IRONING TEMPERATURE (cont)
•
Sort the laundry out first: Wool with wool, cotton with cotton, etc. Start ironing
the fabrics requiring the lowest temperature and progress to the higher ones
because the iron heats up quicker than it cools down.
•
If the fabric consists of various kinds of fibres (e.g. cotton with polyester) you
must always select the lowest ironing temperature of those fibres.
