Your iron heats up quickly: so begin by ironing
fabrics that are ironed at low temperatures first,
then go on to those requiring a higher temperature.
When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the
ironing temperature for the most delicate fibre.
Never exceed the water tank MAX level.
Store the cold iron on its heel.
Never use abrasive or aggressive products to clean
the soleplate and the other parts of the iron.
