Self Clean
Warning! Do not use descaling agents. They can damage the
lining of the steam chamber.
Warning: Doing this will cause steam and hot water to be
ejected from the soleplate. Take all proper precautions and hold
iron away from body.
• Move the iron gently back and forth and side to side until all
water has run through plate.
• Carefully wipe all water and material from the soleplate with an
old towel, as the water and minerals can stain the soleplate
(although this has no effect on glide of performance.)
Warning: Iron and soleplate may still be very hot. Exercise care
while wiping.
• Place iron on heel and leave to cool.
Before using iron after self cleaning, test steam and burst of
steam on an old towel or cloth than can be discarded.
After ironing
1. Turn the temperature dial to the min setting. Slide the steam
lever to the no steam position
2. Unplug the appliance.
3. Place the iron on its heel and allow to cool completely.
4. Empty water from the appliance before storing.
We recommend emptying the iron when not in use.
5. To protect the soleplate, we recommend storing iron on its heel.
Cleaning and Maintenance
When cold and unplugged, the iron can be cleaned with a damp
cloth and wiped dry.
Never use household cleaners or solvents.
Cleaning the soleplate
Rowenta soleplates have excellent non-stick properties and can
be wiped clean when cold.
• In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the soleplate
(starch, detergent build-up, burnt synthetic fibers).
This can be easily removed by using the Rowenta Soleplate Kit
or a quality hot iron soleplate cleaner available at most stores.
The Rowenta kit is also available through our website:
www.rowentausa.com
This feature allows loose mineral deposits and
other impurities to be flushed from the soleplate.
Self Clean should be carried out occasionally and at
least once a month.
• Fill the iron with tap water to the max mark on the
water tank.
• Be sure that variable steam lever is set to mini-
mum.
• Stand iron on heel and plug in.
• Set thermostat to ••• setting.
• Once heated, unplug iron.
• Hold iron horizontally over the sink with the sole-
plate pointing away from body.
• Move the variable steam lever completely to the right
and hold in the self clean position for one minute.
