Before Use - Please read all of the Instructions for Use and the Important Safety Guards carefully. - Remove all packaging from the iron. - Remove the soleplate protector. - It is normal for a small amount of smoke and a light odor to be produced the first time it is used. This will quickly disappear. - Particles may emit from iron during first use. They are not harmful and sould disppear after the iron has been alowed.
Water Recommendations 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.
Steam Ironing WARNING ! • Never iron or steam clothes while they are being worn. • Before ironing for the first time fill iron and allow to heat. • The iron should be allowed to emit steam for 1 to 2 minutes while pressing the burst of steam button a few times to remove any impurities. This should also be done if iron is not used regularly. Steam is only produced when the temperature dial is set to the shaded area (after •• setting).
Spray Setting - This feature is ideal for stubborn wrinkles or set in creases. - Ensure there is water in the tank then press the spray button. - Do not spray silk. 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 switchez off the steam when ironing at low temperatures to prevent spitting.
Warning! Iron and soleplate may still be very hot. Exercise care while wiping. - Place iron on heel and leave to cool. Before using iron after self cleaning, test steam and burst of steam on an old towel or cloth than can be discarted. Vapodur Valve To ensure the iron continues to steam effciently, open and close the valve a few times after each use. This is done by moving th variable steam control lever left to right a few times. After Ironing 1. Turn temp dial to min. setting and then unplug the iron.
