Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity of your ironing board:
- Cleaning the Cover: The fairtrade cotton cover can be removed and cleaned according to its care label. For general cleaning, wipe the cover with a damp cloth.
- Frame Care: Wipe the alloy steel frame with a damp cloth to remove dust or spills. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: When not in use, fold the ironing board and engage the transport lock. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust or damage.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your ironing board, consider the following:
- Instability: Ensure all legs are fully extended and locked into place. Check that the non-slip caps are intact and making full contact with the floor. Uneven flooring can also cause instability.
- Difficulty Folding/Unfolding: Verify that the height adjustment mechanism is fully disengaged before attempting to fold or unfold the board. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the legs from moving freely.
- Warping of Ironing Surface: While rare, prolonged exposure to excessive heat or uneven pressure can affect the ironing surface. Ensure your iron is not left unattended on the board for extended periods.
