Setting Variable Steam Control, Steam off | Rowenta DE 873 instruction

To avoid 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 unobtrusive part of the garment (inner seam).

SETTING VARIABLE STEAM CONTROL

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 by standing the iron on its heel or sliding the variable steam control fully to the left.
