Leaf-Type Roller Padding - Miele MM 50-175 Operating Instructions Manual

Cleaning and care

Leaf-type roller padding

To ensure smooth functioning of the ironer
and high capacity ironing, low maintenance
and long life, the leaf-type padding should
be covered with the specially made roller
cover.
,
Only iron articles up to max. 3mm
thick. Bulky fabrics, protruding buttons,
curtain weights etc. could damage the
leaf-type padding.
After commissioning
It is advisable approx. 40 operating hours
after commissioning to cut back the overlap
of the ironing cover which has occurred
through stretching, to about 50 mm overlap
and then to brush out about 50 mm of this
using a wire brush. This is to avoid damp
streaks and shadowing. The roller cover
must be the same thickness along the whole
length of the roller and fit firmly up to the
heater plate.
Washing the roller cover
Washing will remove any wax deposits and
restore the ironing cover to a softer, more
elastic and absorbent condition. It should,
however, be washed as infrequently as
possible in a Cottons 95°C programme. The
cover should be completely alkali free after
the last rinse.
Do not treat with acidic agents. Do not spin
at too high a speed to avoid the danger of
creasing.
Removing the ironer cloth
