Practical recommendations:
•
C
lassify the garments into groups by ironing tem-
perature. The appliance heats up quicker than it
cools down. Therefore, to avoid accidents, mini-
mise energy consumption and optimise time. It is
advisable to start off ironing items that require low-
er 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 m
etal
surface and the garment.

ter recommended above, you should periodically
