HOW DO I POSITION MY CLOTHES?

Using straighteners will help you achieve better steaming results.
However, for garments that easily lose their shape (e.g. chunky knit jumpers, viscose, thin t-shirts etc.) use the STEAM cycle without straighteners.
Depending on the results, you may need to reposition the weights on the clothes, or add or remove weights.

SHIRTS
Place up to two shirts on a hanger and hang on the rail.
If you want to steam a shirt, button it up to the top.

To steam, place a large straightener on the back of the shirt, a small straightener on each sleeve and two small straighteners on the front of the shirt.
Depending on the results, you may need to reposition the weights on the clothes, or add or remove weights.

TROUSERS

PROBLEMS	CAUSES	SOLUTION
I am not satisfied with the steaming results.	The selected time and/or number of straighteners is not suitable for the garment(s).
