Introduction
The material setting knob on the Rowenta Focus DW5080 controls the amount of steam and heat used based on the specific material being ironed. If this button becomes stuck or is not changing the steam amount, the knob needs to be replaced following this replacement guide.
Prior to beginning this repair, the iron must be off and cooled down to avoid burns.
