This feature allows you to smooth out creases in garments or drapery in a similar manner to a garment steamer. The high steam pressure of the Steam Station can provide bursts of steam while holding the iron vertically. For best results, utilize on delicate or light fabrics. Only direct steam at hanging garments in a safe area and ensure you always refer to gar-ment manufacturer recommendations.

WARNING: Do NOT direct the steam onto a garment that is being worn or at people or animals.
