position (Fig. 4).

Tips

- If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of, determine the right ironing

temperature by ironing a part that is not visible when you wear or use the article.

- If the fabric consists of various kinds of bres, always select the temperature required by the most

delicate bre, i.e. the lowest temperature. For example: if a fabric consists of 60% polyester and

40% cotton, it must be ironed at the temperature indicated for polyester ( 1) and without steam.

- Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, i.e. those made of

synthetic materials.

- If you set a lower temperature during ironing, wait until the iron has cooled down to the set

temperature before you continue ironing. To make the iron cool down faster, simply press the

steam trigger or iron a piece of cloth.
