IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
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, emptying iron or 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. 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 12-ampere
cord should be used. Cords rated for less amperage may
overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that
it can not be pulled or tripped over.
3. After the iron has cooled, wrap the cord loosely around
the handle.

STEAM IRONING

Ensure the iron is unplugged.

completely to the left.
Hold the appliance upright so

that the water filling inlet is
horizontal.
Fill the iron with tap water to the

maximum level mark (see water
usage for more information).
Adding water
If you need to add water during
M
ironing, unplug the iron and
repeat above steps.
Ensure iron is fully reheated after
M
filling (temperature indicator
light goes out) before ironing.
SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE
To avoid damage to clothes from
dust or dirt that may collect in the
iron, we recommend that for the
m
first use or after the iron has been
i
n
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 appropiate setting.
