Classify the garments into groups by ironing
temperature. The appliance heats up more
quickly than it cools down. Therefore, to avoid
accidents, minimise energy consumption and
optimise time. It is advisable to start off ironing
items that require lower temperatures and
progress to those that need higher
temperatures.
-
Pure wool fabrics (100%) can be ironed with the
iron set to steam. Select a high steam
temperature and place a cotton cloth between
the iron’s metal surface and the garment.
