Choosing the right water
1. This Garment Steamer may be used with normal tap water. However, if the water
of the region in which you live is especially hard, it is recommended to use distilled
water to prolong the life of your garment steamer.
2. Do not use water than has been desalinated with chemicals.
How to use:
1. Make sure the water tank is filled with water.
2. Hang the garment you wish to steam on the unit hanger or on the hanger hook
(model GCSTGS5016 only).
3. Plug it into the appropriate electrical outlet. Make sure cord is unwrapped from
bottom of the unit.
4. Turn the On/Off switch to On “I” (model GCSTGS5011). Turn the On/Off Adjustable
Steam Level Dial to the desired setting (1, 2, 3, or 4) (model GCSTGS5016).
5. Leave the nozzle for about 60 seconds (model GCSTGS5011) or 45 seconds
(model GCSTGS5016) or in its holder until it starts to release steam.
6. Remove nozzle from holder and apply it closely moving it along the areas you wish
to steam.
7. Repeat the process as many times until you achieve the desired result.
8. When you are done, place nozzle back in its holder as illustrated (see the
“ASSEMBLING THE GARMENT STEAMER” section) to ensure it is placed properly
in the rest position.
