We recommend that you:
•
Start by ironing those items of laundry that require the lowest temperature (e.g.
synthetics). Finish by ironing fabrics which respond best to higher temperatures and
steam—such as cotton and linen.
•
If you iron a fabric made of a blend of fibres set the temperature of your iron to the
most delicate fibre.
•
Never use the burst of steam button on silks or synthetics.
•
When using starch, it should be sprayed onto the reverse side of the fabric and the
soleplate cleaned more frequently.
•
Do not iron over sharp or hard objects such as buttons, studs or zippers as they will
scratch the soleplate of your iron.
Important
Your iron takes time to heat up and cool down. If you change the temperature setting on
your iron, you must give it time to adjust to the new setting.
This is especially important when you change from a high setting to a lower one. It
takes your iron longer to cool down than it does to heat up and this is the reason we
recommend that you begin ironing at lower temperatures.
If you do need to reduce the temperature of your iron, wait until the display light stops
flashing before ironing. This will ensure that your iron has reached the lower temperature
and is not too hot for the fabric being ironed.
