CAUTION:
• When using the clothes hanger, take care not to pull too
much on the clothes. The unit may tip over.
• Hot steam could escape from small holes in the fabric.
2. Hold the nozzle at the handle and keep the nozzle in the
lower part of the clothes. The steam will rise both the inside
as well as on the outside and will remove wrinkles. Move
the nozzle slowly from the bottom up over the fabric.
NOTE:
Make sure that the steam hose is not kinked.
3. Remove the nozzle from the fabric and smooth it by hand.
4. Repeat the steps 2 and 3 until all wrinkles have been
removed.
5. For horizontal application, hold the nozzle at a distance of
approximately 10 cm above the fabric.
6. To remove wrinkles on towels, handkerchiefs, or napkins,
hang them over a rod or a towel holder and smooth them
gently.
7. Heavy fabrics require repeated steaming.
8. To eliminate larger wrinkles, treat both sides of the fabric
with steam.
9. The brush attachment can also be used to remove larger
wrinkles.
When you have finished
1. Set the On/Off switch to “OFF”. The pilot light in the switch
goes out.
2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Wrap the steam hose once around the telescopic tube and
set the nozzle into the holder.
4. Loosen the two upper clamps of the telescopic tube and
collapse the telescopic tube.
5. Roll the unit to a suitable storage place.
Cleaning
WARNING:
• Always remove the mains lead before cleaning!
• Wait until the machine has cooled down completely!
• Under no circumstances should you immerse the device
in water for cleaning purposes. Otherwise this might result
in an electric shock or fire.
CAUTION:
• Do not use a wire brush or any abrasive items.
• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Clean the casing with a slightly damp cloth.
Preparing for long-term storage
We recommend performing the following steps once a week.
When distilled water is used, cleaning is not required as often
and the life of the unit increases.
1. Disconnect the steam hose and the telescopic tube.
2. Place the unit over a drain.
3. Remove the water tank and empty it. Rinse the tank with
fresh water and empty it completely.
4. Empty the unit completely. Either remove the drain plug or
pour the water out of the unit.
5. To rinse the unit, fill fresh water into the water inlet and the
hose connection and empty the unit completely.
6. Replace the tank on the unit.
7. Install the steam hose and the telescopic tube.
8. Wrap the steam hose once around the telescopic rod and
set the nozzle into the holder.
9. Loosen the two upper clamps of the telescopic tube and
collapse the telescopic tube.
10. Roll the unit to a suitable storage place.
Descaling
A common problem with steam appliances are lime deposits
when hard water is used. Lime residue in the internal lines and
the heater can lead to intermittent steam discharge or in some
cases to a complete stop of steam output.
NOTE:
To reduce or prevent lime deposits, we recommend the use
of distilled water.
If you cannot use distilled water, we recommend that you
perform descaling once a month. Proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the steam hose and the telescopic tube.
2. Place the unit over a drain.
3. Remove the water tank and empty it. Rinse the tank with
fresh water and empty it completely.
4. Empty the unit completely. Either remove the drain plug or
pour the water out of the unit.
5. To rinse the unit, fill fresh water into the water inlet and the
hose connection and empty the unit completely.
6. Prepare a solution with 50 % vinegar and 50 % water. In
most cases, 2 cups of this solution will be sufficient.
7. Pour this solution slowly into the
tube connection of the unit
(Fig. F), until the water tank of
the unit is about half full.
8. If the filled-in solution does not
become visible in the inlet of
the unit, fill the hose connection
completely. Additionally, pour
solution into the water inlet, until the water tank of the unit is
about half full.
9. Let the solution at for 40 minutes.
10. Empty the unit completely.
11. Rinse the hose connection as well as the water tank with
fresh water, until all vinegar residue has been removed.
12. Connect the steam hose and the telescopic tube.
