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.
Slide the variable steam control completely to the left (min.
setting) and empty any water left in the tank. Leave the iron
to cool down.
2. Hold end of cord at plug to slowly guide cord back into reel.
Press cord reel button to retract cord for storage.
3. Store iron on heel (vertically) with steam control lever set to
min.
Cleaning and Maintenance
When 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 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 easily removed by using the Rowenta Soleplate 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.
