Use
• Plug in your steamer. Place your steamer on the floor with the steam vents pointing away from the door.
• The steam head should be hung on the door hook while unit is heating up.
• Press on the On / Off switch, the power indicator light will illuminate once steamer is turned on.
• Wait for the steam to come out. It will take
approximately 21/2 minutes.
• Remove the steamer head and place
your garment onto the hanger head.
• Grasp the steam head handle with the steam vents pointing away from you. Start steaming by touching material lightly with steaming head and moving in an up/down vertical motion. Begin at the top of the garment
and move in a downward direction. Steam with hose in an upright position, this allows any condensation to flow back into the steamer.
Tips: Always check fabric labels for recommendations. Test fabric for color fastness in an unobtrusive part of the garment (inner seam). Do not touch silk or velvet with steam head. Some articles can be steamed better from the underside.
If steaming in a low position near floor, straighten hose up and out frequently to clear condensation. If hose becomes clogged, it will make a gurgling noise or the amount of steam will be reduced. You may also experience dripping if the hose becomes clogged. Heavier fabrics may require repeated steaming. Exercise caution at all times.
•During operation, the steamer hose may make a gurgling noise. This is a normal result of condensation. If it begins to gurgle, extend hose up and out to move excess moisture back into the base.
