IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should

always be followed, including the following:

Read all instructions before using the iron.

1. Use iron only for its intended use.

2. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not

immerse the iron in water or other liquids.

3. The iron should always be turned to Minimum (Min)

before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never

yank cord to disconnect from outlet, instead grasp

plug and pull to disconnect.

4. Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron

cool completely before putting away. Loop cord

loosely around iron when storing.

5. Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when

filling iron with water, emptying iron or when not in

use.

6. Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the

iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the

risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron,

ship it to the nearest authorized Rowenta Appliance

Service Center for examination and repair. Incorrect

reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when

the iron is used.

7. Close supervision is necessary for any appliance

being used by or near children. Do not leave iron

unattended while plugged in or on an ironing board.

8. Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot

water or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam

iron upside down there may be hot water in the

reservoir.

9. The use of accessory attachments is not recommended

by Rowenta Appliance Company and may result in fire,

electric shock or personal injury.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. This is a 1400 watt appliance. To avoid a circuit

overload, do not operate another high wattage

appliance on the same circuit.

2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,

a 12-ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for

less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken

to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or

tripped over.

3. Your Rowenta appliance is intended for household

use only.

BEFORE USE

왎Please read the instructions for use and the Important Safeguards

carefully.

왎Remove the transparent soleplate protector.

왎It is normal for a small amount of smoke to be produced the first

time the iron is used. This will quickly disappear.

3-WAY AUTO-OFF

If the iron is not moved while it is plugged

in, an internal safety switch will turn it off.

It will turn off in 8 minutes if left vertically

or in 30 seconds if left on its soleplate or

tipped over. A red flashing light indicates

that the auto-off has been activated.

To switch the iron on again, move the iron

or gently shake it.

Wait until iron is fully reheated before

use.

STEAM IRONING

Filling with water

왎Ensure the iron is unplugged.

왎Slide the variable steam control comple-

tely to the left.

왎Hold the appliance upright. Slide the

cover of the water filling inlet open.

왎Fill the iron with tap water to the

maximum level mark (see water usage

for more information).

Adding water

왎If you need to add water during ironing.

UNPLUG the iron and repeat above

steps.

왎Ensure iron is fully reheated after filling

(temperature indicator light goes out)

before ironing.

왎To avoid damage to clothes from dust

or dirt that may collect in the iron, we

recommend that for the first use or after

the iron has been stored for some time

that you first iron an old cloth, testing

both the steam and burst of steam

feature.

SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE

Set the temperature control dial according

to the type of fabric you are ironing.

Check the fabric's label for appropriate

setting.

To avoid an automatic switch off while the iron is heating up, always

keep the iron on its heel. Start at low temperature ●and graduate to

high temperature ● ● ●. For delicate fabrics we recommend carrying

out a test on an unobstrusive part of the garment (inner seam). Steam

can only be produced when the thermostat is in the red cotton/linen

zone.

SETTING VARIABLE STEAM CONTROL

Set the variable steam control to required steam volume. Steam can

only be produced when the thermostat is aligned to ● ● ● or max.

(red zone). Allow iron to heat up (light goes out) before activating the

variable steam control.

Iron ready for steam ironing

Steam is produced as soon as the iron is

held horizontally.

Steam off

Steam generation can be interrupted by

standing the iron on its heel or sliding the

variable steam control fully to the left.

ANTI-DRIP SYSTEM (depending on model)

In order to produce steam, all irons require a high temperature.

If the soleplate is not hot enough some of the water will not turn to

steam and can spit or leak from the soleplate. The new anti-drip

system automatically reduces the volume of steam when ironing at

low temperatures to prevent dripping.

SPRAY SETTING

왎Ensure there is water in the tank.

왎Moistening the fabric with the spray will

make wrinkle removal easier.

왎Press the spray button down slowly for a

jet or quickly and strongly for a mist.

왎Do not spray silk, etc.

BURST OF STEAM

왎To remove stubborn wrinkles or press in

a sharp crease, use the burst of steam

button.

왎Press the button firmly, a strong burst of

steam penetrates deep into the fabric.

왎Leave an interval of at least four seconds

between pressing the burst of steam

button.

왎With water in the tank, the burst of

steam button can be used as soon as the

steam ironing temperature has been

reached (●●●).

VERTICAL STEAM

The iron can also be used vertically. This is

especially useful for getting creases out of

hanging clothes, curtains, tapestries, etc.

To steam vertically, press the burst of steam

button while holding iron in the upright

position.

Warning:

Never iron clothes while they are

being worn.

POINTS TO NOTE

If the iron has not been used for a long time (e.g. several weeks)

the steam channels should be cleaned and any deposits removed from

the iron. To do this, hold the iron horizontally before you start to use it

and allow it to produce steam for about 1 minute. Also activate the

burst of steam button several times.

DRY IRONING

왎Slide the variable steam control fully to

the left. We recommend dry ironing with

an empty tank to be sure there are no

drips, but it can also be performed with

water in the tank.

AFTER IRONING

왎Unplug the iron. Slide the variable steam control completely to the

left (the minimum position) and empty any water left in the tank.

Leave the iron to cool down.

Integrated cord wrap

왎For easy storage, the cord can be wound

loosely around the heel once the iron has

cooled down completely.

왎To protect the soleplate always store the

iron on its heel.

Important:

Always empty the water tank when

you have finished ironing.

WATER TO USE IN ROWENTA IRONS

Tap water

Rowenta irons are designed to be used with REGULAR TAP WATER

(up to 12 grains of hardness). If your water is harder than this, Rowen-

ta recommends mixing half tap water with half distilled water which

reduces the hardness; or just use inexpensive bottled spring water.

Never use 100% distilled water since this can cause the iron to spit

and leak.

Softened water

There are many types of household water softeners and the water

from many of them is perfectly acceptable for use in an iron. However,

some types of softeners, particularly those that use chemicals such as

salt, can cause the iron to leak or spit during use. If you experience

this type of problem, we recommend that you try using inexpensive

bottled spring water or untreated tap water.

Never use 100% pure distilled water.

Once you have changed water it will take several uses to correct the

problem. Rowenta recommends trying the steam function for the first

time on an old towel or cloth to avoid damaging your clothes.

Iron and other impurities

If your water supply contains large amounts of iron or organic matter,

these minerals can collect inside the iron and eventually appear as

brown stains. If you experience these problems Rowenta recommends

using inexpensive bottled spring water.

Never use 100% pure distilled water.

Always remember:

Battery water and water containing additives (such as starch, perfume

or fabric conditioner) may not be used. Such additives can affect the

properties of the stean and, at high temperatures, can form deposits

in the steam chamber, which will mark the laundry when they are

emitted through the steam vents. For this reason descaling liquids

should not be used.

SELF CLEANING

Your iron is equipped with two self clean functions.

Vapodur Valve

The patented Vapodur valve ensures that the opening which allows

the water to drip from the water tank into the steam chamber of your

iron remains unaffected by hard water deposits.

To ensure your iron continues to steam efficiently the valve MUST be

opened and closed a few times. This is done by moving the variable

steam control left to right a few times each time you finish ironing.

Steam Chamber Cleaning Function

This function allows loose mineral deposits and other impurities that

build up inside the iron to be flushed out. This type of self cleaning

only needs to be carried out occasionally and never more than once

a month.

왎Fill the iron with cold tap water and set

variable steam to min.

왎Set thermostat dial to maximum

position.

왎Stand on heel and plug in.

왎When the iron reaches the correct

temperature, indicator light will go out,

unplug iron.

왎Hold iron horizontally over the sink with

soleplate pointing away from body.

왎Press and hold down the self clean

button for about 1 minute.

WARNING: Doing this will cause steam and hot water to be

ejected from the soleplate. Take all proper precautions and hold

iron away from body.

왎Move the iron gently back and forth and side to side until all water

has run through.

왎Carefully wipe all water and material from the soleplate with an old

folded towel, as the water and minerals can stain the soleplate

(although this has no effect on glide or performance).

Cle

WARNING: Iron and soleplate may still be hot, exercise care while

wiping.

왎Place iron on heel and leave to cool.

왎IMPORTANT: before using the iron after self cleaning, test steam

and burst of steam on an old towel or cloth to ensure all loose

material has been removed from the iron.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

왎When cold and unplugged, the iron can be cleaned with a damp

cloth and wiped dry. Never use household cleaners or solvents.

Cleaning the soleplate

Rowenta stainless steel soleplates have excellent non-stick properties

and can be simply wiped clean when cold.

왎In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the soleplate

(starch, detergent buildup, burnt synthetic fibers). This can be easily

removed by using the Rowenta Soleplate Cleaning Kit or a quality

hot iron soleplate cleaner available at most stores.

왎Do not use abrasive household cleaners or abrasive cleaning pads.

왎The soleplate of your iron makes ironing easier. To prevent scratch-

ing of the soleplate, do not iron over sharp objects (zippers, etc.).

Do not place the iron on rough surfaces, e.g. metal iron support,

which may scratch the soleplate.
