When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are closely supervised and instructed concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
4. Do not leave appliance unattended while connected.
5. 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.
6. Use appliance only for its intended use.
7. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the
appliance in water or other liquids.
8. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug
and pull to disconnect.
9. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool
completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around appliance when storing.
10. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when filling
with water or emptying, and when not in use.
11.
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, take it to a qualified service person for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly or repair could cause a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is used.
12. 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.
13. To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
14. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 15-ampere cord
should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

Garment Steamer Tips
NOTICE: To avoid garment damage, check garment label for fabric composition and any steaming instructions such as this symbol:
Do not use steam
• The retractable pole should be fully extended during operation to ensure the free flow of steam through the flexible steam hose.
• Inserting the retractable pole so that the integrated garment hanger faces the rear of the unit will ensure stability while steaming clothing.
• Do not operate without water in the water tank. To add water during operation, first switch steamer OFF ( O ) and then remove water tank and refill.
• Use caution when hanging clothing from the integrated garment hanger. Too much weight or pulling on the garment hanger may cause the unit to tip over.
• The integrated garment hanger is not intended for hanging multiple garments at one time or for garment storage.
• When steaming, touching fabrics lightly with the steam nozzle/ handle will assist in wrinkle removal. It is important to make contact with the garment and/or fabric.
• For more difficult wrinkles, try steaming from the underside of the fabric. This allows the fibers in the material to relax.
• Pants are more easily steamed upside down, holding the cuffs.
• Your garment steamer is also ideal for steaming curtains, upholstery, and other fabric items that are difficult or unable to be ironed.
Using the Brush/Creasing Attachments
NOTE: Attachments are optional accessories on select models. Make sure unit is OFF when assembling attachments.
Brush Attachment
Use the Brush Attachment to:
• Steam upholstery, pillows, and other fabrics
• Freshen clothing and fabrics that have become “matted” over time
• Assist with lint removal while steaming
Creasing Attachment
Use the Creasing Attachment to:
• Steam creases into pants, shirt cuffs, and collars

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
Unit won’t steam. Not enough steam.
Flexible steam hose drips and/or leaks.
Steamer leaves water spots on clothing.
Flexible steam hose emits a gurgling noise.
PROBABLE CAUSE
•
Make sure there is water in the water tank and unit is plugged in and switched to ON ( I ) position.
• Do not hold the steam handle/nozzle too low for too long, or steam will condense into water inside the hose and may block normal steam flow. Periodically lift steam nozzle/handle as high as possible to let any condensation in flexible steam hose drain back into unit.
• Extend retractable pole until it is fully open. Do not allow kinks in the flexible steam hose.
• Allow enough time (approximately one minute) for steamer to preheat before use.
• Periodically lift steam nozzle/handle as high as possible to let any condensation in flexible steam hose drain back into unit.
• Fully extend flexible steam hose to allow steam to flow freely.
