• Grasp the steam head with the steam vents pointing away from you.
• Start steaming by brushing material lightly with the grain of the fabric in an up/down vertical motion.
• The vertical support panel helps keep the garment in place while steaming.
• Start at the top the garment and gradually move downward. Always steam in a vertical
position.
• Always be careful not to touch the hot steam.
• Always hang the steam head in an upright position on the hook when not in use.
• 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 any build-up of 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. To limit condensation, do not press the steam head too
heavily on the Roll and Press panel.
• 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 shirt collars to prevent them from slipping on the hanger during
steaming (fig. 17).
• When steaming a shirt, begin with steaming the sleeves. Get hold of one sleeve
and cross it over the garment using the Roll & Press for vertical support (fig. 17).
• To steam the back of the shirt, lift up the shirt by the shoulders and turn it around
the hanger (fig. 19).
• To put crisp edges on trousers and shirts, press the steam head (without any
accessory) against the fabric and the vertical support.
• Gently press the steamer brush into fabric while making slow passes.
• Avoid contact between the steam head and silk or velvet.
• Certain 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 pipe 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.
• Be careful at all times.
