PREPARATION

Sort the linens to be ironed according to the international symbols on the garment label, or if this is missing,
according to the type of fabric.
You can eliminate the risk of scorching fabrics and reduce waiting time by starting to iron items that need a
lower temperature (the iron takes less time to heat up than to cool down).
synthetic, acrylic, nylon, polyester: low temperatures;
silk, wool: medium temperatures;
cotton, linen: high temperatures;
fabric not to be ironed.

ADVICE FOR GOOD IRONING

We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have unusual finishes (sequins, embroidery,
flush, etc.). If the fabric is blended (e.g. 40% cotton, 60% synthetics), set the knob to the temperature of the
fibre requiring the lowest temperature.
If you do not know the composition of the fabric, test the temperature on a hidden corner of the garment. Start
with a low temperature and increase it gradually until it reaches the ideal temperature.
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or other marks: the heat of the plate fixes the stains on the fabric,
making them irremovable. Starch is more effective if you use the dry iron at a moderate temperature: excess
heat scorches it with the risk of forming a yellow mark. To avoid making silk, woollen or synthetic garments
shiny, iron them inside out. To avoid making velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following the fibre)
and do not press down on the iron. The more loaded the washing machine, the more creased the garments.
