Before using the stain remover gun, it is advisa-

ble to carefully read these instructions which al-

low a correct classification of stains and supply

accurate advice on the most appropriate way of

operating.

In order to act properly on stains, it is important

to be able to distinguish them.

Identifying the stain means understanding its ori-

gin and age. This allows you to avoid unsucces-

sful attempts which often, as well as not produ-

cing an optimal result, can also be damaging.

“THE AGE”

All RECENT stains can be removed with the

stain remover gun without having to wash the

item. As they get older, stains attach themselves

to the fabric’s fibres and in some cases, steam

cannot remove them. In such cases it is neces-

sary to wash the item. If the recently stained fa-

brics are treated immediately with mineral water,

the stain does not attach itself to the fibres and

subsequent steam cleaning with the stain remo-

ver gun will prove quicker and more effective.

“THE ORIGIN”

Stains are produced from substances of various

origins and according to the base of the predo-

minant substance they can be classified as ha-

ving the following origin:

• ANIMAL (protein base): soup and meat

sauce, milk and cream, blood, sweat, egg,

urine, vomit.

• VEGETABLE (tannin base): beer, coffee, cho-

colate, Coca-Cola, fruit, wine, tea.

• VARIOUS (specific stains): paint, lip-stick,

biro, tar, rust, perfume.

To better identify the origins of the staining sub-

stance you can help yourself by using your sens-

es. The shape, touch, colour and location are

very important (TAB.1).

CONNECTION

• Proceed as described in the “Preparation for

use” paragraph.

• Open the cover of the built-in socket (15)

(fig.12), insert the one-piece plug (16) (fig.13)

paying attention that the pin on the plug is per-

fectly positioned in its locking hole on the co-

ver of the plug.

• At the first steam request, a few drops of wa-

ter mixed with steam may come until the tem-

perature stabilises. It is advisable to direct the

first jet of steam onto a cloth.

To obtain steam from the stain remover gun,

press button (19). The powerful jet of steam pro-

duced can be used effectively as follows, depen-

ding on the type and size of stain.

• If operaiiting on a SUPERFICIAL STAIN, you

must direct the jet of steam to skim the fabric

in proximity of the stain in order to project the

dirt with the pressure against a cloth used to

collect it (fig. 14).

• If operating on a DEEP STAIN, you must turn

the item inside out and act on the fabric from

the inside. After resting it on a sponge, direct

the jet of steam onto the stain so that the dis-

solved dirt can exit from the opposite side of

the fabric and be absorbed by the sponge (fig.

15).

• Simple methods are often the most effective:

a shot of steam can sometimes be sufficient to

eliminate even the most resistant stains.

• To avoid halos around the stain it is advisable

to point the steam jet nearby the borders of

the stain first and then towards the center of it

gradually.

• Make sure that the stain has been completely

removed from the fabric before ironing it, as

the iron’s heat fixes the stain permanently.

• To obtain an even better result, it is advisable

to perform the cleaning operations on an iro-

ning table equipped with a suction board.

• DO NOT use the steam on bloodstains as

blood coagulates with heat thus fixing the

stain permanently.

• Should the stain persist, do not dry the item

before acting a second time. Should the stain

persist even after the second attempt, it is ad-
