the coolest temperature.
• Silk can be dry ironed on the wrong side.
• Wool, cotton and fine linen fabrics can be steam ironed on the wrong side or alternatively on the
right side with a thin layer of material between the fabric to be ironed and the iron to avoid "shine".
Starched fabrics require a higher humidity. Iron white and light fabrics on the right side and dark
colours on the wrong side. Iron embroidery on the wrong side to make it stand out.
• Linen can be steam ironed, steaming abundantly and ironing dark fabrics only on the wrong side to
avoid "shine". Iron lapels, cuffs and turn-ups on the right side to make them stand out.
• Each time you use the iron (and when you use it for the first time) or if you have not used steam for
several minutes, push the steam button repeatedly. This eliminates cold water from the steam circuit.
