3. Thermostat indicator light

water with store-bought distilled or demineralised water in the following proportions:

-50% untreated tap water,

Important: Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation.

The types of water listed below may contain organic waste, mineral or chemical elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, batteries, air conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled water. Also use distilled or demineralised water only as advised above.

USE

During use or while unit is heating or cooling, do not rest appliance on its head. Place product on its side on a stable, heat resistant, flat surface, as the head will be hot. As the appliance heats, the housing becomes warm. This is normal.

• Once the appliance is plugged in, the light is on - fig.8.
  • After approximately 50 seconds, and when the light is off, it has reached working temperature.
• To begin steaming, press by successive pressures the steam trigger with the steam brush facing away from you, holding it in vertical position - fig.9.

Steaming clothes

Before removing or attaching the fabric brush, unplug your appliance and let it cool down.

The Ultra Steam is equipped with a fabric brush.

- Simply pull on the top of the fabric brush to remove it - fig.11b. You can operate the unit with or without the accessory.

- Hang the creased article of clothing on a clothes hanger

- Pull the clothing tight with one hand. Your hand must be far enough from the steam brush to avoid burning it with the steam output. Place the appliance over the creased area, beginning at the top of the garment.

As steam is very hot: never attempt to remove creases from a garment while it is being worn, always hang garments on a clothes hanger. Always keep your hand far from the steam output.

• Gently press the fabric brush against the clothing and move the steam brush down the fabric. Press by successive pressures, every 4 seconds, the steam trigger - fig.9.
• The combination of steam and brush will gently remove the creases.
  • After treatment, let the garment cool down on the hanger before wearing.

Lint pad

The lint pad can not be used when attached to appliance.

Threads, lint and hair can easily be removed with the lint pad by brushing the clothes slowly from left to right. The pad can be cleaned by brushing in the opposite direction right to left on a piece of old cloth.

• Remove the lint pad from the steam brush by pulling it to the bottom - fig.10a.
• For storage, attach the lint pad to the steam brush. Gently push the top of the lint pad into place until it snaps in - fig.10b.

After use

Wait for 15 minutes until the steam head is completely cool

- Unplug the appliance. Empty the water remaining in the tank and leave unit on its side to cool. After the appliance has cooled down, it may be stored thanks to the hanger hook.

Warning: never forget to unplug the steam brush and empty the tank after your working session. While not in use, you can hang your steambrush by its hook.

Cleaning/Descaling

• Clean the main unit with a damp cloth.
• Your steam brush must be descaled occasionally if you notice the steam power is weak.

The time between descaling operations depends on the quality of the water and the frequency with which you use the appliance.

• To carry out an effective descaling operation, we advise you to :

1. Fill the water tank with white vinegar.
2. Plug the appliance and wait until it reaches the working temperature.
3. Above a sink, press the steam trigger. Wait for a few seconds. Press again the steam trigger.
4. Repeat the previous steps until the water tank is empty. The scale will be removed. Stay away from the steam output: there is a risk of particles spitting.
5. Important: It is necessary to clean the appliance to avoid spattering your clothes with vinegar residue. It is important to clean the water tank with water, then, to fill it again with fresh water.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the water tank is completely empty.
7. Unplug the steam brush. Wait 15 minutes until it is completely cool. Use a rag to wipe the scale marks that may appear on the steam head during descaling operation.
