How to use

Fill the water tank according to the maximum level indicated, place the steamer on a stable surface and plug into a suitable mains outlet. Allow the unit to heat up until steam is produced; then hang the garment on the built-in hanger or a separate rail. Hold the steamer head a short distance from the fabric and move it vertically to let the continuous steam relax fibres and remove wrinkles. For delicate materials, keep a slightly greater distance and test on a small inconspicuous area first. After use, switch off, unplug and allow the appliance to cool before emptying the water tank and storing.

Recommendations

Use distilled or demineralized water if local tap water is hard to reduce mineral build-up. For best results, steam garments hanging freely and avoid pressing the steamer head directly against heavy embellishments. Regularly follow descaling instructions from the manufacturer to maintain steam performance and prolong appliance life.
