FILLING THE BOILER WHILE IN USE
Caution: NEVER UNSCREW THE BOILER CAP WHILE IRON IS PRODUCING STEAM AND BOILER IS UNDER PRESSURE.
1.Before opening the boiler, ensure that there is no steam inside. To do this, press the steam button and keep it pressed until there is absolutely no more steam.
2.Turn the unit to off (see section Turning On and Off) and unplug from outlet.
3.Slowly unscrew the boiler cap. Using a water pitcher, fill with 33 oz. of water. Do not fill water tank past the base of the boiler cap thread. Be sure that water does not spill over. If this occurs remove the excess water.
4.Replace the boiler cap and screw it on tightly.
5.Plug back in to electrical outlet.
AFTER IRONING
1.Turn the unit off. (Consult section Turning On and Off.)
2.Unplug the appliance.
3.Place the iron on the iron rest and allow to cool completely which will take approximately 1 hour.
4.Once cold, empty water from the appliance before storing. We recommend emptying the boiler when not in use.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning ensure that the appliance is unplugged and completely cooled down.
The iron can be cleaned with a damp cloth and wiped dry.
Never use household cleaners, descalers or solvents.
CLEANING THE SOLEPLATE
MIn 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.
MTo 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. Place the iron on its rest on top of the base of the unit.
MAlways put the iron with the soleplate down on the iron rest, never place on its heel.
