Stain remover steam gun
Preparation:
Ensure that the appliance is not connected to the
mains. Remove connection plug for the iron (7) if this
is connected. Then lift the cover (31) and insert the
connection plug for the steam gun in the correct position
-
with slot to the left - Then follow the same steps as
for ironing, the indicator lights and switches operate in
exactly the same way.
Important:
When the gun is being used, while pushing Steam
release button (20), there might be some water drops,
but this is normal.
Attention
• Use the steam gun in intervals of no longer than 10
seconds at a time.
• Direct the first steam jets towards a cloth in order to
eliminate any possible water condensation residue
from the steam tube.
• Never direct the steam jet at garments that are being
worn by people or animals.
• Do not use the brush extension for delicate fabrics
such as silk or cashmere.
To refresh fabrics
Refreshing garments with the steam gun can lessen
creases and wrinkles, although this does not substitute
ironing with the iron.
For better results, hang the clothes wich you would like
to refresh on hangers.
• With diffuser (23) the sprayed steam enables superficial
fabric creases to be lessened.
• Comb brush (25) can be used for refreshing and
gently combing pile within fabric. Also, for general
purpose cleaning and refreshing of garments, fabrics,
upholstery and to remove fluffs
• Fabric cleanser (24) to be used with more delicate
garments such as velour, velvet and suede, for
refreshing and combing pile within material and for
removing pet hair/fur, dandruff, crumbs etc.
Fully insert the accesory into the concentrator (21). Press
the steam release button (20) for the steam supply and
direct the jet towards the fabric that you would like to
refresh. Maintain a minimum distance of 10 cm to avoid
getting the fabric too damp.
To remove fabric stains
The steam gun can help to remove washable, fresh
stains.
The concentrator (21) and brush extension (22) supply
a concentrated jet of steam that makes it possible to
remove certain types of fabric stains
• If the stain is not fresh, the garment should be washed
in a washing machine or hand-washed according to
the garment care label.
• For stubborn or non-washable stains, take the gar-
-
ment to a specialist cleaning centre or dry cleaners.
Use the concentrator (21) to direct the steam jet at the
stain, in direction from the outer side of the garment
into the fabric placing a sponge or cloth underneath it
to absorb the dirt. The brush extension (22) can also be
used with gentle action to support the cleaning effect.
If the above does not solve the problem, get in touch with
an authorised technical service centre.
Intelligent steam
(depending on model)
This system has intelligent steam control, which, after
releasing the steam release button (17), provides a small
