MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the iron cool down before
maintenance and cleaning.

13 • Cleaning the iron
l
When the appliance has cooled down, wipe the iron down with a damp cloth or sponge. A non
abrasive cleaning agent can be used.
Alternatively the ROWENTA cleaning kit ZD100 D1 can be used. After cleaning the soleplate, use
p
the Self Clean function to remove residues of the cleaner from the steam holes.
n
IMPORTANT Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents or objects to clean the
soleplate and other parts of the iron.
14 • Self Clean
WARNING : Do not use descaling agents even if advertised for steam irons. They will
permanently damage your iron.
The Self Clean function flushes dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
1. Fill the water tank with untreated tap water up to the max mark and heat the iron to the
••• temperature. Switch off the steam.
2. Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink horizontally.
3. Push the self clean button for 1 minute fig.13a-13b and shake the iron gently: steam will
now begin to build up. After a few seconds water will emerge from the soleplate, rinsing
dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
4. Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again. Wait until the remaining water has
evaporated.
5. Unplug from the mains and allow the iron to fully cool down. When cool, the soleplate
can be wiped with a damp cloth.
TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard,
clean the iron weekly.
