Varied ironing speed and fabric dampness might cause optimal setting to differ from that recommended in the
table.
Tips: Always start ironing the fabrics that require low ironing temperature setting, and then increase the
temperature setting for fabrics which require higher temperature. The iron heats up faster than it cools down.
