temperature setting. In this way you will avoid waiting 
for the unit to cool down.
 
2. You may find it desirable to place a press cloth 
between your fabric and Pressing Plate.

setting first and gradually increase until the desired

before placing on the Ironing Board or spray the area 
to be pressed after it is positioned for pressing. (This 
method may also be used for starch.)
 
2. Place a damp press cloth over the area to be 
pressed.
 
In either case, press...
