Configuració

1. Desembalatge

Carefully remove the iron from its packaging. Remove any labels or protective films from the soleplate or body of the iron. Retain the packaging for future storage or transport.

2. Preparació per al primer ús

Before the first use, it is recommended to iron an old piece of fabric (e.g., an old towel) for a few minutes to remove any manufacturing residues from the soleplate. This may produce a slight odor or smoke, which is normal and will dissipate quickly.

3. Omplir el dipòsit d'aigua

  1. Assegureu-vos que la planxa estigui desendollada de la presa de corrent.
  2. Obriu la tapa d'entrada del dipòsit d'aigua, que normalment es troba a prop de la nansa.
  3. Fill the water tank with tap water up to the 'MAX' fill line. Do not overfill.
  4. Tanqueu bé la tapa d'entrada del dipòsit d'aigua.

Nota: For optimal performance and to prolong the life of your iron, use regular tap water. If your tap water is very hard, you may mix it 50/50 with distilled water. Do not use 100% distilled water, scented water, or water containing additives.

4. Connexió a l'alimentació

Plug the power cord into a suitable, grounded electrical outlet (120V AC). The indicator light will illuminate, indicating the iron is heating up.

Operating the Iron

1. Configuració de la temperatura

Turn the temperature dial to the desired setting based on the fabric type. Refer to the garment's care label for recommended ironing temperatures. The indicator light will turn off when the selected temperature is reached.

  • Temperatura baixa: Sintètics, seda
  • Temperatura mitjana: Llana
  • Alta temperatura: Cotó, Lli

Consell: Always start with lower temperatures for delicate fabrics and gradually increase if needed. Iron fabrics requiring lower temperatures first.

2. Planxat en sec

For dry ironing, ensure the steam control is set to the 'OFF' position. Select the desired temperature and wait for the iron to heat up. Iron garments as usual.

3. Planxat amb vapor

Steam ironing is effective for most fabrics, especially cotton and linen. Ensure the water tank is filled and the temperature dial is set to a steam-compatible setting (usually indicated by a steam symbol on the dial, typically medium to high heat).

  • Vapor continu: Once the iron reaches the set temperature, adjust the steam control to the desired steam level. Move the iron over the fabric.
  • Tret de vapor: For stubborn wrinkles, press the steam shot button. This delivers a powerful burst of steam. Wait a few seconds between shots to allow the iron to regenerate steam.
  • Cocció al vapor vertical: The steam shot can also be used for vertical steaming of hanging garments or drapes. Hold the iron vertically a few inches from the fabric and press the steam shot button.

4. Funció de polvorització

Press the spray button to lightly mist the fabric with water, helping to smooth out difficult creases. This function can be used with or without steam.

5. Funció d'apagada automàtica

For safety and energy saving, the iron is equipped with an auto-off feature. If left motionless horizontally for 30 seconds or vertically for 8 minutes, the heating element will automatically shut off. The indicator light will flash to signal this. To restart heating, simply move the iron.

Manteniment i cura

1. Després de cada ús

  1. Desendolla la planxa i deixa que es refredi completament.
  2. Buidar l'aigua restant del dipòsit d'aigua.
  3. Set the steam control to the 'DRY' or 'OFF' position.

2. Neteja de la sola

Per netejar la sola, assegureu-vos que la planxa estigui freda i desendollada. Netegeu la sola amb un drap.amp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use metallic scouring pads or harsh abrasives, as these can scratch the soleplate.

3. Anti-Calc System (Self-Clean)

The Rowenta DW1040 iron features an integrated anti-calc system to reduce scale buildup. For optimal performance, perform the self-clean function periodically (e.g., once a month or as needed, depending on water hardness).

  1. Ompliu el dipòsit d'aigua fins a la línia "MAX".
  2. Set the temperature dial to the maximum setting and plug in the iron.
  3. Once the iron reaches maximum temperature (indicator light turns off), unplug it.
  4. Mantingueu la planxa horitzontalment sobre una pica.
  5. Press and hold the self-clean button (if available, refer to specific iron markings) or the steam shot button repeatedly until all water has drained from the tank, carrying out scale particles.
  6. Move the iron gently back and forth to help dislodge scale.
  7. Once empty, plug the iron back in and let it heat up to dry the soleplate. Unplug and store when cool.

4. Emmagatzematge

Store the iron upright on its heel rest in a safe, dry place after it has completely cooled down and the water tank is empty. Do not wrap the cord tightly around the iron while it is still hot.
