DECALCIFICATION
If the appliance begins to produce steam
more slowly than usual or stops producing
steam and then starts again, you may need
to decalcify your steamer. Decalcification
refers to removing the calcium deposits
that form over time on the metal parts of
the steamer. For best performance from the
Conair
®
Extreme Steam
decalcify the unit from time to time. The
frequency depends upon the hardness of
your tap water and how often you use the
steamer.
To decalcify, use a solution of 1/3 white vine-
gar and 2/3 water in the water tank. Replace
the water tank in the unit. Plug the unit into
electrical outlet. Turn to the On position and
run until half the amount has steamed (1
liter). Turn the unit to the Off position, unplug
from electrical outlet, and allow to sit for 30
minutes. Remove water tank.
Repeat the above procedure as many
times as necessary until a normal steam
rate returns, usually 2–3 times. With each
repeated cycle, use a fresh solution of vin-
egar and water. Run one cycle of fresh, cold
water without vinegar through the unit at the
completion of decalcification before using
the unit again to steam garments.
