Setting the temperature
1 Put the iron on its heel and set the required ironing temperature by
turning the temperature dial to the appropriate position (fig. 5).
Check the laundry care label for the required ironing temperature:
- 1 Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide, polyester)
- 1 Silk

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of,
determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that will not be
visible when you wear or use the article.
ENGLISH

prevent shiny patches. Avoid using the spray function to prevent stains. Start
ironing the articles that require the lowest ironing temperature, such as those
made of synthetic fibres.
2 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
3 When the temperature light has gone out, wait a while before you
start ironing (fig. 6).
The temperature light will go on from time to time during ironing.
