Cautions for the first use

Remember, safety should be your first priority.

1. Never fill the water reservoir when the power cord is plugged in. 2. Allow the appliance to cool for at least 5 minutes after it has been used.
2. Do not place on unstable surfaces such as cushions while using the steamer.
3. Do not place the steamer close to walls and furniture, as steam may cause discoloration and warping.
4. Never add cold water to hot water; steam may shoot out of the filling hole and cause injuries. Always let the appliance cool before adding water.

Safety Instructions

1. Whenever you need to step away from the steamer, make sure that you unplug it and leave the steamer in a vertical position.
2. Please keep it out of reach of children.
3. DO NOT operate the steamer if it has been dropped, damaged, or has malfunctioned in any way.
4. CAUTION! Make sure your steamer is disconnected from the power supply before pouring water into the tank.
5. DO NOT immerse any part of the steamer in any type of liquid.
6. DO NOT use the steamer if the cord is damaged. Consult with the manufacturer to get your steamer fixed or replaced. (See last page for instructions)
7. To prevent the deposition of minerals in the steam holes, it is recommended to use distilled water for cleaner steam holes.

Filling with Water

1. Before filling the water tank, make sure the steamer is unplugged and held straight or placed on a flat level surface.

7. . Repeat steps 6-7 as necessary until the garment is free of wrinkles.
8. When done steaming, press the On/Off button, unplug and allow the steamer to cool before putting steamer away.
