The Steam Nozzle emits the flow of hot, penetrating steam produced by the Reservoir. The Water Reservoir Cap is designed to safely contain steam inside the Reservoir, while providing easy access to the Reservoir’s fill hole. The Reservoir Level Window permits a clear view of the water level inside the Reservoir, and is marked to indicate the maximum water level for easy filling.
FILLING RESERVOIR 1. Place Handheld Fabric Steamer on a flat, level surface. 2. Make sure power cord is unplugged from electrical outlet. CAUTION: If unit has been in use, allow Reservoir to cool (5 minutes for minimum cooling before removing Water Reservoir Cap and adding water). 3.
FABRIC STEAMING CAUTION: When steaming any material for the first time, it is recommended that you test on a small inconspicuous area before proceeding. Do not use on synthetic fabrics such as 100% nylon or polyester, or other steam-sensitive materials. NOTE: Be sure the Reservoir has already been filled before following these steps.
