Pulling into shape and smoothing
out
Pull the dampened laundry into shape
as usual.
Smooth out ribbons, straps, seams and
hems.
Large items such as table cloths, bed
linen etc should be folded lengthways
into a number of pleats so that they can
be ironed as easily as possible.
Sorting
Sort the laundry according to how
much heat is required for ironing. This
way you can start by ironing at a lower
temperature and then gradually
increase the temperature according to
the fabric being ironed.
First iron synthetic fibres such as nylon,
polyester and artificial silk which only
require a low temperature. Then iron
silk, wool, cotton and linen at increasing
temperatures.
Iron starched items last of all to avoid
any starch deposits from affecting the
finish of other items.
Before using the ironer for the first
time:
You may be able to see or feel a 2-3 mm
high ridge along the roller.
This will even itself out after about 3
hours of ironing enabling the under cloth
to settle. It has no effect on the ironing.
Checking the effectiveness of
the finger guard
The finger guard is a safety feature and
should be checked each time before
the ironer is used.
^
With the ironer switched on, press the
foot pedal right down.
– the heater plate comes down onto
the rotating roller.
^
If you now lift the finger guard, the
roller stops rotating and the heater
plate rises up.
This shows that the finger guard is
working.
^
Let go of the finger guard and
remove your foot from the foot pedal.
^
Press the foot pedal right down agan.
– the heater plate lowers and the
roller rotates.
