C. DRY STEAM V.S. HUMID STEAM:
Because steam is produced in a generator and not in the iron (as with regular household irons)
you can select dry or humid steam. The temperature of the iron setting determines the type of
steam. At high temperatures, the iron delivers very dry steam. Lower temperature settings
(within steam range) offer humid steam.
D. USER BENEFITS:
For best pressing results, you have the flexibility to choose the type of steam and not only the
iron temperature. A balance should be maintained between the humidity (low iron
temperature) required to loosen fibers and the need for heat (higher iron temperature) to
flatten/shape and dry the fibers.
Instructions for specific iron temperature settings should be treated as guidelines only. We
recommend that you experiment with each fabric. The EP8015 can produce humid steam at
relatively low temperature settings where regular household irons would release water. Also,
the very dry steam produced at high iron temperature setting (3 dots “
”) can be used on
some fabrics where normally the use of steam is prohibited.
