Filling the water tank
IMPORT NT: Never use water that contains additives (starch, perfume, aro-
matic substances, softener, etc) in the steamer. dditives such as these can
affect the properties of the steam and lead to the formation of deposits.
• Ensure that the steamer is unplugged. Remove the water tank from the
base of the appliance by pulling the handle upwards (fig. 7). Unscrew
the tank cap and fill the tank. (fig. 8). Maximum capacity is indicated by
the "max" mark.
• The steamer must be used with T P W TER. If the water in your area is
hard, Rowenta recommends that you mix half tap water and half distilled
water, which reduces the hardness. You can also use bottled spring water.
• fter closing the cap, turn the tank down and hold it by the handle. Check
out that no water is leaking through the cap.
• Place the water tank on the base (fig. 9).
USE
Warning: Never steam a garment while it is being worn.
The flexible pipe and the end of the steam head can become extremely hot
during use. This is perfectly normal. Be careful and avoid any prolonged
contact.
• Only operate the steamer on the floor clear of any materials which may
obstruct the base of the steamer (flat and horizontal surface). Do not obs-
truct the openings on the lower part of the appliance. This device should
not be used on very thick carpets or rugs.
• Undo the Velcro strip and completely unwind the electrical cord.
