HOW TO STEAM CONTINUED…
6.Some garments may react better if they are steamed from the inside.
7.Retail clothing stores know the advantage of having a garment steamer on the sales floor, ready for quick touch ups to make the garment look like new again. While you can easily store the G4/G4m when not in use (the water should be drained from the unit if it will be stored for a long period of time) the best way to use the steamer is like the pros. Have it in a convenient spot where you will use it the most frequently. For some people that would be in their laundry room, for others it’s in their bedroom. Because the G4/G4m heats up so quickly (less than one minute) it is the perfect solution to the un- wearable wrinkled blouse or sweater. Plug it in, turn it on, sixty seconds later a few waves of the steam head and you are looking your best… everyday.

4.Remove the cap from the water bottle. Fill the water bottle with regular tap or distilled water; replace the cap and turn invert the bottle, placing
it in the body of the steamer.
5.Always make sure there is water in the bottle. DO NOT ALLOW THE STEAMER TO RUN DRY.
6.Turn the unit on, wait for about sixty seconds for the steam to start.
7.It is a good idea to periodically pour old water out of the steamer to avoid mineral
NOTE: If rinsing the unit does not improve the performance, the steamer
may require more thorough cleaning. This must be done by an authorized service center only, or the warranty will be void.
