Selecting the ironing
temperature

Always read garment labels and follow
the manufacturer’s ironing instructions.
Refer to the Ironing Chart on page 15
for temperature recommendations.
Hints
• Sort articles to be ironed according to
the type of fabric. This will reduce the
need to adjust the temperature to suit
varying garments.
• Start with garments requiring lower
temperatures and work your way
through to items requiring higher tem-
peratures.
• Fabrics such as velour, wool, linen and
silk are best ironed with an ironing
cloth to prevent shine marks.
• If you are unsure of the fabric content
of a garment, test a small area such as
a seam or inside hem section before
ironing a visible area. Start with a low
temperature and gradually increase the
heat to find the best setting for ironing
the garment.
• When reducing the temperature to iron
sensitive fabrics, allow approximately
2 minutes for the steam iron to cool to
the new setting.
• Pure woollen fabrics (100 % wool) can
be steam ironed with the temperature
dial set to Wool. Use an ironing cloth
to prevent shine marks on the fabric.
• Never iron areas of a garment where
perspiration marks are visible, as the
heat of the steam iron will fix the
stains, making them permanent.
