Instructions for use

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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 or emptying and 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,

take 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 connected 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.

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 over-

load, 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 can not be pulled or

tripped over.

3. After the iron has cooled, wrap the cord loosely

around the handle.

4. Your Rowenta appliance is intended for household

use only.

BEFORE USE

왎Please read the instructions for use and the Important Safeguards

carefully.

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

time the iron is used. This will quickly disappear.

STEAM IRONING

Filling with water

왎Ensure the iron is unplugged.

왎Move the variable steam control com-

pletely to minimum to shut off the steam

valve.

왎Hold the iron upright so that the tank

opening is horizontal. Fill with tap water

up to the max. mark (see water usage for

more information).

Adding water

왎Ensure the iron is unplugged.

왎Move the variable steam control completely to minimum to shut off

steam valve. Add water.

왎Plug in the iron again and wait until the pilot light goes off.

Return the variable steam control slide to the desired steam volume.

SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE

To avoid damage to clothes from dust or

dirt that may collect in the iron, we recom-

mend 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.

Set the temperature control dial according

to the type of fabric you are ironing.

Check the fabric's label for appropriate

setting.

●synthetics (low temperature)

●● silk, wool (medium temperature)

●●● cotton, linen (high temperature)

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).

VARIABLE STEAM FUNCTION

Set the variable steam control to required

steam volume. Steam can only be produced

when the thermostat is in the red cotton/

linen zone. Allow iron to heat up (light goes

out) before activating the variable steam

control. Reduce or set variable steam to

min. when ironing at low temperatures to

avoid water leakage or spitting.

Iron ready for steam ironing

Steam is produced as soon as the iron is held horizontally.

Steam off

Steam generation can be interrupted:

왎by standing the iron on its heel or

왎by sliding the variable steam control completely to min

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

왎The iron can also be used vertically. This

is especially useful for getting creases out

of hanging clothes, curtains, tapestries,

etc.

왎To steam vertically press the burst of

steam button while holding iron in the

upright position.

Warning:

Never iron clothes while they are

being worn.

DRY IRONING

왎Sliding the variable steam control fully to

the left, dry ironing can be performed

either with or preferably without water in

the tank.

AFTER IRONING

왎Turn temperature control dial completely to minimum. Unplug

the iron. Slide the variable steam control completely to minimum

empty any water left in the tank. Leave the iron to cool down.

왎For easy storage the cord can be wound loosely around the iron

once the iron has cooled off completely.

왎Always store the iron on its heel to protect the soleplate.

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, Rowenta

recommends mixing half tap water with half distilled water which

reduces the hardness; or use just 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.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

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

cloth and wiped dry.

Cleaning the soleplate

Rowenta Titan Plus 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.

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).

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.

IRON TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible cause Solution

Iron is leaking. Use only tap water. NEVER USE 100% DISTILLED WATER.

The iron is designed to use tap

water. In very hard water areas we

recommend mixing half tap water
