from the iron platform (Fig. 8).

of the appliance.

Note: The pump is activated each time you press the steam trigger. It produces subtle rattling 
sound, which is normal. When there is no water in the water tank, the pump sound is louder. Fill up 
the water tank with water when the water level drops below the minimum level.
