How to use the iron? Before using the iron for the first time, check that the voltage of the iron is the same as the voltage in your home. The steam iron must be emptied of any remaining water after each use. If you can’t pour it clean, you can plug it in and let the steam come out from the soleplate. Otherwise, the water left behind will flow from the soleplate, and the minerals in the water will stain the soleplate when heated next time, which will erode the soleplate after a long time. The iron should not be immersed in water. Steam irons are best kept upright to extend their life. The iron is durable, at least once a month to use the “automatic washing” effect to remove the scale stored in the iron, and to wait for it to dry thoroughly before treasuring it.
1] How to use the iron
①, the use of non-temperature iron, you can turn on the power to iron in the lower temperature conditions. But in the ironing, left and right hand with skilled, not too long, so as not to rapidly increase the temperature of the iron. If you need to iron for a longer time, you should turn off the power after the temperature is right.
In the open power ironing, always pay attention to examine the ironing effect and fabric transformation, rare is the natural fiber fabric and the color of things and breath, a slight change, should immediately cut off the power. To continue ironing found in the temperature is not enough when the power supply again.
In the pad of wet water cloth ironing, the iron due to make moisture into steam, so the temperature drops quickly, even if the power is not off, will also be flooded with signs of insufficient heat. At this point we must slow down the ironing rate, the iron running master can first light after heavy, so that the moisture evaporation diffusion average, the temperature diffusion average.
②, the use of temperature-controlled electric iron, should master the ironing temperature of all kinds of fiber grade, because it is based on the most basic insurance coefficient of fiber development, with this temperature basic ironing clothes. So ironing, most fortunately the fiber ironing temperature on the basis of another grade, if necessary can also be adjusted to a higher grade.
【2】How to master the iron temperature
If the admission of non-temperature regulation of the common electric iron, you can drop water droplets in the heating iron on the soleplate, see the transformation of the water droplets, listen to the sound issued, to determine the approximate temperature of the iron, to determine the suitability for ironing which type of textile clothing.
①, when within 70 ~ 100 ℃, there is no sound of water opening, the shape of the water droplets spread slowly, followed by a gradual bubbling, flooded with the sound of boiling water, and evaporation, the temperature is not suitable for ironing clothes.
②, when in 120 ~ 140 ℃, issued a “snort” sound, water beads immediately spread, and more flood bubbles, and quickly evaporate, this time the temperature is suitable for direct ironing nylon silk clothing, down, nylon blended clothing, acrylic interwoven blended clothing and polypropylene clothing.
③, when in 150 ~ 160 ℃, water drops on the first “chirp” sound, and then the water drops from large to small, rolling on the soleplate. This time the temperature, suitable for direct ironing polyester clothing and wool polyester blended clothing, can also be directly ironed wool clothing, or pad water cloth ironing nylon, acrylic, polypropylene clothing.
④, when in 170 ~ 190 ℃, a “puff” sound, water beads in the iron bouncing and landing. This time the temperature is suitable for ironing smothered silk clothing and cotton fabrics, rayon fabrics, rayon fabrics. Can also pad dry cloth, water cloth ironing woolen clothing and polyester, blended clothing.
⑤, when in 200 ~ 250 ℃, a short crisp “snap” sound, water beads immediately splashed. This temperature is suitable for pad wet water cloth ironing all kinds of woolen clothes, woolen clothing, but do not stay in the water cloth has been ironed dry parts, so as not to water cloth under the part of the flooding “bright”, or make woolen fabric yellow.
The above mentioned temperature is not absolute, there may be a few degrees of difference. About 5 ℃ up and down, the outside of the clothing will not have much impact.
