Setting the Temperature - Fabric Guide
Read all garment labels when ironing and ensure the manufacturer’s ironing guidelines are followed.
Always check the garment label for ironing instructions before ironing a garment.
If the ironing instructions are missing, see the table below.
Sort your laundry: 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.
NOTE: If the article to be ironed consists of various different fabrics, always select the
temperature required by the most delicate fabric.
