IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

When using your iron, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

Read all instructions before using the iron.

1.Use iron only for its intended use.

2.To protect against a risk of electric shock, do not immerse the iron in water or other liquids.

3.The iron should always be turned to Minimum (Min) before plugging or unplugging from outlet. Never yank cord to disconnect from outlet; instead, grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

4.Do not allow cord to touch hot surfaces. Let iron cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around iron when storing.

5.Always disconnect iron from electrical outlet when filling iron with water or emptying and when not in use.

6.Do not operate iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble the iron, take it to the nearest authorized Rowenta Appliance Service Center for examination and repair. Incorrect reassembly can cause a risk of electric shock when the iron is used.

7.Close supervision is necessary for any appliance being used by or near children. Do not leave iron unattended while connected or on an ironing board.

8.Burns can occur from touching hot metal parts, hot water or steam. Use caution when you turn a steam iron upside down – there may be hot water in the reservoir.

9.The use of accessory attachments is not recommended by Rowenta Appliance Company and may result in fire, electric shock or personal injury.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

1.This is a 1400 watt appliance (check rating on iron heel). To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.

2.If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, a 12ampere cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it cannot be pulled or tripped over.

3.Your Rowenta appliance is intended for household use only.

SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE

m

i

n

To avoid damage to clothes from dust or dirt that may collect in the iron, we recommend that for the first use or after the iron has been stored for some time that you first iron an old cloth, testing both the steam and burst of steam feature.

Set the temperature control dial according to the type of fabric you are ironing. Check the fabric's label for appropriate setting.

synthetics (low temperature) ●● silk, wool (medium temperature)

●●●cotton, linen (high temperature)

To avoid an automatic switch off while the iron is heating up, always keep the iron on its heel. Start at low temperature and graduate to high temperature. For delicate fabrics we recommend carrying out a test on an unobstrusive part of the garment (inner seam).

MSlowly pull cord out of reel by plug. Pull cord until it is fully extended being sure not to yank cord.

MPlug into outlet. The pilot light will turn on to indicate the iron is heating. When the pilot light goes out the iron is ready to use.

Warning:

Never iron clothes while they are being worn.

Set the variable steam control to required steam volume. Steam can only be produced when the thermostat is in the red cotton/linen zone. Allow iron to heat up (light goes out) before activating the variable steam control. Reduce or set variable steam to min. when ironing at low temperatures to avoid water leakage or spitting.

Iron ready for steam ironing

Steam is produced as soon as the iron is held horizontally.
