Fabric brush assembly

• Insert the fabric brush into the holes located on the

steam head - fig.10.

• Before removing the fabric brush, be sure the

appliance is unplugged and totally cool.

• Pull the brush out of the steam head to remove it.

TIP: Before using this accessory, check the manufacturer recommendations. It is also recommended that you carry out a test on part of the fabric which cannot be seen.

Filling the water tank

• Ensure that the steamer is unplugged - fig.11.

Remove the water tank from the base of the appliance by pulling the handle upwards - fig.12. Unscrew the tank cap and fill the tank - fig.13. The tank holds 1.8 liters (60 ounces).

• The steamer must to be used with TAP WATER. If the water in your area is hard, T-fal recommends that you mix half tap water and half distilled water, which reduces the hardness. You can also use bottled spring water or distilled water only.

• After closing the cap, turn the tank down and hold it by the handle. Check out that no water is leaking through the cap.

• Place the water tank on the base - fig.14. If you have any difficulty to placing it, check that the water tank is not the wrong way round.

Use

• The steamer works with 2 alkaline LR44 batteries (1,5V), they are included in the appliance. The batteries need to be replaced between 2 and 4 years depending on usage. To change the batteries, remove the cover screws on the handle of the steamer and place the batteries. Close the cover and apply screws to secure it -

fig.21.*

Be sure the unit is unplugged and completely cool before attaching this accessory.

IMPORTANT Never use water that contains additives (starch, perfume, aromatic substances, softener, etc) in the steamer. Additives such as these can affect the properties of the steam and lead to the formation of deposits. Never use water completely distilled or demineralized.

NB: if the battery is not installed correctly, the steamer will not work.

*Depending on the model: these accessories are specific to certain models or available as an option.

• Only operate the steamer on the floor clear of any

materials which may obstruct the base of the steamer, ensure the floor is dry, flat, stable and heat-resistant. Do not obstruct the openings on the lower part of the appliance. This device should not be used on very thick carpets or rugs.

• Expand the pole to the maximum height by unlocking

it, pulling it gently and locking it again - fig.15.

• Plug in the power cord and switch the power ‘ON’ on

the side of the appliance. The power light indicator must illuminate.

• Select the proper steam flow level according to the type

of fabrics (3 different settings to perfecly adapt the steam output to all fabric types, from delicate to thick ones) - fig.16.

• Press the button on the handle: ‘steam on demand

system’, the steamer is in a ready mode. Press the button again, steam will start to come out - fig.17*

• The steamer produces steam in 60 seconds.

• Put the garment directly on the removable folded hanger or another one that you can hang up on the hook. You can use the removable clips* to fix a pant or skirt from the top or to stretch a garment from the bottom.

• Grasp the steam head with the steam vents pointing

away from you. Start steaming by brushing material lightly with the grain of the fabric in an up/down vertical motion. The fabric brush opens the weave of the fabrics for better steam penetration.

• Start at the top the garment and gradually move

downward. Always steam in a vertical position - fig.18.

• For more ease, we recommend to pull the garment

downward with your free hand while steaming. Be careful not to touch the hot steam.

• During use, the hose may make a gurgling noise. This is

a normal occurrence due to condensation. If you hear the gurgling noise, hold the hose up to direct the condensation back into the appliance.

• Hang the steam head in an upright position on the

hook when not in use.

Warning: Do not allow the steamer to run dry.

Warning: Do not bend the steam hose during use or storage.

position. Once the power indicator light turns off, you can unplug the appliance.
