The Ironing Result
The ironing result depends on temperature, roller speed of the iron as well as dampness of laundry.
Temperature
Heat makes the laundry easier to form. The higher the temperature the more permanent the result of ironing. The temperature selector is used to set the ironing temperature. The individual temperature range is distinguished by dot symbols. The pilot lamp goes out when the selected temperature is reached.
Roller speed
The roller speed can be adjusted by the roller speed selector. A lower roller speed makes
it much easier when ironing complicated articles such as shirts or articles that are to be ironed folded. Thinner single articles, such as tea towels can be ironed at a higher roller speed.
Perlon/artificial silk 200 degree F
Silk/Wool 300 degree F
Cotton/Linen 400 degree F
Dampness of laundry
When ironing an article with a high degree of dampness, a low speed of the iron is recommended. The article will be dried slowly when passing through the rotary iron. When ironing an article with a low degree of dampness, a high speed of the iron is adequate to receive a good result. Dampening an
item with a spray mister will increase your result. If a Miele tumble dryer is being used, select the program marked “Machine iron”. To minimize preparation time and to redampen, use warm water.
