IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE.
2. Use appliance only for its intended use.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or
other liquids.
4. Always turn the appliance to “Off” before plugging or unplugging the
appliance from the electrical outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from
outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool completely before
putting away. Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing.
6. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when filling with water or
emptying, and when not in use.
7. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord, or if the appliance has been
dropped or damaged. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble
or attempt to repair the appliance, contact customer service. Incorrect
reassembly or repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons when the appliance is used.
8. Burns could occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water, or steam. Use
care when you turn a steam appliance upside down – there may be hot water
in the reservoir.
9. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from steam vents, check
appliance before each use by holding it away from body and operating steam
button.
10. To reduce the likelihood of circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit.
11. Never steam clothes while someone is wearing them.

12. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15 ampere rated cord should be
used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to
arrange the cord so that the cord cannot be pulled or tripped over.
13. When filling the water reservoir, watch for water that can drip onto the floor
and cause you to slip and fall.
14. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or
tripped over. Always make sure you can move freely without getting tangled
with the cord.
15. Appliance may cause personal injury or be damaged if dropped.
16. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries or void your warranty.
17. To avoid personal injury and damage to the appliance, only add water to the
water reservoir. NEVER add cleaning solutions, perfumes, oils or any other
chemical additives.
18. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way;
if the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
BEFORE FIRST USE
• Unpack your Steamer; remove and peel off any labels adhered to the
unit.
• Remove and save instruction manual.
• Wipe outside of the unit with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any
dust. Dry thoroughly.
• Keep unit on a flat, leveled surface.
• When using your Steamer for the first time, you may notice a small
amount of smoke and a slight odor. This is normal when heating the
appliance for the first time and there is no reason for concern.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FILLING WATER RESERVOIR
Warning: To avoid personal injury and damage to the unit, only add water
to the water reservoir. NEVER add cleaning solutions, perfumes, oils or any
other chemical additives.
Note: Your Steamer is designed to be used with tap water. However, if you
have hard water, we recommend using distilled water for better results.
1. Place Steamer on a flat surface.
2. Pull and slide out the water reservoir from the stand (Figure 1).
3. Take the water reservoir to a sink. Pull the rubberized water-fill cover
to open and pour tap water from the faucet into the water-fill opening
until it reaches the Max water level in water reservoir (Figure 2). If water
spills outside of the reservoir, or within the center water reservoir cavity,
wipe it dry with a paper towel or cloth.

Warning: When filling the water reservoir, watch for water that can
drip onto the floor and cause you to slip and fall.
Tip: It is not necessary to have a full reservoir of water for the Steamer
to generate steam. For best results, just make sure the water reservoir is
at least half full.
4. Close the water-fill cover and refit the water reservoir into the stand.
Pull on the reservoir to ensure it is fully locked in position.
Note: If you need to add water while steaming, unplug the steamer,
wait until it cools and follow the above steps. If a loud vibrating noise is
heard, then the water level is low and needs to be refilled.
USING YOUR STEAMER VERTICALLY
You can use your Steamer in the vertical position to press with steam
hanging garments and drapes.
1. Fill the water reservoir with water.
2. Hang your garment to be steamed on a clean hanger.
3. Plug the steamer into a standard electrical outlet. The red Indicator light
will flash on and off, indicating that the steamer is heating up. When
the light turns solid red, the Steamer is ready for steaming.
Warning: Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot
be pulled or tripped over. Always make sure you can move freely
without getting tangled with the cord.
Caution: Burns could occur from touching hot parts, hot water, or
steam. Use care when you turn a steam appliance upside down – there
may be hot water in the reservoir.
4. Hold your Steamer by the handle in vertical position with the head
pointing toward the fabric and then press the steam button to start
steaming.
Warning: Steam is hot. Always point steamer exit away from yourself,
other persons, pets, plants and walls. Never steam clothes while they
are being worn.
5. With your free hand, pull the fabric tight and move the Steamer over
the fabric.
6. Touch the fabric lightly with the non-stick panel, moving it in a
downward motion, beginning at the top of the garment and moving
downward. Repeat until fabric is wrinkle-free.
Tip: For more difficult wrinkles, try steaming from the underside of the
fabric.
7. When finished, press the steam button.
8. Place Steamer on a flat surface and unplug from electrical outlet.

STEAMING TIPS
• Improper use of the Steamer can cause property damage due to the
steam. Always read the instructions in this manual before using your
Steamer.
• Do not operate the Steamer with an empty water reservoir. To add water
during operation, turn steamer off, wait for it to cool down then remove
water reservoir and refill.
• Always read the fabric care labels to help determine fabric type to be
steamed. If unsure of fabric’s fiber, test a small hidden area, such as an
inside seam or hem, before steaming.
• For more difficult wrinkles, try steaming from the underside of the fabric.
• When steaming, touching fabric lightly with the steam nozzle can help in
wrinkle removal. It is important to make contact with the garment and/or
fabric.
• Heavier fabrics require more steam.
• Only use water in the unit. Do not add cleaning solutions, scented
perfumes, oils or any other chemicals to the water that can cause damage
to the appliance.
• Do not use steam directly against wall or doors.
• When hanging garment on a door while steaming, be careful not to
damage the door with steam.
• After use, empty water reservoir by turning it upside down to ensure all
water empties out and avoid leaks.
• When steaming, move the steamer continuously over the item being
pressed. Do not keep steamer over an area for any period of time to
avoid damage to the fabric.
