Ironing Tips
• Always check fabric content before
ironing. If the fabric is a blend, use
the lower temperature setting.
• If the fabric content is unknown, use
the lowest temperature setting and test
on an inside seam of the garment.
• If ironing several items, start ironing
the items which need the lowest
temperature setting first. An iron heats
up much faster than it cools down.
• To maintain the quality of the
soleplate, never iron over zippers,
pins, buttons, or anything metal.
• Use caution when ironing around
plastic buttons and zippers as these
may melt.
