The wire that is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK.
This appliance requires a 13 amp fuse.
Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTA marked fuse, approved to BS 1362, of the same rating must be used.
Always replace the fuse cover after fitting a fuse. The plug must NOT be used if the cover is omitted or lost until a replacement is obtained - make certain that only the correct fuse cover is used and fitted.
For plugs with a detachable fuse cover, the replacement must be the same as the colour insert in the base of the plug, or as directed by the embossed working on the base of the plug.
If the detachable fuse cover is lost, a replacement may be purchased from a Rowenta Service Centre (see enclosed Service Information leaflet).

BEFORE USE

Remove the transparent soleplate protector

Electronic 3-stage automatic switch-off (depending on model)

If the iron is switched on and not moved for a period of 8 minutes while standing on its heel or 30 seconds while standing on the soleplate or lying on its side, an internal safety feature will switch the iron off and the automatic switch-off indicator will blink. Move the appliance sharply to switch it on again.

STARTING UP

Please read the information under POINTS TO NOTE.
- When using the iron for the first time, plug it into the mains electricity supply, set the temperature control to max., do not add any water, stand the iron on its heel and allow it to heat up in the vertical position for 2 minutes. A small amount of smoke may be generated. This is perfectly normal and will disappear after a short period of use.

STEAM IRONING

Adding water

Unplug the iron.
- Push the steam control slide fully to the left to shut off the steam valve (Position "min").
- Push the cover of the water fill opening downwards.
- Hold the iron vertically so that the tank opening is horizontal. Fill with water (containing no additives) up to the max. mark and close the cover.

Replenishing water

Unplug the iron.
- Move the variable steam control fully to the left (Position "min"). Add water
Plug in the iron again and wait until the warning light goes off. Return the steam control slide to the desired steam volume.

3 SELECTING THE IRONING TEMPERATURE

Set the temperature control on the iron using the international dot symbols (control knob/garment label) or by type of fabric:

Laundry Fabric Temperature label regulator
	synthetics • e.g. viscose, polyester
	silk, • • wool
	cotton, • • linen

Before ironing, sort laundry by type of fabric.
For delicate fabrics we recommend testing the ironing temperature on an invisible spot (inside of the hem) before starting to iron.

Connect the iron to the mains electricity supply

Plug in the iron. The warning light goes on and indicates that the iron is heating up. As soon as the light goes out, the set temperature has been reached and the iron is ready for use.

4 ADJUSTABLE STEAM FUNCTION

Set the variable steam control to required steam volume. Steam can only be produced when the thermostat is aligned to or max. (red zone). Allow iron to heat up (light goes out) before activating the variable steam control.

Anti-drip system (depending on model)

The anti-drip system reduces the steam volume when the set temperature is too low. This helps prevent any water dripping from the soleplate.

Iron ready for steam ironing

Steam generation starts when the iron is held horizontally

Steam stop

Steam generation can be interrupted:

by setting the iron on its heel
by pushing the steam control slide fully to the left.

⑤ SPRAY FUNCTION

Laundry can be spray dampened as soon as there is water in the tank.

Press spray button down:

slowly = spray shot

fast and strongly = spray mist

6 SHOT OF STEAM

While ironing, firmly press down the shot of steam button. A strong shot of steam penetrates deeply into the fabric. Allow an interval of at least 4 seconds between steam shots.

Vertical steam jet

The iron can be used vertically. This is ideal for removing wrinkles from clothing on hangers, curtains, wall tapestries, etc.

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. Pour out remaining water. Always return the steam control slide to min and leave the iron to cool off.

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 recommend 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 followed 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 produce steam for about 1 minute. Also activate the shot of steam button several times.

Long-term descending (Long-Life Anticalc System - depending on model)

Your iron is fitted with a special descending system in the water tank, which allows you to use tap water in the tank, regardless of hardness. You can also use distilled water or the Rowenta demineraliser PC010. For distilled water we recommend mixing it in a 1:1 ratio with tap water.

Important:

Always empty the water tank when you have finished ironing!

Always remember:

Battery water and water containing additives (such as starch, perfume or fabric conditioner) may not be used. Such additives can affect the properties of the

steam and, at high temperatures, can form deposits in the steam chamber, which will mark the laundry when they are emitted through the steam vents. For this reason descaling liquids should not be used.
