Dry Ironing; After Ironing; Cleaning And Maintenance; Points To Note - Rowenta PROFESSIONAL LUXE Manual

Vertical steam jet
The iron can be used vertically. This is ideal for removing wrinkles from clothing
on hangers, curtains, wall tapestries, etc (treat polyacrylic fabrics with care).
Important!
Never steam or iron clothing that is being worn.

DRY IRONING

Push the variable steam control fully to the left (Position "min").

AFTER IRONING

Unplug the iron. Set the variable steam control to max. and empty any water left in
tank. Then set the variable steam control to min. and leave the iron to cool down.
Iron with cord storage
For storage the supply cord can be wrapped around the integrated cord
storage feature once the iron has cooled off completely.
Always store the iron on its heel to protect the soleplate.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

When necessary use a damp cloth to clean the cool iron, then wipe dry.
Read the information in POINTS TO NOTE.
Cleaning the soleplate
For the stainless steel soleplate we recommend the Rowenta soleplate cleaner
PC05. This is available from Rowenta dealers.
The high quality soleplate of your iron makes ironing easier and protects your
laundry. When not being used the iron should always be placed on its heel.
Do not rest it on a rough surface. Do not scratch or scrape the soleplate. Do
not use strong or abrasive detergents for cleaning.
Self-clean function
To clean the steam chamber it is advisable to activate the iron's self-clean
function every two weeks. If the water in your area is very hard we recom-
mend weekly cleaning. To do this fill the tank to half and heat the iron on the
maximum temperature. Hold iron horizontally over the sink, push the steam
regulator slide beyond the max. position to "self clean" and hold.
Initially a great deal of steam will be expelled. After a few seconds this is fol-
lowed by steam and water, which rinses dirt and scale particles out of the
steam chamber. Release the self-clean button after about 1 minute on position
min. Unplug the iron, allow it to cool off completely and wipe the soleplate
with a damp cloth. Plug in the iron again, allow it to heat up and hold it over
the sink for a moment to release steam.
The self-clean function helps prevent the drip opening in the steam chamber
from becoming blocked or affected by scale. Keep the function working well
by opening and closing the valve several times each time you have used the
iron (activate the steam control slide).

POINTS TO NOTE

If the iron has not been used for a long time (e.g. several weeks) the steam
channels should be cleaned and any deposits removed from the iron. To do
this, hold the iron horizontally before you start to use it and allow it to pro-
duce steam for about 1 minute. Also activate the shot of steam button several
times.
