yFor closet installation, with a door,
minimum ventilation openings in the
top and bottom of the door are required.
Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation
openings are acceptable.
Closet Ventilation Requirements
Closets with doors must have both an upper
and lower vent to prevent heat and moisture
buildup in the closet. One upper vent opening
with a minimum opening of 48 sq. in. (310 cm2)
must be installed no lower than 6 feet above the
floor. One lower vent opening with a minimum
opening of 24 sq. in. (155 cm2) must be installed
no more than one foot above the floor. One
example shown uses vent grilles in the door.
Installation Spacing for Recessed Area or Closet Installation
There should be at least a little space around the Styler (or any other appliance) to avoid contact with

• Fabrics come in a wide variety of weights and finishes and can have different care requirements
for each variety. It is difficult to cover them adequately in this manual. Before using the Styler with
any item, check the care label before proceeding. Do not put items that are not colorfast, are heat-
sensitive, or are not suitable for washing with water in the Refresh or Sanitary cycles. Do a water blot
test on a small, inconspicuous spot (an inside seam) to determine if the fabric is colorfast. For further
assistance, consult the clothing manufacturer, a dry cleaning professional, or a more detailed fabric
care guide.
• Using the Styler with items that are not colorfast may result in damage to the items and staining from
fabric dyes on the interior of the cabinet. These stains will not affect the operation of the Styler. Use
toothpaste to remove stains from interior of cabinet.
• The Styler does not have a washing function. Wash soiled items before use.
