A cool iron setting is often around 275 degrees Fahrenheit, and the hottest setting is typically 445 degrees Fahrenheit. To avoid damaging synthetic or delicate textiles such as acrylic and nylon, the iron should be set to a low setting.
Acetate and silk are also textiles that should be ironed on a low setting. Find the temperature knob on the front of the iron to adjust the temperature to low. Turn the knob to 1 or 2 for the coolest temperatures if it has a numeric scale to indicate temperature settings. Some irons also indicate which fabrics are appropriate for each setting.
