Elnapress Care

I am very satisfied with my Elnapress. I can iron all kinds of garments without any problem. I own a restaurant and I often let my children help me with the tablecloths (which I have a lot of) because the Elnapress is safe.

Reason 10: Keeps you and your home safe.
Foam Padding and Board Covers
Foam padding flattens after prolonged use, and your pressing results will be unsatisfactory. If the press does not open and close properly or the foam padding begins to hang off the board, replace the foam padding.

The ironing board cover and sleeve board cover may be laundered in warm water (40 degrees) and should also be replaced when they become worn.

Heating Shoe
The heating shoe needs occasional cleaning to remove dry cleaning chemicals, thread fibers and any other residue.

Clean the heating shoe while it is still warm. Turn the press over so the heating shoe faces up. Use one of these methods:
  • Wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth.
  • Wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth soaked in white vinegar. Use table salt as an abrasive if needed. Wipe with a clean cloth to remove all vinegar and salt residue.
  • Iron cleaning sticks are also available. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.


Never use alkaline products, such as oven cleaners. Never use abrasive cleaning products or steel wool pads.

After cleaning the heating shoe, with a lint-free cloth apply a thin protective coating to the hot surface. Leave the press open for about 20 minutes, set at the maximum temperature. Switch off the press. Allow it to cool before locking the handles.
