IRONING TEMPERATURE
Check ironing instructions on label of item that you wish to iron. Check temperature
settings table for further instructions.
Should specific ironing instructions not appear on label, follow instructions on
temperature settings table. This table is only valid for fabrics indicated and does not
apply to special textiles with a gloss finish, etc. Textiles with special coatings (such as
gloss, relief wrinkles, etc.) are best ironed at very low temperatures. If textile consists
of several different types of fibers, always select lowest temperature, i.e. temperature
recommended for most delicate fiber in composition (for example, if composition
consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, you should iron at temperature indicated
for polyester).
SETTING TEMPERATURE
1. Set iron in an upright position.
2. Connect iron to an electrical wall socket.
3. Set temperature control dial (Models GCSTCM2001 & GCSTCM2001)/
temperature control up and down buttons (Model GCSTCM2003) (figure 4) to the
correct ironing temperature as indicated on label or temperature settings table.
