‘OptimalTemp’ mode.

on. The light in the ECO button goes on.
2 To go back to the ‘OptimalTemp’ mode, press the ECO

ironing tips
Minimising wrinkles while drying
Start wrinkle removal early in the drying process by
spreading out your laundry properly after washing and by
putting garments on hangers to make them dry naturally with
fewer wrinkles.
Best practice shirt ironing
Start with the time-consuming parts like collar, cuff links and
sleeves. Next, iron the bigger parts like front and back to
prevent wrinkling the bigger parts when you are busy ironing
the time-consuming parts.
Collar:
When you iron a collar, start on its underside and
work from the outside (the pointy end) inwards. Turn over
and repeat. Fold down the collar and press the edge for a
more crisp finish.
Buttons:
Iron on the reverse side of the buttons for more
effective and faster ironing.
