Frequently Asked Questions - CeraGlide T22014 Tower

How do I fill the water tank?

Unplug the steamer. Press the tank release button to detach the water tank. Remove the pressure cap at the back, fill with fresh water up to the Max fill line, then replace the cap and slot the tank back until it clicks.

Why is the unit making a loud noise?

The water tank may be running low or there is limescale build-up. Refill the tank or descale the unit as per the cleaning instructions.

Why is there no steam coming out?

This may be due to an airlock if the unit hasn't been used for a while. Press and hold the steam trigger for about 1 minute to push water through the pipe. Also ensure the unit is fully heated and the water tank is not empty.

How do I descale the steamer?

Fill the tank with a mixture of equal parts water and vinegar (white wine vinegar, cider vinegar, or lemon juice). Let it heat up and stand for 30-40 minutes, then empty and rinse thoroughly with water.

Can I use the steamer on all fabrics?

The steamer is suitable for most fabrics. For optimum results, keep a distance of at least 5 cm between the nozzle and the fabric.

What does the flashing red light mean?

The red power indicator flashes while the unit is heating up. It goes out once the water reaches the correct temperature, indicating the steamer is ready for use.

Can I use the steamer without water?

No, operating the steamer without water can damage the unit. Always ensure the water tank is filled before use.

How do I attach the brush accessory?

Line up the hole at the bottom of the brush with the tab under the steam nozzle and push until it locks. Then push the top part of the brush back until it slots into the main body.

What should I do if the unit leaks water?

The unit may not have heated up fully. Allow it to heat until the indicator light goes out before pressing the steam trigger.

How long is the warranty?

The steamer comes with a 1-year guarantee from the date of purchase, extendable to 3 years if you register online at www.towerhousewares.co.uk within 28 days.

5 - Using Your Appliance

Filling the tank with water:

CAUTION! Before filling the tank with water make sure the appliance is unplugged.

1. To use the unit, start by filling up the water tank located at the bottom.

2. To fill up the water tank, first press the tank release button on the side of the unit to detach it from the main body of the steamer.

3. Once the water tank has been detached from the steamer, remove the pressure cap from the filling hole at the back of the water tank. To do this, insert a finger or fingernail into the small space at the top of the water tank cover and pull it firmly away from the main body of the unit. Once the water tank cover has been removed, fill the tank with fresh water. To ensure optimum performance, be careful not to fill the tank above the Max fill line.

Note: It is not necessary to undo the screws at the back of the water tank to fill it. DO NOT loosen any screws or attempt to disassemble the water tank.

1. When the tank has been filled with water, replace the pressure cap and slot the tank back into the main body of the unit until it clicks into place.

2. The steamer is now ready for normal use.

Note: When the water tank is empty or there is a build-up of limescale inside, the unit's operation will become noisier than usual and steam will stop emitting from the steam nozzle. When this occurs, re-fill the water tank or de-scale the unit as detailed in the 'Cleaning and Care' section of this instruction manual.

To start using the garment steamer:

1. Fill the tank with water, as detailed above.
2. Once the tank has been filled and replaced into the main body of the steamer, plug the unit into an active mains socket. The red light-up indicator at the top of the steamer will begin to flash to indicate the unit is powered up and the heat-up process has begun.
3. When the water inside the unit reaches the correct temperature, the red light-up indicator will go out. The steamer is now ready for use.
4. When the steamer is ready, press the trigger at the front of the unit to begin releasing steam. The motor unit will vibrate slightly and steam will start emitting from the front nozzle.

Note: For optimum results, keep a distance of at least 5cm between the steamer and the garment or fabric.

1. The unit will now operate continuously until the trigger is released or the unit is unplugged from the mains.

The Brush Attachment:

1. This appliance is complete with a brush attachment, ideal for use with suits and other similar garments.
2. To attach the brush to the main unit, line up the hole at the bottom of the attachment with the small tab underneath the steam nozzle and push it in until it locks into place.
3. Once the underside of the brush is firmly secured into place, push the top part of the attachment up and back until it slots into place on the main body of the unit.
4. The brush attachment is now ready for normal use.

Note: Ensure the attachment is firmly secured before attempting to use it.
