▪ Always test garments by steaming a small hidden area to make sure the garment takes well to steam.
▪ Always read garment care label instructions . Low heat settings require the delicate fabric frame.
▪ Small amounts of dripping might occur during use . If excessive, either the steamer needs time to get back
