ADJUSTING THE
TEMPERATURE
•
Read any ironing instructions on the
garment. As a rule, there will be a
pictogram of an iron and a number of
dots. These dots indicate the setting
that should be selected on the iron
(see table below).
•
If there are no ironing instructions
on the garment, but you know what
fabric it is made of, the table below
can be used. The table only applies
to the relevant material and is for
guidance only.

Do not iron
•
Garments with printed and sewn-
on features are best ironed on
the reverse of the material at low
temperature.
•
For fabrics made of several different
materials, you should always adjust
the temperature to suit the material
that can tolerate the least heat. If, for
instance, a product consists of 60%
polyester and 40% cotton, adjust
the temperature of the appliance for
ironing polyester.

•
Sort the items to be ironed according
to the temperature at which they are
to be ironed.

The iron will get hot quicker than it
cools down. Therefore always start
with garments to be ironed at the
lowest temperature.
