Rowenta 42449 Instructions For Use Manual page 8

Before attempting to rinse the boiler of your generator, it is essential to leave it to cool for
at least 2 hours in order to avoid any risk of scalding.
If the orange "boiler rinse" light flashes, you can continue ironing normally but remember
to rinse the boiler first, the next time that you use it.
1. Check that the generator is cold and unplugged.
2. Place your steam generator on the edge of your sink.
3. Remove the boiler rinsing cover located on the side of the appliance (15).
4. Using a coin, gently unscrew the boiler rinse plug (16).
5. Place the plastic nozzle ➀ of the rinsing pipe into the hole of the boiler and turn gently to the
right until it locks. The outlet of this nozzle must be positioned over the sink (17).
6. Connect the rubber end ➁ of the rinsing pipe to a cold tap (18).
7. Turn the tap on gently and gradually and let cold water run through the rinsing pipe into the
sink for about 1 minute (19).
8. Switch off the tap and remove the rinsing pipe.
9. Screw back and tighten up the boiler rinse plug with a coin.
10. Put the boiler rinsing cover back in place.
11. The next time you use the generator, hold down the "restart" button
for 2 to 3 seconds to turn off the orange light.
