Assembling/operating your garment steamer
1. Press the water tank release button, pull out the water tank, open the water inlet cover
and fill tap water into the water tank until it reaches the MAXIMUM level. Always ensure the
water tank is at least a third full. Do not exceed the MAXIMUM level when filling the water
tank. Put back the water tank. In case of particularly calcareous tap water, use a mixture
composed of 50% tap water and 50% demineralized water.
2. Hold the appliance with your hand positioned safely at the neck of the garment steamer.
In an upright position, use your other hand to attach the fabric brush onto the steam head.
The fabric brush can be attached either way and will lock into position with an audible
”click”.
3. Connect the appliance to a power outlet. The light turns on and the appliance begins
heating. Wait until the light turn off (approximately 30 seconds). You can start using.
How to steam your garment
The garment steamer is easy to use and is perfect for removing wrinkles/creases from
garments and curtains as well as refreshing furnishing fabrics.
It can be used on most fabrics as long as the fabric is hanging or where the garment
steamer can be easily used in an upright position moving over the fabric in an up and down
motion.
NOTE: the garment steamer is designed to be used in an upright position on hanging
garments. Refrain from using the steamer in or on garments in a horizontal position.
1. Check that there is ventilation behind the fabric otherwise moisture may build up causing
mildew.
2. Check garment pockets are empty and turn-ups such as cuffs and hems are down.
3. Hang the garment from a hanger and stretch the fabric slightly with one hand checking
that there is nothing behind the fabric that can be damaged by the steam.
NOTE: we recommend you do not steam over metal accessories. Use caution and steam
around the metal accessories.
4. Press the steam button. You will feel vibrations and hear a subtle humming sound while
steaming; this is normal.
5. Gently press the fabric brush against the garment, moving your arm in an up and down
motion targeting creases in the fabric.
6. Release the steam button to stop the steam.
NOTE: ensure that the fabric to be steamed is being stretched whilst steaming for best
results.
