4. Operating Instructions
The Rolipo SL-007 is designed for quick and effective wrinkle removal. It can be used both vertically and horizontally.
- Preheating: Once plugged in, the steamer will begin to heat up. The indicator light will show when it's ready for use (typically within 20-30 seconds).
- Steaming Garments:
- Hang the garment on a hanger or lay it flat on a clean, heat-resistant surface.
- Hold the steamer upright (for vertical steaming) or flat (for horizontal steaming) and press the steam trigger.
- Move the steam nozzle slowly over the fabric, allowing the steam to penetrate and relax the fibers. For stubborn wrinkles, you may gently press the soleplate against the fabric.
- For best results, pull the fabric taut with your free hand while steaming.
