- Prepare Garment: Hang the garment on a hanger. Gently pull the fabric taut with one hand.
- Apply Steam: Hold the steamer vertically, ensuring the steam head is in contact with the fabric (or slightly above for very delicate materials). Move the steamer slowly up and down the garment, allowing the steam to penetrate the fibers.
- Steaming Delicate Fabrics: Use the velvet side of the reversible multi-pad for delicate fabrics to protect them from direct contact with the steam head.
- After Use: Once finished, press the power button to turn off the steamer and unplug it from the outlet. Allow the appliance to cool down completely before emptying the water tank and storing.
