. Fill the iron with tap water up to the maximum level mark (see water usage for more information). Adding water . If you need to add water during ironing, UNPLUG the iron and repeat above steps. . Ensure iron is fully reheated after filling (temperature indicator light goes out) before ironing. . 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. DM 253/273/293 SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE SELECTING THE TEMPERATURE Set the temperature control dial according to the type of fabric you are ironing. Check the fabric's label for appropriate setting. min l synthetics (low temperature) ll silk, wool (medium temperature) lll 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). SETTING VARIABLE STEAM CONTROL min max 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. Steam off Steam generation can be interrupted by standing the iron on its heel or sliding the variable steam control fully to the left. SPRAY SETTING . Ensure there is water in the tank. . Moistening the fabric with the spray will make wrinkle removal easier. . Press the spray button down slowly for a jet or quickly and strongly for a mist. . Do not spray silk, etc. DM 253/273/293 7 BURST OF STEAM M To remove stubborn wrinkles or press in a sharp crease, use the burst of steam button. M Press the button firmly, a strong burst of steam penetrates deep into the fabric. M Leave an interval of at least four seconds between pressing the burst of steam button. M With water in the tank, the burst of steam button can be used as soon as the steam ironing temperature has been reached (lll) Vertical steam M The iron can also be used vertically. This is especially useful for getting creases out of hanging clothes, curtains, draperies, etc. WARNING: Never iron clothes while they are being worn. DRY IRONING M Slide the variable steam control fully to the left. We recommend dry ironing with an empty tank to be sure there are no drips, but it can also be performed with water in the tank. AFTER IRONING M Unplug the iron. Slide the variable steam control completely to the left (the minimum position) and empty any water left in the tank. Leave the iron to cool down. Integrated cord wrap M For easy storage, the cord can be wound loosely around the heel once the iron has cooled down completely. M To protect the soleplate always store the iron on its heel. min max WATER TO USE IN ROWENTA IRONS Tap water WATER TO USE IN ROWENTA IRONS Tap water Rowenta irons are designed to 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 use undiluted inexpensive bottled spring water. Never use 100% distilled water since this can cause the iron to spit and leak. Softened water There are many types of household water softeners and the water from many of them is perfectly acceptable for use in an iron. However, some types of softeners, particularly those that use chemicals such as salt, can cause the iron to leak or spit during use. If you experience this type of problem we recommend that you try using inexpensive bottled spring water or untreated tap water. Never use 100% pure distilled water. Once you have changed water it will take several uses to correct the problem. Rowenta recommends trying the steam function for the first time on an old towel or cloth to avoid damaging your clothes. Iron and other impurities If your water supply contains large amounts of iron or organic matter, these minerals can collect inside the iron and eventually appear as brown stains. If you experience these problems Rowenta recommends using inexpensive bottled spring water. Never use 100% pure distilled water. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE M When cold and unplugged, the iron can be cleaned with a damp cloth and wiped dry. Never use household cleaners or solvents. Cleaning the soleplate Rowenta stainless steel and Titan Plus soleplates have excellent nonstick properties and can simply be wiped clean when cold. . In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the soleplate (starch, detergent buildup, burnt synthetic fibers). This can be easily removed by using the Rowenta Soleplate Cleaning K...
