IMPORTANT The iron takes longer to cool down than to heat up. We recommend
that you start with fabrics to be ironed at a low temperature. For mixed fabrics set the
temperature for the most delicate fabric.
TIP: Always spray starch onto the reverse side of the fabric to be ironed.
3 • Dry ironing
Set the iron on for an ironing without steam, ideal for delicates or perfect finishes.
4 • Steam ironing
(Autosteam & Steamforce)
Set the iron on for steam ironing. Your iron is equipped with an integrated compact steam
generator which pushes up to 50% more steam into the fabrics. The steam quantity and the
temperature will adjust automatically to the selected fabric.
5 • Shot of steam
(from temperature setting (••) upwards)
Press the shot of steam button to generate a powerful jet of steam concentrated at the tip
This precision shot allows steam concentration in the front area to remove stubborn creases.
Wait a few seconds between each shot before pressing the button again.
IMPORTANT Leave an interval of a few seconds between each shot and wait until the
flow of steam has finished before standing the iron on its heel.
6 • Vertical shot of steam
(from temperature setting (••) upwards)
Hold the iron vertically and press the shot of steam button to remove creases from suits,
jackets, skirts, hanging curtains etc.

pressing the button again.
IMPORTANT Never direct the steam at persons or animals!
TIP Hold the iron 10 to 20 centimetres away from the garment to avoid burning
delicate fabrics.

With the Manual mode you can have a steam rate up to 65g/min by removing the
movement sensor (steam on demand). Select the "MAX/LINEN" setting

12 • Storing
Allow the appliance to cool down before winding the cord around the heel. Store the iron on
its heel in a dry and safe place

placed down on the soleplate.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the iron cool down before
maintenance and cleaning.
13 • Anti-scale system
Your iron contains an anti-scale cartridge to reduce scale deposits.
This considerably prolongs the operational life of your iron.
.
fig.8
The anti-scale cartridge is an integral part of the water tank and does not need to be replaced.
14 • Cleaning the iron
When the appliance has cooled down, wipe the iron down with a damp cloth or sponge. A non
abrasive cleaning agent can be used.
Alternatively the ROWENTA cleaning kit ZD100 D1 can be used. After cleaning the soleplate,
use the Self Clean function to remove residues of the cleaner from the steam holes.
IMPORTANT Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents or objects to clean the
soleplate and other parts of the iron.
15 • Self Clean
WARNING : Do not use descaling agents even if advertised for steam irons. They will
permanently damage your iron.
The Self Clean function flushes dirt and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
1. Fill the water tank with untreated tap water up to the max mark and heat the iron to the •••
temperature. Switch off the steam.
2. Unplug the iron and hold it over a sink horizontally.
3. Push the self clean button for 1 minute

now begin to build up. After a few seconds water will emerge from the soleplate, rinsing dirt
and scale particles out of the steam chamber.
4. Plug in the iron and allow the iron to heat up again. Wait until the remaining water has
evaporated.
5. Unplug from the mains and allow the iron to fully cool down. When cool, the soleplate can
be wiped with a damp cloth.
TIP Use the Self Clean function approx. every 2 weeks. If the water is very hard,
clean the iron weekly.
