Setup
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all packaging materials. Ensure all components are present and undamaged.
- Positioning: Place the ironing station on a stable, flat, and heat-resistant surface, such as an ironing board designed for steam generators.
- Filling the Water Tank: Open the water tank cap and fill the tank with clean tap water up to the maximum level indicator. Do not overfill. Close the cap securely.
- Connecting Power: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the appliance's requirements.
Operating Instructions
First Use
Before ironing garments for the first time, allow the iron to heat up for a few minutes. Press the steam trigger several times to prime the pump and release any condensation or impurities from the steam chamber. Iron an old cloth to ensure no residue is transferred to your garments.
Ironing
- Power On: Press the power button on the steam generator. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the appliance is heating up.
- Temperature Selection: Adjust the temperature dial on the iron according to the fabric type you are ironing. Always check the garment's care label.
- Steam Activation: Once the iron reaches the desired temperature (indicator light may change or stop flashing), press the steam trigger located on the iron handle for continuous steam. For a powerful steam boost, press the trigger multiple times or hold it down briefly.
- Vertical Steaming: The iron can be used for vertical steaming of hanging garments, curtains, or drapes. Hold the iron a few centimeters away from the fabric and press the steam trigger.
After Use
- Power Off: Press the power button on the steam generator and then unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet.
- Cool Down: Allow the iron and steam generator to cool completely before handling or storing. This may take up to an hour.
- Empty Water Tank: Empty any remaining water from the tank to prevent limescale buildup and ensure hygiene.
Maintenance
Cleaning the Soleplate
Clean the soleplate with a damp, non-abrasive cloth when the iron is completely cool. For stubborn marks, use a specialized soleplate cleaning stick according to its instructions. Do not use abrasive cleaners, metallic scouring pads, or sharp objects, as these can damage the soleplate.
Descaling
Regular descaling is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your ironing station, especially in areas with hard water. Refer to the specific descaling instructions provided in the full product manual or on the official Rowenta website for your model. Typically, this involves flushing the boiler or using a descaling solution.
Storage
Store the ironing station in a dry, safe place, out of reach of children. Ensure the power cord and steam hose are neatly wrapped and secured to prevent damage. The compact design allows for convenient storage.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No steam output | Water tank empty; iron not hot enough; steam trigger not pressed; limescale buildup. | Fill water tank; wait for iron to reach operating temperature; press steam trigger; descale the appliance. |
| Water leaking from soleplate | Temperature too low for steam generation; overfilling water tank; iron held horizontally for too long without steam. | Increase temperature setting; do not overfill water tank; ensure iron is hot enough before using steam. |
| Iron not heating up | Appliance not plugged in; power button not pressed; electrical outlet malfunction. | Check power connection; press the power button; test the outlet with another appliance. |
| Steam generator making unusual noise | Normal operation of the pump; low water level. | This is often normal. If persistent or loud, check water level and refill if necessary. |
