IRONING TEMPERATURES
WARNING! Always check the label on the article to be ironed for correct ironing instructions!
•Sort the laundry separating different fabric types – wool with wool and cotton with cotton etc. Start ironing the fabrics requiring the lowest temperatures (synthetics) first and progress to a higher temperatures as the iron heats up quicker than it cools. If the fabric to be ironed has various fiber materials (e.g. cotton with polyester), use the lower/lowest ironing temperature.
