Binatone SI-4040: USEFUL TIPS

USEFUL TIPS

Selection of temperature settings

X Before ironing, we recommend that you orga-

nize your clothes, into the types of material and

the recommended temperature settings.

X We recommend that you start ironing, using the

lower temperature settings first: the appliance gets

hot quicker than it cools down.

X When ironing articles made with combinations of fibers, start

with the temperature recommended for the most delicate ma-

ENGLISH

terial first (for example, to iron a cloth made of cotton and

polyester select the temperature recommended for ironing

polyester first).

X If the manufacturer’s label, which gives the recommended

temperature, is missing and the type of material is known,

follow the recommendations below.

temperature, start with the minimum setting.

Ironing of selected fabrics

X Do not use the water spray button (7) while ironing silk ar-

ticles: drops of water leave spots on silk garments.

X Wool, velour, velvet and similar pile fabrics must be ironed on

the inside.

X To prevent shiny marks we recommend that you iron woolen

articles through a thin cotton cloth, set the steam control knob

into the maximum position.
