% synthetics and 30% cotton, set the temperature control to position (•) (see
table) without steam, that is, the temperature for synthetic fabrics. If you do not
know the composition of the article to be ironed, choose a part of the article
that will not be seen. Do a test ironing on this part to establish the appropriate
temperature (always start with a relatively low temperature and work up until
the ideal temperature is reached). Pure (100%) wool articles can be ironed with
the iron set to one of the steam positions. To avoid pure wool, silk and synthetic
materials becoming shiny, iron them on the reverse side. For other materials,
especially velvet, which can become shiny very easily, cover them with a cloth and
iron in one direction only, using light pressure. The iron must be kept constantly
moving over the fabric.

AFTER IRONING

Turn off the boiler by pressing the switch (L). The appliance is still energized when
plugged in and it is possible to eliminate the pressure remaining in the boiler
by pressing the steam button (D). Turn the appliance off by pressing the switch
(O). Remove the power cable from the outlet. Wait for a few minutes to let the
appliance cool down. Very carefully unscrew the cap of the boiler (B) and before
unscrewing it completely wait until any sound of escaping steam has stopped (Fig.
8). Let the iron cool down on its stand, taking care not to touch the power cables
and connection with the hot parts of the appliance. Afterwards empty the boiler
completely to prevent water from stagnating in the boiler, which may form lime
deposits. Place the appliance back on top of a stable surface and out of the reach
of children.
