Setup and First Use

Unpacking

Carefully remove the iron and all accessories from the packaging. Retain the packaging for future storage or transport. Inspect the iron for any signs of damage. If any damage is found, do not use the iron and contact customer support.

Preparing for Use

Before first use, it is recommended to iron an old piece of fabric to ensure any manufacturing residues are removed from the soleplate. This also helps to prime the steam system.

Filling the Water Tank

1. Ensure the iron is unplugged from the power outlet and cooled down.
2. Open the water tank inlet cover, typically located near the handle.
3. Fill the water tank with tap water up to the 'MAX' indicator line. The large, transparent water tank allows for easy visibility of the water level.
4. Close the water tank inlet cover securely to prevent leaks during use.

Steam Functions

• Continuous Steam: Once the iron reaches the desired temperature, steam will be generated automatically when the steam setting is activated. The 430-hole Microsteam HD Profile soleplate ensures even steam distribution for efficient wrinkle removal.
• Steam Boost: For stubborn wrinkles, press the steam boost button to release a powerful burst of 210 g/min steam. This feature is particularly effective on heavy fabrics.
• Vertical Steaming: The iron can be used in a vertical position to steam hanging garments, drapes, or upholstery. Hold the iron a few inches away from the fabric and press the steam boost button.

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning the Soleplate

To clean the soleplate, ensure the iron is unplugged and completely cool. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner if necessary. Do not use abrasive pads or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the soleplate coating.

Descaling / Anti-Calc System

The Rowenta DW8350 features an integrated anti-calc system to reduce mineral build-up. For more thorough cleaning of scale, the mechanism can be popped out. Refer to the specific instructions in the full product manual for detailed descaling procedures to maintain optimal steam performance.

Storage

After use, unplug the iron and allow it to cool completely. Empty any remaining water from the tank. Store the iron in an upright position to prevent soleplate damage and water leakage.
