BEFORE USESort out the items to be
ironed according to the
type of fabric. This will
minimise the frequency of
temperature adjustment for
different garments.
Note: The steam facility
should only be used on
garments which are
suitable for ironing at the
3 dot and MAX setting.
Textiles and clothes are
supposed to carry ironing
instructions. If they don’t,
you should follow the
fabric guide on page 3, but
be sure to test the
temperature by ironing the
hem of the garment or
similar area first.
If you adjust the
temperature selection
button  down from a hot
setting to a cooler setting,
wait until the iron
temperature has stabilised
before you continue
ironing.
Delicate fabrics such as
silk, wool, velour, etc, are
best ironed with an ironing
cloth to prevent shine
marks.
