DESCRIPTIONS
(why ant what are the consequences)
The minimum size of items to be automatically Length
Folded is 90cm. Smaller sizes will be systematically
dropped or rejected if ironed in folding mode. Note
that it is highly recommended not to automatically
feed items that are much smaller than the width of the
ironer. See "Size of items in general"
The minimum size for items to be automatically cross
Folded is 110. Smaller sizes will be systematically
rejected to the rear of the FFS ironer.
Thick fabrics may lead to very thick folded items
depending on your choice of folding patern. The maxi-
mum thickness acceptable by the cross folding unit
is 40mm for the second cross fold and 80mm for the
third cross fold.
You can modify this thickness by modulating the
length folding patern and/or cancelling the third cross
fold (on IC44825FFS or IC44832FFS). Please refer to
the programming manual.
Thin and light fabrics (below 80 gr/m²) may cause
disruption in the length folding and not allow optimum
quality of folding. They may also jam. You can iron
them with precaution.
Your ironer is designed to process f atwork only, such
as sheets, duvet covers, pillow cases, table cloths and
napkins. Any other items may cause malfunctions of
your ironer and may void your warranty. If you are
unsure, refer to your nearest Elecrolux Professional
distributor for advise.
Your ironer is not designed for processing the fol-
lowing items :
- Padded covers : they are too thick and of inapro-
priate material
- Terrycloth : it must be tumble dried. Ironing them
will make them very rough.
- Fitted sheets : elastics may deteriorate following
exposure to excessive heat and possibly melt. Depen-
ding on their shape and material, they may be ironed if
fed into the ironer with elastics facing upward so that
they are not in direct contact with the cylinder. In no
case they must be automatically fed as the elastics will
greatly disrupt the feeding. They cannot be automati-
cally folded for the same reason.
- Garments : they are of complex shape (not f at) and
must be ironed with appropriate f nishing equipment.
- Aprons : they are often f at but feature cords and
strings that will jam into moving parts of your ironer.
- Shower curtains : their material will not sustain the
heat and they will melt on the cylinder.
Your ironer is designed to safely process cotton, po-
lyester-cotton and f ax. For any other material, please
refer to your linen supplier and you nearest Electrolux
Professional distributor.
