If you do not know what kind(s) of fabric(s) an 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, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric

to prevent shiny patches. Avoid using the spray function to prevent

stains.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature,

such as those made of synthetic fibres.

the iron in vertical position.

This is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.

Drip stop

This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically

stops producing steam when the temperature is too low to prevent

water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens you may

hear a sound.

soleplate has dropped below the set ironing temperature, the amber

temperature pilot light goes on.
