IRONING TIPS
We recommend using the lowest temperatures with fabrics that have unusual finishes
(sequins, embroidery, flush, etc.).
If the fabric is mixed (e.g. 40% cotton 60% synthetics), set the temperature to the
temperature of the fibre requiring the lower temperature.
If you do not know the composition of the fabric, determine the suitable temperature by
testing on a hidden corner of the garment. Start with a minimum temperature and
increase it gradually until it reaches the ideal temperature.
Never iron areas with traces of perspiration or any other marks. The heat of the plate
fixes the stains on the fabric, making them irremovable.
The size is more effective if you use a dry iron at a moderate temperature, excess heat
scorches it with the risk of forming a yellow mark.
To avoid marking silk, woolen or synthetic garments shiny, iron them inside out.
To avoid marking velvet garments shiny, iron in one direction (following the fibre) and do
not press down on the iron.
The heavier the washing machine is loaded, the more garments come out creased. This
also happens when the spin drying revolutions are very high.
Many fabrics are easier to iron if they are not completely dry. For example, silk should
always be ironed damp.
ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY DISPOSAL
You can help to protect the environment!
Please remember to respect the local regulations: hand in the non-working
electrical equipments to an appropriate waste disposal centre.
