Instructions for the Electrical Cord and Plug

1. ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD: Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
   • Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
   • DO NOT remove the ground prong.
   • DO NOT use an adapter.
   • DO NOT use an extension cord.

2. This unit MUST be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This unit is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a  grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

3. WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plugin anyway.

4. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled or tripping over a long cord.

5. The manufacturer does not recommend using this machine in countries that do not support 120V AC even if a voltage adapter, transformer, or converter is in use.

HOW TO OPERATE

1.  Place steamer on a flat, level surface. Do not block vents on the bottom of the unit.

2. Plugin the cord and select your desired setting on the screen display. Wait for the steam to come out to start using – it will take approximately 50 seconds.
   NOTE: Steamer will run for 60 minutes.

3. Put garment onto the hanger head. Grasp the steam head with the steam vents pointing away from you. Start steaming by touching material lightly with a steaming head and moving in an up/down vertical motion. Begin at the bottom of the garment and move in an upward direction. Steam with the hose in an upright position. If steaming in a low position near the floor,  straighten hose up and out frequently to keep clear of condensation.

NOTE: During operation, the steamer hose may make a gurgling noise. This is a normal result of condensation. If it begins to gurgle, extend the hose up and out to move excess moisture back into the base.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

HELPFUL TIPS

• Check the label of the fabrics for recommendations on care. Test fabric for colorfastness on an unobtrusive part of the garment (inner seam) before steaming.
• Do not touch silk or velvet with a steam head. Some articles can be steamed better from the underside.
• If steaming in a low position near the floor, straighten hose up and out frequently to keep clear condensation. If the hose becomes clogged, it will make a gurgling noise.
