20 Most Recent Rowenta Effective DX1900 Iron with Auto Shut-off Questions & Answers

This is a problem with a lot of Rowenta irons. It is the auto shut off that is not working properly and the only way to fix it is to have it disassembled and the switch hardwired to be on whenever the iron it plugged in. It is a thermal metal switch and it just stops working and then the iron will not turn on and the yellow light blinks.

If you start ironing with it, does it come back on? It usually doesn't take long for auto-shut-off irons to turn themselves off--a few minutes in the upright postion, and about 30 seconds if left sitting in the down position. Once you start the ironing motion, it should come back on.

follow this section troubleshooting and fix it. God bless youClean an iron:

1. Unplug the iron and make sure it is cool before cleaning.
2. Use a toothpick or pipe cleaner to remove buildup in the steam vents, making sure the debris doesn't fall into the vents.
3. Use a fine sewing needle to carefully clean the spray nozzle of mineral deposits.
4. To flush sediment from a steam iron, pour 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup vinegar into the water tank. Place the iron on a rack over a broiling pan and set the iron to steam until the tank runs dry. Repeat if necessary. Or follow the instructions for using a commercial iron cleaner.

Service the steam and spray mechanism:

1. Unplug the iron.
2. Use a fine sewing needle to unclog the steam valve assembly. Also, check the valve spring and replace it if it is broken or has lost tension.
3. If the spray pump is accessible, remove it and check for leaks by placing the spray tube in water and squirting the pump. Clean or replace as needed.

AUto shut off is not working properly.

hi.
this is calcium scaling. it is normal in any "hard" water area. ("hard" water has calcium salts naturally dissolved in it) if you look inside your kettle, you will probably see the same sort of thing.
it is probably happening in all of your appliances that use water and a heating element :-washing machine, boiler, iron, kettle. white vinegar will actually dissolve the scale and break it up, and should not actually harm the iron. i would not turn the iron on with vinegar in it as you could end up with a heated cloud of acid steam.NOT GOOD. there are plenty of proprietory descaling solutions available from most supermarkets. calgon is probably the best known. these solutions are safer, mainly because they have instructions telling you exactly how to use them safely. most will have some form of warranty against damaging the equipment they are used on as well. follow the instructions and descale all your appliances as needed. hope this helps
