STEAM CONTROL
•Steam is produced only when the yellow steam ready light is on.
•The green ready light goes off when the unit has reached the desired temperature. The yellow steam ready light will come on when the unit is ready to produce steam.
•If this is the first time you are using the steam press or you have been storing it for some time, lift the pressing plate into the raised position and press the burst of steam button several times until the steam begins to flow.
•The burst of steam function can only be used when the steam ready light is on AND the steam press is in a slightly opened position. Do not use the burn of steam function when the steam press is closed, or you may damage the unit.
•Do not press the burst of steam button for more than 5 seconds or water may drip on your garment.

PRESSING
•Make sure the locking knob (2) is in the open position (UNLOCK).
•Lift the handle (1). The pressing plate (4) moves to the up position.
•Carefully arrange the garment to be pressed onto the ironing board (5).
•Grasp the handle of the pressing plate(4) and lower it onto the ironing board (5), capturing the garment between the two halves of the steam press.
•For lightly creased garments, simply lowering the handle and allowing the pressing plate to rest on the ironing board will be sufficient. Return to the open position. For very creased garments, continue to grasp the handle and press downward until the pressing plate is pushed to its lowest position, and then open the press.
•If the temperature is set high enough you may give the fabric a burst of steam by pressing the burst of steam button (3) to remove stubborn wrinkles. Lower the pressing plate until it is about two inches from the garment. Press the burst of steam button for about 3-5 seconds. After releasing the burst of steam button you may fully lower the pressing plate.
NOTE: Do not press the burst of steam button when the pressing plate is in its lowest (closed) position.
•After a few seconds, lift the handle and raise the pressing plate back to the raised position.
USING THE SPRAY BOTTLE
Lightly spray the garment before placing it on the ironing board. This helps to distribute an even, fine mist over the fabric, preparing it to be pressed, and removing all wrinkles.
USING THE PRESSING CUSHION
Some garments have been constructed with details, such as darts, curved seams and shoulder pads, which are not intended to be pressed flat. A pressing cushion is supplied with your steam press for use with these areas.
•Use the cushion whenever pressing areas where no creases are desired or to shape tailored garments.

•Place the area to be pressed onto the ironing board.
•Place the pressing cushion under the dart, seam etc.
•Make sure the area to be pressed is raised and lower the pressing plate. The raised area is the only area the plate should contact. NOTE: Do not attempt to lower the pressing plate to its lowest position or lock the pressing plate against the ironing board with the pressing cushion in place. You MAY DAMAGE the steam press by doing so.
•Raise the pressing plate after a few seconds.
STORING
•Water may be left in the water tank, because it will not drip out if the machine is stored in an upright position. However, it is recommended that if the machine will be stored for some time, that all the water in the unit should be drained by pressing the burst of steam button until all of the water is pumped out.
•Press “ON/OFF”, the red power light will go out. Disconnect the plug from the outlet. Leave appliance in open position.
•Wait for the steam press to cool completely (approximately 30 minutes).
•When cool, lower the pressing plate onto the ironing board pushing the handle to its lowest position.
•Turn the locking knob to the locked position. This should prevent the steam press from opening while being moved or stored.
•Loosely wrap the electric cord and place it in the opening at the front of the base of the ironing board. You are now ready to store the unit.
CLEANING
•To clean the pressing plate, place the pressing cushion in the center of the ironing board. Place a clean towel over the pressing cushion and the ironing board. Set the temperature control to its maximum setting. When the ready light comes on and the steam ready light goes off, gently lower the pressing plate onto the pressing cushion. With water in the water tank, press the burst of steam button 6 to 7 times. Be careful to avoid
