Ironing Temperature; Setting The Temperature - Oster 5002 Instruction Manual

Vertical Steam and Vertical Shot of Steam
The Vertical Steam feature allows your Iron to function as a garment steamer.
TIP: When using the Vertical Steam on clothing, hang the clothing on a clothes hanger
for best results. Hanging curtains and drapes may also be steamed.
To use Vertical Steam:
1. Make sure that the Iron has heated up (2 minutes).
2. Hold the Iron in a vertical position, with the Iron close to but not touching the fabric
you want to steam.
3. With your other hand, pull the fabric tight.
4. Press the SHOT OF STEAM
move the Iron across the wrinkled area.
WARNING: To prevent the risk of burns, keep your hands away from the area being
steamed.
WARNING: DO NOT steam garments while wearing them; this may result in injuries.
• Check the ironing instructions on the label of the item that you wish to iron. Check the
following table for further instructions.
• Should the specific ironing instructions not appear on the label, follow instructions on
the following table. This table is only valid for the 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 the textile consists of
several different types of fibers, always select the lowest temperature, i.e. the
temperature recommended for the most delicate fiber in the composition (for example,
if the composition consists of 60% polyester and 40% cotton, you should iron at the
temperature indicated for polyester).
• Set the Iron in an upright position.
• Connect the Iron to an electrical wall socket.
• Set the Temperature Control Dial (figure 4) to the correct ironing temperature as
indicated in the label or the following table.
