should read the care instructions of the textile before ironing it with the device. Some
fabrics such as leather, suede and velvet may not be ironed!

for ironing and starting with those clothes which require the lowest temperature. Oth-
erwise, wait a few minutes when you switch the device from a higher temperature to
a lower temperature before you continue to iron.

steam ironing, in order to remove moisture from the piece of clothing.
