Recommendations:
Fabrics and ironing temperatures:
• Your iron heats up quickly: begin by ironing those fabrics that are ironed at low temperatures, then go on
to those requiring a higher temperature;
• If you turn down the thermostat, wait until the thermostat light comes back on before beginning to iron again.
• When ironing fabrics with mixed fibres, set the ironing temperature for the most delicate of the fibres.
Obtaining more steam for removing wrinkles
- Press the Shot of steam button from time to time (I).
- Wait a few seconds between each shot before pressing the button again.
Vertical steam ironing
(depending on the model)
- Hang up the garment on a hanger and hold the fabric slightly
taut with one hand.
- Set the thermostat control on MAX (J).
- Press the Shot of steam button ( )repeatedly (K), moving
the iron from top to bottom (L).
- Hold the iron a few centimetres from the fabric to avoid
burning delicate fabrics.
