PREP R TION _________________________________________
1 • What water to use ?
Tap water :
Rowenta irons are designed to be used
with REGUL R
W TER. If your water is very hard,
Rowenta recommends mixing half tap
water with half distilled water which
reduces the hardness.
Softened water :
There are many types of household
water softeners and the water from some
of them may be perfectly acceptable for
use in the steam generator. However,
some types of softeners, particularly
those that use chemicals such as salt,
can cause the appliance to leak or spit
during use, this is notably the case with
filtering jugs. Therefore we would not
recommend using this type of water.
If you experience this type of problem,
we recommend that you try using
untreated tap water or store-bought
distilled water which can be mixed 50%
distilled with 50% untreated tap 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 that can be discarded to avoid
potentially damaging your clothes.

lways remember :
Heat concentrates the elements in water
during evaporation. The types of water
listed below may contain organic waste,
mineral or chemical elements that can
cause spitting, brown
premature wear of the appliance: water
from clothes dryers, scented or softened
water, water from refrigerators, batteries,
air conditioners, rain water, boiled,
filtered or bottled water. These types of
water should not be used in your
ROWENT iron.
2 • Preparing your steam
generator
Place the steam generator on a flat,
stable, horizontal and heat-resistant
surface.
Check that your appliance is unplugged.
Take the water jug and fill it with a
maximum of a litre of water and pour the
water into the water tank without
exceeding the Max level
Unwind the electrical power cord
completely and remove the steam cord
from its housing - fig.2.
Ironing Boards:
Due to the powerful steam output, a
mesh type ironing board must be used
to allow any excess steam to escape and
to avoid steam venting sideways.
