3. SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
Always check first to see whether ironing instructions are attached to the article
Ÿ
to be ironed (they can be found on a label showing a drawing of an iron. The
numbers of dots indicate the correct temperature. Refer to the indications on
the temperature dial and in the table below). Follow these ironing instructions in
all cases.
If ironing instructions are missing but you do know the kind of fabric, then see the
Ÿ
below. The chart is valid for the actual materials and do not concern any applied
finish, gloss etc.
Textile to which some kind of finish has been applied (gloss, wrinkle relief etc.)
Ÿ
can best be ironed on somewhat lower temperatures.
Sort the fabrics out according to ironing temperature first: wool with wool,
Ÿ
cotton with cotton, etc. The iron heats up quicker than it cool downs. Therefore,
start ironing the articles requiring the lowest temperature such as those made
of synthetic fibres. Then progress to higher ones.
Turn the temperature control knob round until it is opposite the setting pointer.

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.
