After use
• After using the steamer, switch the power switch to the
off position (power indicator light will go out) and unplug
the appliance. Empty water container when not in use.
• Hang steam head in an upright position in hanger head
when not in use.
• Do not carry the steamer by the water container handle.
Instead roll unit to storage area or carry from underneath
the main unit.
Warning: Never touch the steam head until it cools completely.
Cleaning
Remove water container and clean the main unit with a
damp cloth. To maintain maximum performance, your steamer must be descaled occasionally. The descaling intervals
will depend on the water quality and the frequency of use.
The unit should be descaled at least once a year or every
100 hours of use.
For descaling proceed as follows:
1. Unplug the unit and remove water container from main
unit by releasing container lock and pulling up.
2. Fill it with fresh water and shake vigorously to remove
any scale. Pour out the water and repeat if necessary.
3. Purchase a quality decalcifier agent and follow the
instructions of the manufacturer for the proper ratio of
the mixture to water and use.
4. After filling the water container turn it up and down to
descale.
5. Attach reservoir to unit, plug in and switch on.
6. Let the appliance run until the water container is almost
empty and do not steam any clothing with this mixture.
7. Unplug and detach the water container. Rinse it with
fresh water.
8. Fill water container with fresh water and repeat steps 5
and 6.
Note: If after descaling you believe that there is still buildup in the
boiler, repeat steps 1–8.

Tips
• Check the fabric’s label for recommendations.
• 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 the underside.
• If steaming in a low position near floor, straighten hose
up and out frequently to clear condensation.
If hose becomes clogged, it will make a gurgling noise.
• Heavier fabrics may require repeated steaming.
• Exercise caution at all times.
Use
Warning: Never steam clothes while they are being worn.
Hose and steam head will become hot during use.
This is normal. Use caution and avoid prolonged contact.
• Place steamer on a flat, level surface. Do not block vents
on bottom of unit.
• Plug in cord and activate the power switch by hand or
foot. The power indicator light will illuminate once steamer is turned on.
• Wait for the steam to come out. It will take approximately
3 minutes.
• Put garment onto the hanger head. Grasp the steam head
with the steam vents pointing away from you. Start steaming by touching material lightly with steaming head
and moving in an up/down vertical motion. Begin at the
bottom of the garment and move in an upward direction.
Steam with hose in an upright position. This allows any
condensation to flow back into the steamer.
• During operation, the steamer hose may make a gurgling
noise. This is a normal result of condensation. If it begins
to gurgle, extend hose up and out to move excess moisture back into the base.
DO NOT ALLOW STEAMER TO RUN DRY
Accessories (depending on model)
Reminder: When using accessories steam only in an up and
down vertical motion. Never use steamer in a horizontal
position and never tilt it in a backward position.
Before using any of the accessories on upholstery or garments, be sure to consult the manufacturer regarding their
recommendations. We also recommend testing on an unobtrusive area.
Lint Pad
The lint pad removes hair, lint and animal
fur for a professional finish.
• To use the lint pad, slowly brush the clo-
thing with the grain or nap of the fabric.
• The pad can be cleaned by brushing in
the opposite direction. We recommend
cleaning on an old cloth that can be
discarded.
(Note: The lint pad does not attach to the steamer.)
Upholstery Brush
The upholstery brush is used to aid steam
penetration into difficult, heavy fabrics for
faster results.
• Be sure unit is unplugged and complete-
ly cool before attaching accessories.
• Attach the upholstery brush to the
steam head by lining up the bottom of
the brush with the bottom of the steam
head. Gently push the top of the brush
into place on the steam head until it
clicks into place.
• Gently brush the area to be steamed with the grain or nap
of the fabric.
• Remove the upholstery brush once unit is unplugged and
completely cool. Remove it by pressing on the release button on top of brush while pulling it forward.
Fabric Brush
The fabric brush opens the weave of the
fabric for better steam penetration.
• Be sure unit is unplugged and complete-
ly cool before attaching accessories.
• Attach the fabric brush to the steam
head by lining up the bottom of the
brush with the bottom of the steam
head. Gently push the top of the brush
into place on the steam head until it
clicks into place.
• Gently brush the area to be steamed with the grain or nap
of the fabric.
• Remove the upholstery brush once unit is unplugged and
completely cool. Remove it by pressing on the release button on top of brush while pulling it forward.
Before use
• Please read the instructions for use and
Important Safeguards carefully.
• Remove any packaging from the
appliance.
• Do not plug in or turn on until assembly
is complete.
• Insert the cord clips at each end of the
central tube and push until they are
firmly fixed.
• Assemble the support rod by screw-
ing the individual tubes together.
• Insert support rod in the hole on top
of the main unit and screw it in a
clockwise direction by hand until it is
firmly in place.
• Attach the hanger head to the rod
and secure by pressing down until it
clicks in place.
• Slide metal coil and black bolt cover
up to expose bolt on hose. Attach
hose to the connect point and tighten bolt firmly in a counter clockwise
direction with a 1 1/4‘‘ wrench. Slide coil
and cover back over bolt.
Filling with water
• The steamer can be used with REGULAR TAP WATER (up
to 12 grains of hardness). If your water is harder than this,
Rowenta recommends mixing half tap water with half distilled water which reduces the hardness; or just use inexpensive bottled spring water; or 100% distilled water.
• Battery water and water containing additives (such as
starch, perfume or fabric conditioner) may not be used in
the steamer. Such additives can affect the properties of the
steam and can form deposits.
• Be sure that unit is unplugged. Remove water container
from main unit by releasing container lock and pulling up.
Unscrew the cover and fill. Do not fill above the max line
on the water tank. Water container capacity is 3.4 quarts.

hose or after the appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged
in any manner. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble or attempt to repair the appliance. Return appliance to nearest authorized service center for examination, repair or adjustment.
4. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water emitting from
steam vents, check appliance before each use by holding it away
from body and operating.

may result in water discharge.
6. Incorrect reassembly or repair could cause a risk of fire, electric
shock, or injury to persons when the appliance is used.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. This is a 1500 watt appliance. To avoid a circuit overload, do not
operate a high wattage appliance on the same circuit.
2. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance. 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. Do not cut or attempt to extend the steaming hose.
