mr.steam®Electric Towel Warmers Installation and Operating Instructions
________________________________________________________________
The finish of your MrSteam Towel Warmer
can be protected and maintained by allowing Towel
Warmer to cool to room temperature and occasional wiping
with a dampened cloth and lightly polished thereafter with
a soft dry cloth. Under no circumstances should abrasive
cleaning powders or metal polish be used on any Towel
Warmer.
Do not use in ambient temperatures
below 30°F. If the water in the radiator freezes, it will mal-
function and damage to the radiator may occur. Do not use
in ambient temperatures above 90°F.
The temperature of the unit may vary dur-
ing operation.
This Towel Warmer is intended for
towels washed in water. Fabrics that contain soap or
detergent residue may show what appears to be scorch
marks. However this is simply the discoloration of the
residue. The Towel Warmer unit does not reach suf-
ficient temperature to scorch fabric. We are not respon-
sible for discoloring or damage of any fabrics. As a pre-
caution we recommend you place a towel directly onto
the rail before placing items of clothing.
This picture shows the
recommended method of
draping a towel on a towel
warmer. While Towel Warmer
design vary, ensure that as much
as possible of the towel is
touching the Towel Warmer to
ensure efficient even warming
of the towel.
Towel Warmer is not to be located
within a shower/ tub zone and the user should NEVER
operate or use the Towel Warmer.
