PROPER STORAGE
Preparing your Compact Fabric Steamer for storage is quick and simple. When you
have finished your steaming tasks, follow the steps listed below.
1. Unplug grounded power cord from electrical outlet.
2. Allow unit to cool completely (at least 30 minutes).
3. Remove all attachments from unit.
4. Drain any remaining water in Water Reservoir into a sink or tub to minimize
potential mineral build-up. Loosely reattach Water Reservoir Cap. Do not
tighten cap, as it may be difficult to remove the next time you use the unit.
5. Store all attachments, preferably near Compact Fabric Steamer.
6. Store Compact Fabric Steamer in a cool, dry location.
REMOVING MINERAL BUILD-UP
A common problem with steam appliances is mineral build-up caused by high
mineral content in many municipal water supplies. The best way to avoid this is
to use de-mineralized or distilled water in unit. If you are unable to use de-
mineralized or distilled water, we recommend you use this procedure monthly to
help avoid mineral build-up:
1. Unplug grounded power cord from electrical outlet and allow unit to
completely cool.
2. Remove all attachments from unit.
3. Remove Water Reservoir Cap and drain water from Water Reservoir into sink
or tub.
4. Using a measuring cup, make a mixture of 4 oz. (118 ml.) vinegar and 4 oz.
(118 ml.) water.
5. Slowly pour water-vinegar solution into Water Reservoir.
6. Allow to stand for 40 minutes.
7. Drain water-vinegar solution from Water Reservoir.
8. Rinse Water Reservoir with fresh water, drain and repeat until vinegar odor
dissipates.
9. Replace Water Reservoir Cap.
