WATER RECOMMENDATIONS 1 · Tap water Rowenta irons are designed to be used with REGULAR TAP WATER (up to 12 grains of hardness). If your water is harder than this, Rowenta recommends mixing half tap water with half bottled spring water which reduces the hardness; or just use bottled spring water. Never use 100 % distilled water as this can cause the iron to spit and leak. 3 DZ9080 US 1103898398 10/05/06 11:00 Page 4 2 · Softened water There are many types of household water softeners and the water from many of them is perfectly acceptable for use in an iron. However, some types of softeners, particularly those that use chemicals such as salt, can cause the appliance to leak or spit during use. If you experience this type of problem, we recommend that you try using bottled spring water or 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 damaging your clothes. 3 · Iron and other impurities If your water supply contains large amounts of iron or organic matter, these minerals can collect inside the appliance and eventually appear as brown stains. If you experience these problems Rowenta recommends using bottled spring water. ALWAYS REMEMBER: Battery water and water containing additives (such as starch, perfume or fabric conditioner condensed water from driers) may not be used. Such additives can affect the properties of the steam and, at high temperatures, can form deposits in the steam chamber, which will mark the laundry when they are emitted through the steam vents. When the temperature control is set to a steam setting vertical steam can be used. To use feature, hold iron vertically with the tip tilted forward slightly. Press the burst of steam button repeatedly while moving iron up the garment from bottom to the top. If vertical steam output starts to decrease tilt iron forward to a horizontal position and then back to vertical to continue. * depending on model 7 DZ9080 US 1103898398 10/05/06 11:00 Page 8 WARNING !Never direct steam at persons or animals. 11 · Spray Setting This feature is ideal for stubborn wrinkles or set in creases. Do not spray silk. 12 · Anti-Drip System* In order to produce steam, all irons require a high temperature. If the soleplate is not hot enough some of the water will not turn to steam and can spit or leak from the soleplate. The Anti-Drip system automatically switches off the steam when ironing at low temperatures to prevent spitting. 13 · 3-Way Smart Automatic Shut-Off* 8 min 30 sec AUTO OFF If your iron is equipped with Auto-Off and the iron is not moved while plugged in, an internal safety switch will turn it off. It will turn off in 8 minutes if left vertically or in 30 seconds if left on its soleplate or tipped over. The white light on the LED temperature dial will flash when the Automatic Shut-Off feature has engaged. They can damage the lining of the steam chamber. * depending on model 8 DZ9080 US 1103898398 10/05/06 11:00 Page 9 This feature allows loose mineral deposits and other impurities to be flushed from the soleplate. - Hold iron horizontally over the sink with the soleplate pointing away from body.
