After Ironing; Cleaning And Maintenance - Rowenta AUTOSTEAM DZ1700 Instruction Manual

NOT DZ1700 1103480249
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.
Vapodur Valve
To ensure the iron continues to steam efficiently, open and
close the valve a few times after each use. This is done by
moving the variable steam control lever left to right a few
times.

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 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.
- 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.
