Suggestions

Divide the washing according to the correct ironing temperatures. Start by ironing those garments that require a lower temperature. For fuller details, refer to the chart at end of this booklet.

Fabrics such as velvet and wool, and accessories such as gloves, handbags, etc. will regain their brand-new look and texture by simply passing the iron near the surface of the fabric and pressing the steam button.
lmprints left in carpets by furniture can be removed by applying steam on the parts where the pile is crushed and the brushing lightly.
_I f the carpet is made of synthetic material, do not select a high temperature.

How to get a professional ironing finish

A normal iron generates only a small quantity of steam. ln this case it is necessary to products steam constantly in order to eliminate crease in the fabric being ironed.
A professional ironing system works rather differently. The fabric is first made damp by the steam and then, in a second phase, dry-ironed in the normal way. This means that every. Tiniest crease is removed and your garments are ironed to perfection.
ln the first phase (steam-damping of the fabric),hold the ira about 20 cm above the fabric and press the steam(3). Pass the iron over the garment in a circular movement so that the powerful jet of steam damps the fabric. Lightly creased garments require only a few moments of steaming. While very heavy fabrics or garments with particularly difficult creases must be damper, so steam must be applied for a few seconds more.
During the second phase (dry ironing), check that the thermostat knob is in the correct position for the type of fabrics; release the steam button(3) and dry-iron the garment. The special ironing plate will prevent the fabrics from becoming shiny. Using this ironing technique, and following the suggestions in the chart below, you will find it easy to give your garments a really professional ironing finish.
