• During use, the hose may make a gurgling noise. This is a normal occurrence due to condensation. If the appliance begins to gurgle, rest the steam head on its support for a few moments in order to direct the condensation into the appliance once again.

• During use, some water drips may appear on the telescopic pole. This is also a normal occurrence due to condensation. Steam setting* Your appliance is fitted with 2 to 5 steam settings that you can set according to the fabric you are steaming, from delicate to thick ones.

• Models with 2 settings: set by successively pressing the steam setting button on the appliance's control panel.

• Models with 3 settings: set by pressing on one of the buttons on the appliance's control panel.

• Models with 4 or 5 settings in the steam handle: set by successively pressing on the "SET" button located on the steam handle. The light indicators will show the steam level selected. Empty tank detector* This appliance is equipped with an empty tank detector. When the water tank is empty, the light indicator on the appliance's control panel will blink to alert you to fill the water tank. Turn off the appliance and fill the water tank. Electronic auto off* Your appliance is fitted with an “auto-off” system which places it on standby once the water tank has been empty for more than 10 minutes.

• The "Auto off" indicator on the control panel flashes slowly to indicate that the appliance is on standby.

• To reactivate the appliance: fill the water tank and select the desired steam level on Tips for better results with your garment steamer

• We recommend checking the garment care label for manufacturer recommendations before steaming. We also recommend testing the garment and effect on the garment on an unobtrusive area such as an inner seam.

• Button up the shirt’s collar to prevent them slipping on the hanger during steaming (fig.14).

• Gently press steamer brush into fabric while making slow passes.

• Avoid direct contact between the steam head and silk or velvet.

• Some garments are smoothed more easily on the reverse side.

• Heavy fabrics may need to be steamed for longer.

• If you are using the steam head at a position close to the ground, raise the hose frequently in order to avoid the formation of condensation. A gurgling noise may be heard if the flexible hose is pinched.

• If no steam is produced, if a gurgling sound is heard or if water is dripping through the holes of the steam head, raise the steam hose occasionally to remove condensation inside the hose.

• The Press & Steam vertical support helps keep the garment in place while steaming.

• When steaming a shirt, begin with steaming the sleeves. Get hold of one sleeve and cross it over the garment using the Press & Steam for vertical support. 2 • Fabric brush* The fabric brush opens the weave of the fabrics for better steam penetration.

• Attach the fabric brush to the steam head by lining up the bottom of the brush with the bottom of the steam head. Gently push the top of the brush onto the steam head until it clicks into place. (fig. 22)

• Gently brush the area to be steamed following the grain or nap of the fabric. (fig. 23)

• Remove the fabric brush once unit is unplugged and completely cool. Remove it by pressing on the release tab on top of brush while pulling it forward. 3 • Lint pad* The lint pad removes hair, lint and animal fur for a professional finish. ACCESSORIES Be sure the unit is unplugged and completely cool before attaching accessories. Before using an accessory, check the manufacturer recommendations. It is also recommended that you carry out a test on part of the fabric which cannot be seen. The Press & Steam system set in the hanger provides a vertical support while steaming, to help remove "creases" more easily and efficiently. The lint pad is a separate accessory and cannot be attached to the steam head.You can use the lint pad independently from the steamer.

• To use the lint pad, slowly brush the clothing with the grain or nap of the fabric. (fig. 25)

• The pad can be cleaned by brushing it in the opposite direction. We recommend cleaning the pad on an old cloth that can be discarded.

• Clean the main unit with a damp cloth.

• Clean the Press & Steam fabric with a damp cloth or non abrasive sponge. Do not use any cleaning products such as soap or detergents. Easy descaling

• To maintain maximum performance, your steamer must be descaled. The time between descaling operations depends on the appliance use. The appliance must be descaled at least once a year or after 30 hours of use.

• For models with "Anti calc" indicator*: - To extend the life of your appliance and prevent the scaling, your appliance is fitted with an orange "Anti-calc” light that flashes on the control panel when you need to drain the appliance. - If the orange “Anti-calc” warning light flashes, you can continue steaming normally but remember to rinse the boiler before you use it again.

• To carry out a descaling operation, follow these steps: - Ensure that the appliance has cooled down completely (2 hours minimum). - Separate the appliance from the base, using the base unlocking button. - Remove the steam head from the steam head hook. Remove also the electrical cord from the electrical cord hook. - Take out the water tank (fig. 33). - Place the appliance flat on the edge of your sink. - Fill ½ litre of fresh water directly in the water inlet location located on the appliance, allowing water to fill the boiler (fig. 34). Pay attention not to overflow. - Unscrew the "Anti calc" cap by turning it anti clockwise (fig. 35). - Holding the appliance in a tilted position, help the scale particles to flow out with the water by soft movements (fig. 36). - Insert the "Anti calc" cap and screw it back. - Repeat above procedure as many times as needed to remove all the scale particles. - For models with "Anti calc" indicator*: the next time you use your garment steamer, press the "Anti calc" button for 5 sec on the control panel to turn off the indicator. CAUTION: Do not attempt to lift up or transport the appliance holding the integrated hanger. Always make sure the appliance and the pole are firmly fixed to the base before lifting up the appliance (see assembly instructions). Do not use any descaling substances (vinegar, industrial descaling products, etc.) when rinsing the appliance: they could damage it. Before emptying your appliance, it must always be left to cool for 2 hours to avoid any risks of scalding.

Warning: Never try to separate the hose from the appliance.

Make sure to avoid any shock on the steam head during descaling operation.

• Do not fill the boiler by the steam head holes or by the "Anti calc" draining outlet!

• Never immerse the steam head in water or any other liquid! TROUBLESHOOTING The steam flow is low. Your steamer has a build- up of scale because it has not been rinsed out regularly. See descaling process. The hose has been obstructed. Check that the hose is not bent or twisted. Water runs through the holes of the steam head. There is condensation in the hose.
