When using the separately available water softener, read the supplied operating instructions before use.

If hard water is used, the mineral content of the water will form deposits on the inside of the boiler of the appliance and may obstruct the flow of steam.

•Be careful not to let water come in contact with the nozzle, cosmetic ring, main panel, and switch.

•Dispose any leftover water in the water supply cup.

•Do not add water past the full mark on the water supply cup or if water remains in the appliance. (Check the water level and add water only when there is no remaining water in the appliance.)

Using the facial ionic steamer

1.Insert the plug into a power outlet and press the power switch until a click is heard.

•Ionize lamp turns on.

•Ionized steam is released after about 30 seconds.

-It is normal for hot water droplets to be discharged at the begining of the steam flow.

-A whizzing may be heard. This is the sound of electric discharge which is normal.

•Do not operate the appliance with the water supply cup placed on the nozzle.

2.Adjust the angle (up/down) of the nozzle. (Fig. 4)

•Adjust the nozzle while taking care not to directly touch the steam.

How to use the steam

IMove your face slightly to the left and right so that the steam spreads evenly.

IUsing the steam on your nose is effective on the T-zone.

1.Keep your face at least 25 cm away from the steam outlet, using the supplied 25-cm measure as a guide. (Fig. 5)

2.Position the steam outlet towards your face slightly above your chin. (Fig. 6)

3.After use, wipe off the water (such as with a tissue), then also apply a lotion to prepare your face and apply an emulsion to supplement skin oil.

2.Leave the appliance alone to cool for at least 10 minutes.

3.Discard the water in the drain cup.

4.Pour out the water from the appliance in the direction of the arrow as shown.

•Emptying the water in a direction other than that indicated by the arrow may get the switch wet, which may cause a malfunction.

Note: When discarding the water, be careful not to get water on the power plug and cord.

5.Wipe off any water from the appliance.
