Frequently Asked Questions - Ultra Steam DR5020 ROWENTA

Why is my steam brush not producing steam?

Check that the appliance is properly plugged in, the water tank is filled and properly locked, and the steam control is held down for about 4 seconds to prime the flow.

How do I fill the water tank?

Unplug the appliance. Push the tank backwards to remove it, remove the cap, fill with tap water to the maximum level, close the cap and put it back in place until it clicks.

Can I use scented or distilled water?

No, never use pure distilled or demineralized water, nor scented, softened, or refrigerator water. Only tap water or a 50/50 mixture with demineralized water for very hard water is recommended.

How do I set the voltage (120V/230V)?

Before plugging the appliance, set the dual voltage selector located above the handle to the correct position (120V in Canada, 230V elsewhere). Never adjust it while the appliance is plugged in.

Can I use the lint brush at the same time as steam?

No, the lint brush should not be used attached to the appliance. It is used separately, cold, to remove lint. Remove it before steaming to avoid discoloration.

How do I descale or clean the steam brush?

After each use, empty the tank and allow to cool. The lint brush can be cleaned with an old cloth by brushing in the opposite direction. No specific descaling is mentioned; use tap water or a mixture to minimize scale build-up.

The steam is spitting or leaking, what should I do?

Make sure the tank is properly locked, the appliance has heated for at least 30 seconds, and the voltage selector is set correctly. If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center.

Can I use the appliance on silk or velvet?

Avoid direct contact of the steam head with silk or velvet. For delicate fabrics, remove the brush and hold the head about 4 cm from the fabric. Test first on a hidden area.

How do I store the appliance after use?

Unplug it, empty any remaining water from the tank, allow it to cool by placing it on its side. Store it in the provided bag (depending on model) or hang it using the hanging hook.

Where can I find spare parts or get my appliance repaired?

Contact an authorized Rowenta after-sales service. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the appliance yourself, as this could cause an electric shock.

3. Use appliance for its intended use only.
4. To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
5. For use in Canada, the voltage selector switch should be placed in the 120 volt position. For use in several other countries, the voltage selector switch may need to be placed in the 230 volt position. Confirm the voltage available at each location before using the appliance. For connection to a 230 volt supply, use a suitable attachment plug adapter of the proper configuration for the power supply receptacle.
6. Do not direct steam at people or animals, or use steamer on garment while they are being worn.

• Remove any packaging from the appliance.
• Do not plug in or turn on until assembly is complete.
• Set the voltage to the correct position.
• Remove the lint pad by pulling it to the bottom.

Dual voltage (depending on model)

The appliance can work on both, 120V or 230V, AC systems. Be sure the dual voltage selector is in the correct voltage position before plugging in. To do this, switch the selector which is above the handle to the right position.

This is a 120V dual voltage appliance and may be used in North America without an electrical converter. An adapter plug may be necessary when using appliance in foreign countries.

VOLTAGE 230 V 120 V

If needed, plug the steambrush into the correct adapter plug for the specific country and plug assembly into electrical outlet.

Warning! Never switch selector while unit is plugged in.

Filling with water

- Your steam brush has been designed to operate using untreated tap water. If your water is very hard (check with your local water authority) it is possible to mix tap water with distilled water in the following proportions:

• 50% untreated tap water
• 50% distilled or demineralised water.

Warning ! Never use 100%, distilled or demineralised water as this can cause the appliance to spit and leak.

• Remove the water tank by pushing it backwards.
• Unplug the rubber stopper.
• Fill the watertank to the top with water and close it securely. Make sure that the buckler is properly pushed in place - as shown below.

• Put the tank into the handle until it snaps in.
  • Completely unwind the power cord.
• Plug in your steam brush.

Important: Heat concentrates the elements contained in water during evaporation. The types of water listed below may contain organic waste, mineral or chemical elements that can cause spitting, brown staining, or premature wear of the appliance: water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, water from refrigerators, air conditioners, rain water, boiled, filtered or bottled water. Also use distilled or demineralised water only as advised above.

Use

• Once the appliance is plugged in, the light will turn on. Set the steam control dial to the desired setting.
  • After approximately 30 seconds, the light will turn off indicating the steambrush has reached working temperature.

• To begin steaming, press the steam button with the steamer head facing away from you, in a vertical position.

Be sure to remove lint pad when steaming as excessive water or steam can cause lint pad color to run.

During use or while unit is heating or cooling, do not rest appliance on its head. Place product on its side on a firm, heat resistant, flat surface, as the head will be hot. As the appliance heats, the housing becomes warm. This is normal.

Steam setting

Set the brush steam output to the type of fabric to be ironed - see table below.

Type of fabric	Setting steam
Cotton / Linen	max.
Silk / Wool
Synthetics	min.

Tips: Check the fabric's label for recommendations. We recommend that you test acrylic, nylon or other synthetic fabrics in an inconspicuous area to ensure these fabrics are not damaged by hot steam. Test fabric for color fastness in an unobtrusive part of the garment (inner seam). Do not touch silk or velvet with steam head. Some articles can be steamed better from inside. Heavier fabrics may require repeated steaming. Exercise caution at all times. For very delicate fabrics, you can remove the brush. To avoid damage to clothes, keep a distance of 1.5 inches between the steam head and the fabrics. We recommend that before the first use or after the appliance has been stored for some time to test the burst of steam.

Steaming clothes

It is normal for a small amount of smoke or steam to be produced the first time the appliance is used. This will quickly disappear.

The Ultra Steam is equipped with a clothes brush.

• To attach the accessory, line it up with the steam head. It locks into position with an audible click.
• Simply pull on the top of the fabric brush to remove it. You can operate the unit with or without the accessory.

Before removing or attaching the steam brush, unplug your appliance and let it cool down.

• Hang the wrinkled article of clothing on a clothes hanger.
• Pull the clothing tight with one hand.

• Gently press the fabric brush against the clothing and move the steambrush down the fabric. Keep pressing the burst of steam button.
- The combination of steam and fabric brush will gently remove the wrinkles.
• After treatment, let the garment cool down on the hanger before wearing.

Do not allow steambrush to run dry.

Lint pad

The lint pad must not be used when attached to appliance.

Threads, lint and hair can easily be removed with the lint pad by brushing the clothes slowly from left to right.

The pad can be cleaned by brushing in the opposite direction right to left on a scrap of old cloth.

Warning: Never touch the steam head until it cools completely.

- Remove the lint pad from the steam brush by grasping on both sides and pulling downwards. The lint pad should slide right off of the brush, and clamp back on after use.

- For storage, attach the lint pad to the steam brush by lining up the slots of the brush with the slots of the lint pad. Gently push the top of the lint pad into place until it snaps in.
