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. Do not

use the appliance in a wet environment (on wet

floor, near a sink)

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 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. This iron is not a toy, so 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

water tank.

9. The use of accessory attachments is not recommend-

ed by Rowenta Appliance Company and may result

in fire, electric shock or personal injury.

10. This appliance was set at the factory to operate at

120 volts. Refer to Operating Instructions section of

this manual for conversion to 240 volts operation or

the equivalent.

11. Be sure dual voltage selector is in correct voltage

position before operating. Before plugging in, read

the information about dual voltage operation in the

instruction section of this manual.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. This is a 1000 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 10-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.

왎Remove the soleplate sticker or 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.

FOLDING HANDLE

The handle should be in the upright

position while the iron is in use. To lock the

handle in the upright position, lift the

handle and it will automatically lock.

To fold handle , press handle release button

on the rear of the iron.

DUAL VOLTAGE

The iron has a dual voltage selector so it can

work on both, 120 V or 240 V, AC systems.

Before plug in, be sure the dual voltage

selector is in the correct voltage position

before operating. To do this, turn the dual

voltage selector which is below the

soleplate with a coin, so it is in the correct

voltage position (either 120 V or 240 V).

Never switch during usage.

STEAM IRONING

Filling with water

왎Ensure the iron is unplugged.

왎Slide the steam control forward until the

no steam icon appears ( no steam

position).

왎Remove the water tank cap, fill the tank

using the filling cup provided with tap

water and close the cap.

Do not hold the iron under the tap

Adding water

왎If you need to add water during ironing.

UNPLUG the iron and repeat filling water

steps.

왎Ensure iron is fully reheated after filling

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 according to

the type of fabric you are ironing.

Check the fabric's label for appropriate

setting.

Start at low temperature ●and graduate to high temperature ● ● ●.

For delicate fabrics we recommend carrying out a test on an unobstru-

sive part of the garment (inner seam). Steam can only be produced

when the thermostat is in the colored cotton/linen zone.

SETTING STEAM CONTROL

Slide the steam control towards the back of the iron until the steam

icon appears, so it is in the steaming position. Steam can only be

produced when the thermostat is in the colored cotton/linen zone.

Allow iron to heat up before switching the steam control to the steam-

ing position. When ironing at low temperatures, to avoid water leak-

age or spitting, set steam control to no steam position.

Iron ready for steam ironing

Steam is produced as soon as the iron is

held horizontally.

Steam off

Steam generation can be interrupted by

switching the steam control to the no steam

position.

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.

왎The 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 holes 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 press the burst

of steam button several times.

DRY IRONING

왎Slide the steam control forward so the

no steam icon is visible. 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 steam control forward to the no steam

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

down.

Important:

Always empty the water tank when you have finished ironing.

왎After the iron has cooled down, it may be stored in the bag

provided.

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 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 steam 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.

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 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.

IRON TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible cause Solution

Iron is leaking. DISTILLED WATER DO NOT use 100% pure distilled

water, use tap water. In very hard

water areas mix half tap water with

half distilled to reduce hardness; or

use inexpensive bottled spring water.

SOFTENED WATER If you experience leaks or spitting,

change to untreated tap water or

inexpensive bottled spring water.

DO NOT use 100% distilled water.

For more information refer to the full use instructions.

If after using the trouble shooting guide you are still experiencing

problems, do not return the iron to the store, but contact Rowenta

Consumer Service who will be pleased to assist you.
