holds 128 ounces.
IMPORT NT
Never use water that contains additives (starch, per-
fume, aromatic substances, softener, etc) in the stea-
mer. dditives such as these can affect the properties of
the steam and lead to the formation of deposits.
• The steamer is designed to 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; or just use inexpensive
bottled spring water.
• fter closing the lid, place the water tank on the base of
the appliance.
Tips
• We recommend checking the garment care label for manufacturer recommenda-
tions. We also recommend testing the garment on an unobtrusive area such as an
inner seam.
• Read the recommendations for the maintenance of the fabrics on the labels of the
clothing to be steamed.
• Test the strength of the colour of the fabric on an area of the garment that is not visi-
ble (inside of a hem).
• void contact between the steam head and silk or velvet.
• Certain garments are smoothed more easily on the reverse side.
• If you are using the steam head at a position close to the ground, raise the hose fre-
quently in order to avoid the formation of condensation.
You may hear a gurgling noise if the hose is obstructed in any way.
• Heavy fabrics may need to be steamed longer.
• Be careful at all times.
Use
Warning: Never steam a garment while it is being worn.
The hose and steam head may become hot during use.
This is perfectly normal. Be careful and avoid any pro-
longed contact.
• Only operate the steamer on the floor clear of any mate-
rials which may obstruct the base of the steamer (flat
and horizontal surface). Do not obstruct the openings on
the lower part of the appliance.
• If necessary, expand the poles to the desired height by
unlocking them, pulling them gently and locking them
again. Unlock the four clips while keeping integrated
hanger in your hand.
• Plug in the power cord and turn on the power using the
foot operated pedal. The power light will illuminate. The
steamer is operating.
