HINTS & TIPS
• Some articles of clothing are better to be steamed inside out.
• Pants can be steamed holding them by the cu, however extra care
must be taken.
• When steaming, touch material lightly with steam nozzle or brush
attachment and move up and down to remove wrinkles. It is
important that you make contact with the garment and/or fabric.
• NOTE: The Garment Steamer will not remove stains from garments.
• Never steam clothes while wearing them.
• The Garment Steamer works on a variety of fabrics, including silk,
denim, cotton, polyester and wool.
• PLEASE ALWAYS REFER TO LABEL ON ITEM OF CLOTHING
TO CHECK IF GARMENT CAN BE STEAMED. IN GENERAL,
SOME FABRICS, E.G., LEATHER, SUEDE AND VELVET ARE NOT
SUITABLE FOR STEAMING.
• TO ENSURE YOUR GARMENT IS SUITABLE FOR STEAMING,
ALWAYS TEST A SMALL PATCH ON THE INSIDE OF THE
GARMENT TO CHECK IT DOES NOT DAMAGE THE FABRIC.
TEMPERATURE GUIDE
Max Steaming: 120°C - 165°C

Your Garment Steamer should be periodically descaled as the
mineral deposits in tap water may form scale or residue inside of the
unit causing it to operate less eciently. To reduce or eliminate the
occurrence of mineral deposits, we recommend the use of distilled
water in the unit.
Alternatively, if not using distilled water, please follow the below
process monthly, for best results.
1. Ensure the unit is disconnected from the power outlet and
completely cooled down.
2. Prepare a mixed solution of 50% vinegar and 50% water. 60ml of
this solution is enough.
3. Remove the water tank and slowly pour the mixed solution into it
and replace water inlet cover
4. Let sit for 40 minutes.
5. Wipe the external housing using the soft damp cloth.
6. Pour out the vinegar solution, and ll the water tank with clean water
and rinse / repeat until the vinegar smell has dissipated. Repeat this
step until the vinegar odour disappears.
Other than the above descaling procedure, never use any other
additives in the water of this Garment Steamer.
Use of distilled or de-mineralized water will reduce the need to clean
your Garment Steamer and will prolong its life. However, ordinary tap
water may be used as well.
Additives such as cleaning agents, detergents, salt, perfumes and dyes
should never be added to the water tank. Some of these substances
are highly ammable which could result in bodily harm or death and
some additives will corrode or clog internal parts.
Clean the main unit with a soft damp cloth if necessary. A little bit of
neutral detergent can be used for any stubborn marks.
