General information about ironing
Always check first whether a label with
ironing instructions is attached to the article
to be ironed.
∙ The meaning of the ironing symbols is
as follows:
•
synthetics
(low temperature)
••
silk and wool
(medium temperature)
••• cotton and linen
(high temperature)
∙ These markings can also be found on
the temperature control knob of the
steam iron in the form of dot symbols.
∙ Laundry to be ironed should be
sorted according to the fabric ironing
temperature. Follow the ironing symbols
and start with the lowest temperature.
∙ When ironing highly sensitive fabrics, or
if you are not sure about the fabrics, you
may carefully test-iron at a non-visible
point, e.g. inside of seam. Start with the
lowest temperature.
∙ If the laundry is being dried in a dryer
before ironing, the temperature should
be adjusted to "iron dry". Very dry fabrics
are difficult to iron.
Start up
Clean the steam iron before using for the
first time, according to the instructions
given in the paragraph Cleaning and care
- Self-cleaning system. This will result in
the removal of possible dust particles from
the soleplate and subsequently lessen
the smell typically encountered when first
switching on.
Please ensure sufficient ventilation.
