The delicate fabric protector protects delicate fabrics from heat damage

and shiny patches.

With the delicate fabric protector you can iron delicate fabrics (silk, wool

and nylon) at temperature settings 3 to MAX in combination with all

steam functions available on the iron.

The delicate fabric protector reduces the soleplate temperature instantly,

thus allowing you to iron delicate fabrics safely.

If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article is made of,

determine the right ironing temperature by ironing a part that is

not visible when you wear or use the article.
