Why is water leaking from my Rowenta PRO COMPACT IB9100 VR8324U1's soleplate?

  If water runs out of the holes of the soleplate of your Rowenta Iron, it could be due to several reasons: * If you're using steam for the first time or haven't used it recently, press the steam control button, pointing the iron away from your ironing board, until steam is produced. * If the setting is incorrect (1 dot / 2 dots) and the soleplate isn't hot enough, set the iron at 3 dots (••• or MAX) and wait for the thermostat light to go out before using the steam button again. * If you're performing the Anti Calc procedure, water running out is normal.

  If your Rowenta Iron is producing little or no steam, here are a few things to check: * If you've just filled the tank, changed the anti-calc cartridge, or started using the iron, continuously press the steam control button for a few minutes, pointing it away from your linen to prime the pump. * Ensure the anti-calc cartridge is correctly installed and locked in its compartment. * Steam production requires a suitable temperature; set the thermostat control to the coloured zone (••• or MAX). * If the water tank is empty, refill it.

Why does my Rowenta PRO COMPACT IB9100 VR8324U1 Iron leave brown streaks on linen?

  If brown streaks come through the holes in the soleplate of your Rowenta Iron and stain the linen, it means that you are using chemical descaling agents or additives in the water. Never add this type of product to the water tank (see “for what water may be used”). Contact an Approved Service Centre.
