DECALCIFICATION
If the appliance begins to produce steam more slowly than usual, if the steamer stops producing steam and then starts again, you may need to decalcify
before using the unit again to steam garments.
BRUSH ATTACHMENT
Your garment steamer includes a brush attachment for extra grooming and care of all your clothes. The brush helps the steam penetrate the fabric by separating the fibers. You can use the steamer to effectively remove wrinkles with or without using the brush attachment. Do not attempt to attach or remove the brush attachment while unit is steaming or hot. Wait until unit is completely cool. Place the brush onto the steamer head by simply pushing the brush onto the front of the steamer head. The wider portion of the brush attachment should be toward the bottom of the unit.
