position. To engage it, depress the
trigger button with your thumb and then
slide your thumb forward. (Fig. 3) To
release the lock and turn off the steam,
press down on the slide and pull it back,
then release the pressure on the trigger.
To avoid loss of steam while the unit
is heating, be sure that the steam
trigger is not depressed or locked in
the “ON” position prior to plugging
the unit in.
