Check the laundry care label for the fabric type.

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.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric to

prevent shiny patches. To prevent stains, do not use the spray function.

Start ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, such

as those made of synthetic bres.

steam produced is ner than during regular steam ironing. Fine steam

reaches deeper, especially into thick fabrics. This helps you to remove

stubborn creases easily.
