  If water runs through the holes in the soleplate of your Rowenta Iron, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure you're not overfilling the boiler—do not exceed 33 oz of water. Also, confirm that the iron has reached the required temperature by waiting for the temperature/steam control lights to go out before ironing. If the iron hasn't been used for a while, water may have condensed in the steam tube; hold the iron away from clothing and press the steam control button until steam is produced. Finally, check that the steam output control dial isn't set too high for the iron's temperature, especially when ironing at a low temperature (•). If the thermostat isn’t working, send the appliance to an authorized service center.

  If the soleplate of your Rowenta Iron leaves brown streaks on clothing, it could be due to using chemical descaling agents or additives; never use these and rinse the boiler thoroughly. Another possible cause is tap water high in organic matter such as rust or iron; switch to bottled spring water or rinse the boiler more often.

  If your Rowenta Iron's soleplate leaves brown streaks on clothing, avoid using chemical descaling agents or additives; instead, rinse the boiler thoroughly. This issue may also arise if your tap water has a high concentration of organic matter like rust or iron. If this is the case, switch to bottled spring water or increase the frequency of rinsing the boiler.

  If steam escapes from the boiler cap of your Rowenta Iron, it could be due to the cap being screwed on incorrectly. When the unit is cold, unscrew the cap and then reattach it securely. Also, check the cap regularly for any signs of wear and tear on the green rubber ring, and replace the cap if you notice any damage.

  If steam escapes from the boiler cap of your Rowenta Iron, it could be because the cap is screwed on incorrectly; unscrew the cap when the unit is cold and put it back on. Another reason might be that the seal on the cap is worn; check the cap regularly for signs of wear and tear to the red rubber ring, and replace it if wear is noticed.

  If your Rowenta Iron's soleplate has build-up, it might be due to ironing at too high a temperature. Refer to the Steam Ironing section of the instructions for temperature recommendations. Another cause could be spray starch build-up. To avoid this, spray starch on the reverse side of the garment.
