How to Use

Fill the Water Tank and Check the Drain Tank

Two water tanks are located near the bottom of the Steam Closet.

 
  • Right Tank - Water Tank: Fill the right side water tank with clean tap water before using the Steam Closet.
  • Left Tank - Drain Tank: The drain tank  the left will fill with used water from the water tank as cycles are run. The drain tank does not need to be emptied after every cycle; however, it fills up after about 3 cycles and will need to be emptied when full. The Steam Closet will not run if the drain tank is full.
 

Using  a Cycle

  1. Put your item(s) on the moving hangers, the shelf, or the in-door pants hanger.
    • Moving hangers – Use for suits, coats, dresses, skirts, shirts, and pants that don’t require a crease. 
      • An ordinary metal/plastic hanger can be used if the hook is less than 5/32 in. (4 mm) thick. The hook must fit in the indentation in the moving hanger snugly. If the fit is too loose, it may result in vibration, noise, and damage to clothing. 
    • Shelf – Pillows, Stuffed Toys, Sweaters, Baby Clothes
    • Clothes Pants Crease Door – Use for pants with creases.
  2. Touch "Power" and select  your cycle. Multiple presses of the cycle selected will rotate options for that cycle.
    • Refresh – Refreshes clothes with high temperature steam and vibration. The cycle helps reduce odors in clothes. Options for this cycle are: Light, Normal, or Heavy.
    • Special Care – Adjusts time, temperature, and vibration based on your selection. Options for this cycle are: Suits/Coats, Pants Crease, Activewear, Wool/Knit.
    • Sanitize – Use this cycle to steam clean and dry items. Options for this cycle are: Normal, Bedding, Kid’s Item, Heavy Duty.
    • Gentle Dry - Dries clothes using warm air and the moving hanger without tumbling. It is suitable for refreshing non-washable fabrics and natural fibers like 100% wool and cashmere. Options for this cycle are: Normal, Rain/Snow, Timed Dry.
  3. Touch and hold "Start/Pause" to begin the cycle.
    • Pause a cycle anytime by touching "Start/Pause" again. Do not open the door during operation.
  4. Remove your items when the cycle is complete and leave the door open to let the warm air escape.
    • If you can’t remove your items after the cycle ends, the Night Care feature periodically produces warm air to prevent condensation. Press and hold "Sanitize" for 3 seconds to activate.
