Preparing The Laundry; Residual Moisture; Sorting The Laundry - Miele PM 1210 Operating Instructions Manual

Residual moisture

For an excellent finish and optimum ironing performance, 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:
PM 1214, PM 1217: 15–25 % residual moisture
PM 1210: 15 % residual moisture
The ideal level of residual moisture depends on the textile's proper-
ties.

Sorting the laundry

Sort the laundry according to type and fabric before starting to iron.
At the same time, please observe the instructions on the wash care
label. We recommend sorting the laundry in the following order:
Type of material
Nylon and other synthetics
then
Woollens, silks
followed by
Cottons, linens
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.
