Preparing the laundry

that is to be ironed should have the following levels of residual mois-
ture, depending on the type of ironing being carried out:
PRI 214/217: 15–25 % residual moisture
PRI 210: 15 % residual moisture
The ideal level of residual moisture depends on the fabric's proper-
ties.
Sort the laundry according to type and fabric before starting to iron.
At the same time, please observe the instructions on the laundry care
label. We recommend sorting the laundry in the following order:
Type of material
Nylon and other synthetics
then
Woollens, silks
followed by
Cotton, linen
The ironer must not be used for laundry containing more than 50 %
synthetic fibres (e.g. Dralon).
The high temperature of the ironer will cause the fabric to melt.
Laundry containing less than 50 % synthetic fibres can be ironed at
low temperature (• range).
Starched laundry should always be ironed last.
Otherwise, any remaining starch residue on the heater plate may
have a negative effect when ironing other laundry items.
