Steam production consumes the most energy. To help minimise
the energy used, follow the advice below:
• Start by ironing the fabrics that require the lowest ironing
temperature. Check the recommended ironing temperature in
the label on the garment.
• Try to iron the fabrics while they are still damp and reduce the
steam setting.
• If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing them, set the
tumble drier on the 'iron dry' programme.
• If the fabrics are damp enough, you can iron without steam.
