The Newbealer NB316A is a handheld garment steamer designed to keep your wardrobe and household fabrics fresh and wrinkle-free. It offers a convenient and quick way to revive clothing and other textiles.
Function Description:
The primary function of the Newbealer NB316A is to generate steam to remove creases from garments and fabrics. It can be used on various items, including clothing, curtains, and upholstery. The steamer operates in two modes: low and high, allowing for different steaming intensities. It features an anti-dripping design, enabling horizontal use on an ironing board in addition to vertical steaming. The included fabric brush helps remove lint, pet hair, dust, dirt, and dander from overcoats and down jackets.

Usage Features:
The Newbealer NB316A is designed for ease of use.
- Water Filling: The removable water tank can be easily filled with de-mineralized or distilled water. It's crucial not to exceed the maximum level and to avoid using water with additives or condensation water, as these can damage the steamer and lead to spitting or brown coloring.
- Assembly: The water tank clicks securely into place. The fabric brush attachment aligns with the steam head and locks into position when the steamer is cool.
- Operation:
- Plug in the appliance.
- Wait approximately 35 seconds for preheating. The power indicator light will flash red during heating and turn solid red when ready.
- Press the steam button once for low mode (indicator light remains solid red).
- Press the steam button again for high mode (indicator light turns solid green).
- For optimal results, move the steam jets over the garment from top to bottom, keeping the fabric taut with your free hand and the steamer head in contact with the fabric.
- Safety Precautions:
- Never use the steamer on clothes being worn or direct steam towards people or animals.
- Ensure the steamer is preheated for 20 seconds before use to prevent leakage.
- Always unplug the steamer before attaching or detaching the brush.
- Allow the appliance to cool down completely (about half an hour) before storing.
- Only use officially provided attachments and accessories.
- Do not touch the soleplate of the steamer when hot.
- Never immerse the steamer in water or other liquids.
- Always grasp the plug, not the cord, to disconnect from the outlet.
- Keep the steamer disconnected from the electrical outlet when filling, emptying, or not in use.
- Do not operate if the cord or appliance is damaged.
- Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the steamer yourself; return it to a service center.
- Never drop or insert objects into steam vents.
- Avoid using the steamer outdoors or near aerosol products/oxygen manipulation.
- Use the handle to avoid burns, as the surface can get hot.
- Do not place the steam nozzle directly on surfaces or the power cord.
- Arrange the cord carefully to prevent pulling or tripping.
