The iron soleplate
In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the
soleplate (starch, detergent buildup, burnt synthetic fibers).
This can be easily removed by using the Rowenta Soleplate
Cleaning Kit or a quality hot iron soleplate cleaner available
at most stores.
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. Place the iron on its rest on top of the base of
the unit.
Always put the iron with the soleplate down on the iron
rest, never place on its heel.
The base unit
The iron and base can be cleaned with a damp cloth and
wiped dry.
Never use household cleaners, descalers or solvents.
RINSING OUT THE BOILER
Be careful:
To ensure optimum steam performance, the boiler must
be rinsed out after every 10 uses. If your tap water is
hard, increase the frequency.
Do not use any descaling agents as they could damage
the generator.
1. Generator must be empty, unplugged and completely
cold.
Allow to sit 2 hours before rinsing boiler.
2. Place your steam generator on the edge of your kitchen
sink.
