Dry Ironing

To iron without steam, slide the steam control lever to the off position. We recommend dry ironing with an empty tank. Set the temperature for the type of material to be ironed.

Anti Calc System

Minerals in water can build up in the steam chamber. The Anti Calc system contains a special resin that neutralizes the harmful minerals. This system is designed to extend and maintain the high steam performance of the iron. The cartridge is not replaceable.

Note: Do not use descaling agents in your iron.

Anti-Drip System

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 anti-drip system automatically switches off the steam when ironing at low temperatures to prevent spitting.

After Ironing

1.Turn the temperature dial to the min setting. Slide the steam lever to the no steam position.

2.Unplug the appliance.

3.Place the iron on its heel and allow to cool completely.

4.Empty water from the appliance before storing. We recommend emptying the iron when not in use.

5.To protect the soleplate, we recommend storing iron on its heel.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before cleaning ensure that the appliance is unplugged and completely cooled down.

Never use household cleaners, abrasive cleaning pads or solvents.

Cleaning the Soleplate

Rowenta soleplates have excellent non-stick properties and can be wiped clean when cold.

In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the soleplate (starch, detergent build-up, 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. The Rowenta kit is also available through our website: www.rowentausa.com

To prevent scratching 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.
