body. Do not direct steam towards the body when ironing.
After ironing
⚫After use, rotate the temperature dial to OFF position and disconnect the iron from the mains power outlet.
⚫Let the iron cool down and empty the water tank to prevent built up of any residue in the water tank.

pad to clean the soleplate, and never place the iron on a rough surface.
⚫To remove synthetic residue from the soleplate, iron over an old cotton rag in high setting.
⚫Always store the emptied iron horizontally on a stable surface with a cloth protecting the soleplate.

IRONING TIPS
IMPORTANT! always check whether a label with ironing instructions is attached to the garment. Always follow the
ironing instructions attached to the garment.
⚫The iron heats up quicker than it cools down, therefore, you should start ironing the articles first requiring the
lowest temperature such as those made of synthetic fibre.
⚫If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres, you must always select the lowest ironing temperature to iron
the composition of those fibres.
⚫Silk and other fabrics that are likely to become shiny should always be ironed on the inner side.
⚫To prevent staining, do not spray water straight on silk or other delicate fabrics.
⚫Velvet and other textures that rapidly become shiny should be ironed in one direction with light pressure
applied. Always keep the iron moving at all times.
⚫Pure wool fabrics (100% wool) may be ironed with the iron set to steam position. Preferably set steam button
to the maximum position and use a dry cloth between the garment and the iron for protection.
⚫Do not touch plastic buttons on the garment with a hot iron because they may melt.
⚫Be careful around zippers and similar items to prevent the soleplate from scratching.
