Lost my self cleaning instructions, please help

Go to www.lastmanuals.com > User manual > Rowenta

Heat to highest Heat level , then press self clean button on the iron

You can download manual from www.manualslib.com.

I believe this is the instruction manual - follow the link

Straight from the manual:

Fill the iron with tap water to the max mark on the water tank.
Be sure that variable steam lever is set to minimum.
Stand iron on heel and plug in. • Set thermostat to ••• setting.
Once heated, unplug iron.
Hold iron horizontally over the sink with the soleplate pointing away from body.
Move the variable steam lever completely to the right and hold in the self clean position for one minute.



Warning: Doing this will cause steam and hot water to be ejected from the soleplate. Take all proper precautions and hold iron away from body.
• Move the iron gently back and forth and side to side until all water has run through plate.
• Carefully wipe all water and material from the soleplate with an old towel, as the water and minerals can stain the soleplate (although this has no effect on glide or performance.)
Warning: Iron and soleplate may still be very hot. Exercise care while wiping.
• Place iron on heel and leave to cool. Before using iron after self cleaning, test steam and burst
of steam on an old towel or cloth than can be discarded.

I actually found the manual online - copied the pages needed for my wife to confirm how to perform "the self-clean". Took a while surfing but worth the time. Thanks.

I cleaned mine with alcohol and clean terry cloth. Took some work but it eventually got clean.
