IRON

Best Rules for Using a Clothes Iron

1. Check Fabric Labels – Always check the garment tag for recommended ironing temperatures.
2. Use the Right Temperature – Different fabrics require different heat settings:
   
   • Low: Silk, Polyester, Nylon
   • Medium: Wool, Blends
   • High: Cotton, Linen
3. Use Steam for Wrinkles – If your iron has a steam function, use it for tough wrinkles. For delicate fabrics, use a pressing cloth.
4. Iron Inside Out – This helps prevent shine marks and damage on delicate fabrics.
5. Keep the Soleplate Clean – Regularly clean your iron’s soleplate to avoid staining clothes.
6. Store It Safely – Always unplug and let it cool before storing.
