Using Your Iron; Dry Ironing; Ironing Temperature - Oster GCSTBV4112 Instruction Manual

• Set the Iron in an upright position.
• Insert the plug into a wall outlet.
• Select the desired temperature on the Temperature Control Dial.
• The Indicator Light will illuminate. Once the selected temperature is reached the light
will go off and you can begin to iron.
• The Indicator Light will illuminate each time the Iron is heating. Once it reaches the
optimal temperature setting the Indicator Light will turn off.
• The light will turn on and off from time to time while you are ironing since the
thermostat automatically maintains the soleplate at the optimal temperature setting.
• If you select a lower temperature after having ironed at a higher temperature, do not
start to Iron again until the Indicator Light goes back on.
NOTE:
• When using the Iron for the first time, test it on apiece of old cloth to be sure that the
soleplate is free of any residue.
• It is possible that the Iron will discharge some smoke during its first usage. This is
completely normal and will stop shortly afterwards.
• Insert the plug into a wall outlet.
• Select the Temperature Control Dial setting most suited to the fabric that is to be
ironed.
• After the Indicator Light goes off, you may start to iron.
• Check the ironing instructions on the label of the item that you wish to iron. Should the
specific ironing instructions not appear on the label, follow instructions indicated in the
Fabric Ironing Table.
• This table is only valid for the fabrics indicated and does not apply to special textiles
such as materials with a gloss finish, etc. Textiles with special coatings (such as gloss,
relief wrinkles, etc.) are best ironed at very low temperatures.
• The Iron heats up faster than it cools down. Therefore, when ironing various types
of fabrics it is best to start with textiles, e.g. synthetics, which require lower ironing
temperatures.
• If the textile consists of several different types of fibers, always select the lowest
temperature for the most delicate composition of fibers (for example, if it consists of
"60% polyester and 40% cotton") you should iron at the temperature
indicated for polyester.
