Rowenta IS8000 Instructions For Use Manual page 5

Use
Warning: Never steam clothes while they are being worn.
Hose and steam head will become hot during use. This is
normal. Use caution and avoid prolonged contact.
• Place steamer on a flat, level surface. Do not block vents
on bottom of unit.
• Plug in cord and activate the power switch by hand
or foot. The power indicator light will illuminate once
steamer is turned on.
• Wait for the steam to come out. It will take approximately
90 seconds.
• Put garment onto the hanger head. Grasp the steam
head with the steam vents pointing away from you. Start
steaming by touching material lightly with steaming head
and moving in an up/down vertical motion. Begin at the
bottom of the garment and move in an upward direction.
Steam with hose in an upright position. If steaming in
a low position near floor, straighten hose up and out
FREQUENTLY to keep clear of condensation. This allows
any condensation to flow back into the steamer.
• During operation, the steamer hose may make a gurgling
noise. This is a normal result of condensation. If it begins
to gurgle, extend hose up and out to move excess
moisture back into the base.
DO NOT ALLOW STEAMER TO RUN DRY
Be sure unit is unplugged and completely cool before
attaching accessories.
Fabric Brush
• Gently brush the area to be steamed with the grain or
nap of the fabric.
• Remove the fabric brush once unit is unplugged and
completely cool. Remove it by pressing on the release
button on top of the brush while pulling it forward.
The fabric brush opens the weave of the
fabric for better steam penetration.
• Be sure unit is unplugged and
completely cool before attaching
accessories.
• Attach the fabric brush to the steam
head by lining up the bottom of the
brush with the bottom of the steam
head. Gently push the top of the brush
into place on the steam head until it
clicks into place.
