8. Press spraying water button a couple of times to dampen the laundry

10. The iron has an anti-drip function: if ironing garments for long time,
soleplate temperature will decrease, the iron will stop producing steam
automatically and no water droplets will form from the soleplate.
11. “Steam shot” can also be applied when holding the iron in a vertical
position, so this is useful for removing creases from hung clothes,
curtains, etc.

IRONING TIPS
1. Alwayscheckrstwhetheralabelwithironinginstructionsisattachedto
the article. Follow these ironing instructions in any case.
2. The iron heats up quicker than cooling it down, therefore, you should
start ironing the articles requiring the lowest temperature such as those
madeofsyntheticbre.
3. Ifthefabricconsistsofvariouskindsofbres,youmustalwaysselectthe
lowestironingtemperaturetoironthecompositionofthosebres.
4. Silk and other fabrics that are likely to become shiny should be ironed
on the inner side. To prevent staining do not spray water straight on silk
or other delicate fabrics.
5. Velvet and other textures that rapidly become shiny should be ironed in
one direction with light pressure applied. Always keep the iron moving
at any moment.
6. Pure woolen fabrics (100% wool) may be ironed with the iron set a
steam position. Preferably set steam button to the maximum position and
use a dry cloth as a mat.
Note: when ironing woolen fabrics, shining of the fabric may occur.
So it is suggested that you should turn the article inside out and iron
the reverse side.
