CLEANING MINERAL DEPOSITS
One common problem that may occur with a steamer is mineral
deposits caused by a high mineral content in many municipal
water supplies. Mineral residue inside of the internal pipes and
heater can cause intermittent steaming or, in some cases, no
steaming at all.
NOTE: To reduce or eliminate the occurrence of mineral deposits,
we recommend the use of de-mineralized or distilled water in the
unit. However, regular tap water can also be used.
The recommendations that follow can be used to reduce mineral
deposits. If not using de-mineralized or distilled water, we
recommend you follow this procedure monthly.
1. Make sure the unit is unplugged and cool.
2. Mix a solution of 50% vinegar and 50% water. 2 ounces of this
solution will be sufficient.
3. Remove the water tank plug and slowly pour the mixed solution
into the water tank and replace the water tank plug.
4. Let stand for 40 minutes.
5. Drain the solution out of the water tank unit into a sink or tub.
6. Pour clean water in the tank and drain. Repeat this step until
the vinegar odor dissipates.
7. Reassemble the unit and operate normally.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using your Tobi
™
Travel Steamer, basic precautions should
always be used, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water and steam emitting
from steam vents, always check appliance for leaks before each
use. Do not use the Tobi
™
Travel Steamer if you see steam
coming from anywhere besides the steamer surface.
3. Check that the main voltage corresponds to the voltage
indicated on the rating label, see specifications below:
4. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug
and pull to disconnect.
5. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let appliance cool
completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around
appliance when storing.
6. Always disconnect appliance from electrical outlet when filling
with water or emptying water, and when not in use.
7. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if the
appliance has been dropped or damaged. To reduce the risk
of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the
appliance, take it to a qualified service person for examination
and repair. Incorrect reassembly or repair could cause a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is
used.
