16 • Anti-Calc System
- Minerals in water can build up in the steam chamber.
The Anti-Calc system contains a special material that
neutralizes the harmful minerals. This system is designed
to extend and maintain the high steam performance of the iron.
The cartridge is not replaceable.
NOTE: Do not use descaling agents in your iron.
17 • After Use
1. Turn the temperature dial to the min setting. Slide the steam
lever to the no steam position.
2. Unplug the appliance.
3. Place the iron on its heel and allow to cool completely.
4. Empty water from the appliance before storing.
We recommend emptying the iron when not in use.
5. To protect the soleplate, we recommend storing iron on its
heel.
18 • Maintenance and Cleaning
Before cleaning ensure that the appliance is unplugged and
completely cooled down.
Never use household cleaners, abrasive cleaning pads or
solvents.
19 • Cleaning the Soleplate
Rowenta soleplates have excellent non-stick properties and can be
wiped clean when cold.
- In normal use a draggy coating may build up on the soleplate
(starch, detergent build-up, 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. The
Rowenta kit is also available through our website:
www.rowentausa.com
- To prevent scratching 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.
