IRONING HINTS
WARNING! To prevent fire, do not
leave iron unattended while
connected.
Sort articles to be ironed according
to the type of fabric. This will reduce
the need to adjust the temperature
for different types of garments.
If you are not sure of the fiber
content of a garment, test a small
area such as a seam or inside hem
section before ironing a visible area.
Start with a low temperature setting
and gradually increase to find the
best setting.
When reducing the temperature to
iron sensitive fabrics, allow
approximately 2 minutes for the iron
to cool to the new temperature
setting.
Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen
and silk are best ironed with an
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
NOTE: Before starting to iron delicate
fabrics, it is best to first test the
temperature of the iron on a hem or an
inside seam.
