IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For best performance, we recommend using distilled, puried or ltered water in your steamer. Tap
water contains minerals that can build up inside your steamer over time and reduce its eciency or
even cause damage.
Never use perfumes, oils or other additives.
Always check the garment’s care label before steaming, and always test fabrics for colourfastness in
an inconspicuous area. Steamers are not recommended for use on leather, suede, vinyl, plastic, or
other materials that are sensitive to steam.
During use the steamer and accessories will become HOT. Never try to t or remove attachments
while still hot.
After preheating, prime the water pump by holding the steam trigger until steam forms.
It is normal to feel or hear the water pump inside the device. It may become louder when the water
level in the tank is low. Check and rell the tank when required.
Small amounts of dripping might occur during use. If excessive, your steamer needs time to get back
up to full temperature. Just allow the steamer a minute to reheat.
Wearing clothes immediately after ironing or steaming can actually create wrinkles. Always allow the
clothing to cool for about 5 minutes before wearing.
LINT ATTACHMENT
Use on garments labelled k l that allow the use of steam.
Tip: The pad on the attachment helps remove lint, hair, and animal fur.
Fitting/Removing (Fig. A)
1. Make sure that the steamer and attachment are cool.
2. Hook the top of the attachment over the top edge of the steamer. Click the bottom edge into place.
Make sure it is fully tted and not loose or it may detach itself during use.
3. Remove the attachment using the tab. When removing the attachment, watch out for condensation
that may have built up during use.
FILLING

2. Pull out the removable water tank (Fig. B)
3. Gently open the rubber cover at the top of the tank.
4. Fill until the water reaches the “MAX” level mark on the side of the tank (Fig. C). Do not overll. Close
the rubber cover securely.
5. Dry o any excess water from the tank then ret it into the base until it clicks.
To rell at any time during use, turn the steamer o by pressing the power button until the blue
indicator light goes out, unplug from outlet, and follow the above procedure.
After relling, allow to reheat for 45 seconds and then prime the pump by holding the steam trigger
until steam forms.
USING
If the label says “do not steam” or shows this icon m, do not steam the garment.

shower curtain rail, or in an open doorway.
