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
˾
When cold and unplugged, the iron can be cleaned with a damp
cloth and wiped dry.
Cleaning the soleplate
Rowenta Titan Plus soleplates have excellent non-stick properties and
can be simply 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 Kit or a quality
hot iron soleplate cleaner available at most stores.
˾
Do not use abrasive household cleaners or abrasive cleaning pads.
˾
The soleplate of your iron makes ironing easier. To prevent scratch-
ing of the soleplate, do not iron over sharp objects (zippers, etc.).
Do not place the iron on rough surfaces, e.g. metal iron support,
which may scratch the soleplate.
SELF CLEANING
Your iron is equipped with two self clean functions.
Vapodur Valve:
The patented Vapodur valve ensures that the opening which allows
the water to drip from the water tank into the steam chamber of your
iron remains unaffected by hard water deposits.
To ensure your iron continues to steam efficiently the valve MUST be
opened and closed a few times. This is done by moving the variable
steam control left to right a few times each time you finish ironing.
Steam Chamber Cleaning Function:
This function allows loose mineral deposits and other impurities that
build up inside the iron to be flushed out. This type of self cleaning
only needs to be carried out occasionally and never more than once a
month.
