STEP 7: FINISHING PRESSING/STORING THE UNIT
a. W ater may be left in the reservoir, because it will not drip out if the machine is
stored in an upright position. However, it is recommended that if the machine
will be stored for some time, that all the water in the unit should be drained by
pressing the steam burst button until all of the water is pumped out.
b. P ress the *POWER* button, the red power light will go out. Disconnect the plug
from the outlet. Leave appliance in open position.
c. Wait for the steam press to cool completely (approximately 30 minutes).
d. W hen cool, lower the pressing plate onto the ironing board pushing the handle
to its lowest position.
e. Turn the locking knob to the locked position. This should prevent the steam
press from opening while being moved or stored.
f. Loosely wrap the electric cord and place it in the opening at the front of the
base of the ironing board. You are now ready to store the unit.
STEP 8: CLEANING (AS NEEDED)
a. Cleaning the Pressing Plate: Place the pressing cushion in the center of the
ironing board. Place a clean towel over the pressing cushion and the ironing
board. Set the steam control and temperature control to their maximum set-
ting. When the ready light comes on, gently lower the pressing plate onto the
pressing cushion. With water in the reservoir tank, press the steam burst con-
trol 6 to 7 times. Be careful to avoid touching the hot metal surfaces or leaving
your hand in the bursts of steam.
b. O nce the Pressing Plate has cooled down you can clean the surface with a
damp cloth. DO NOT use any abrasives on the pressing plate. This pressing
plate has a non-stick coating that will assist in cleaning.
c. The ironing board cover is removable for normal washing. You can rinse the
ironing board cover with mild detergent and warm water.
