Optimal Temp Technology
The Optimal Temp Technology enables you to iron all types of ironable fabrics, in any order,
without adjusting the iron temperature setting.
Fabrics with these symbols are ironable, for example linen, cotton, polyester, silk, wool, viscose
and rayon (Fig. 6).
Fabrics with this symbol are not ironable. These fabrics include synthetic fabrics such as Spandex
or elastane, Spandex-mixed fabrics and polyolens (e.g. polypropylene), but also prints on
garments (Fig. 7).
