IRONING HINTS
Warning! To prevent fire, do not leave Iron unattended while
plugged in.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. When reducing the temperature for iron sensitive fabrics, allow
approximately 2 minutes for the iron to cool to the new temperature
setting.
4. Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen and silk are best ironed with an
ironing cloth to prevent shine marks.
Use low settings for acrylic, silk and synthetics.
Use moderate settings for rayon, wool, and fabrics
with more than 20% rayon or wool.
