OPERATION (How to steam your garment)

The appliance 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 appliance can be easily used in an upright position moving over the fabric in an up and down motion.

NOTE: the appliance is designed to be used in an upright position on hanging garments. Refrain from using the appliance in or on garments in a horizontal position.

1. Check that there is ventilation behind the fabric otherwise moisture may build up causing mildew. Check that the garment pockets are empty and turn-ups such as cuffs and hems are down.

2. 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.

1. Press the steam button. You will feel vibrations and hear a subtle humming sound while steaming; this is normal. Steam facing away from you and in an upright position.

2. Gently press the fabric brush against the garment, moving your arm in an up and down motion targeting creases in the fabric.

3. Press the steam button again to stop the steam.

NOTE: ensure that the fabric to be steamed is being stretched whilst steaming for best results.

WARNING: the appliance generates high temperatures of steam. Do not touch the steam head. Make sure the appliance is facing away from you in an upright position.

1. If using the appliance without the fabric brush, keep a distance of at least 5cm between the steam head and the garment.

To steam curtains

1. Wash and dry curtains as directed, according to the fabric type.
2. Hang the curtains and steam when they are hanging in place.
3. Lightly stretch the curtain with one hand while steaming to help remove creases more easily.

To steam upholstery

1. The appliance can be used to help freshen up upholstery, slip covers on furniture and cushions from furniture. Before steaming, always test on a small area of the fabric that is not visible.
2. Keep the appliance in an upright position and use an up and down motion. Lightly steam over the fabric of your furniture. Cushions should be removed and held upright for steaming. Allow cushions to dry thoroughly before replacing on the furniture.

Note:

• It is recommended that you use the fabric brush attachment when steaming delicate fabrics such as silk. This will minimize the garment steam whilst steaming. For better result when removing stubborn creases, remove the fabric brush attachment from the steam head and continuously steam over the selected area until the creases are removed.
• If the appliance becomes noisy with a loud humming sound and no steam is being generated, check the water level in the water tank. This may indicate that the appliance is out of water and needs to be refilled.

Warning:

• If your garment has metal accessories, be cautious and do not steam directly over the metal as this may discolour the metal.
