Ironing Guide

• check garment labels and follow recommended ironing settings:
  • synthetic fabrics – lowest heat setting
  • silk, wool – medium setting
  • cotton, linen – highest setting
• start with fabrics that require lower temperatures and progress to higher-temperature fabrics.
• for delicate fabrics, test on a hidden area first.
• slightly damp fabrics are easier to iron; very dry fabrics may require light dampening.
• always rest the iron on its heel when not in use.

Using Your Iron

1. place the iron upright on its heel rest.
2. connect to the power supply.
3. set the temperature selector according to the fabric type.
4. when the pilot light switches off (and cycles on/off during use), the iron is ready.
5. if lowering the temperature after high-heat use, wait until the pilot light turns on before resuming.
6. switch off and unplug after use.

• never immerse in water or liquids.
• wipe the body with a soft, dry cloth.

Sole Plate Care:
