If you do not know what kind(s) of fabric(s) an article is made of,
determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that will not
be visible when you wear or use the article.
Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric
to prevent shiny patches.
Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature,
such as those made of synthetic fibres.
C
3 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and set both the
steam tank switch and the iron switch to 'on'.The steam tank
and the soleplate will now heat up.
The iron is hot enough when the temperature light goes out.
During steam ironing the temperature light goes on from time to
time.This indicates that the iron is heating up to the right
temperature.
If you have been ironing at a high temperature and subsequently
set the temperature dial to a lower setting, wait until the
temperature light goes on again before you continue ironing.This
will prevent damage to your fabrics.
Tips
- If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, always select the
temperature required by the most delicate fibre, i.e. the lowest
temperature. For example: if an article consists of 60% polyester and
40% cotton, it should be ironed at the temperature indicated for
polyester (1) and without steam.
- When steam ironing woollen fabrics, shiny patches may occur.You
can prevent this by using a dry pressing cloth or by turning the
article inside out and ironing the reverse side.
- Velvet and other fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches should be
ironed in one direction only (along with the nap) while applying very
little pressure.
- Do not use steam when you are ironing coloured silk.This could
cause stains.
