Ironing Tips
‐
If the article consists of various kind of fiber, always select the temperature required by the most
delicate fiber, i.e. the lowest temperature. If, for example, the fabric consists of 60
％
polyester and 40
％
cotton, it should be ironed at the temperature indicated for polyester
(●●).
‐
If you do not know what kind of fabric(s) the article is made of, determine the right ironing temperature
by ironing a part that will not be visible when you wear or use the article.
‐
Silk, woolen and synthetic materials: Iron the reverse side of the fabric to prevent shiny patches.
‐
Fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches should be ironed in one direction only (along with the nap)
while applying very little pressure.
‐
Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, i.e. those made of synthetic
materials.
- To make the iron cool down faster, simply apply steam or iron a piece of cloth.
USING THE APPLIANCE

The supply hose (K) may become hot during a long ironing session.
The system may occasionally produce a pumping sound during steam ironing. This is normal and

NOTE:
Steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures (higher than ●●).
Press the steam button (F) to start ironing.
Turn the steam dial (H) to adjust the amount of steam.
During steam ironing, the “steam ready
light” goes on from time to time to indicate temperature.
