TIP FOR USING THE ACCESSORIES Before treating leather, special fabrics (especially dralon and velvet) or wooden surfaces with steam, consult the manufacturer's instructions and always proceed only after carrying out a test on a hidden part or a sample. Allow the area treated with steam to dry and then check whether any changes in colour or deformations have occurred before proceeding further, ensuring exactly the same steam power and distance as in the test. When cleaning wooden surfaces (furniture, doors, etc. ) and brick floors always proceed with caution since excessive use of steam could damage the wax, the polish or the colour of the surface to be cleaned. It is therefore advisable to apply the steam to these surfaces only for short periods at a time or to clean them with a cloth that has been treated with steam. synthetic materials, enamelled surfaces, etc. ) we strongly recommend using the steam at its lowest output power. When cleaning glazed surfaces, if the weather is particularly cold preheat the glass working at distance of about 50 cm away from the surface.
