Tips for ironing
7
Prior to ironing, always check the garment
label to ensure the correct temperature is set
on the iron.
7
Since the iron heats up much quicker than
it cools down, synthetic textiles, silk or
similar fabrics should be ironed using lower
temperature settings first.
7
If the garment is made of combined types
of fabric, always begin with the lowest
temperature setting first.
7
Silk and other textiles that tend to shine should
be ironed inside out. Velvet and other types
of fabric that shine should be ironed with very
little pressure and only in one direction. Always
keep moving the iron while ironing.
7
Do not use the steam function when ironing
coloured silk. This could cause stains.
7
Garments made of 100% pure wool can be
ironed using steam. Set the temperature control
dial preferably to the MAX setting and lay a
dry towel between the garment and the iron.
7
Ironing wool garments can cause them to
'shine'. It is therefore recommended to iron
such garments inside out.
Caution
7
Never iron on metal parts, such as zippers,
rivets, or metal buttons as they could damage
the soleplate. Always iron around these metal
parts.
