Solution

This phenomenon will cease after a
shor t while.

Select the required ironing
temperature as indicated in these
instructions and the table.

Put the steam tank on a stable and
even surface.

This is normal. Hold the iron over an
old cloth and press the steam activator
button (H). The cloth will absorb the
drops. After a few seconds the steam
production will have normalised.

Set the on/off switch (D) to 'on'.

Wait until the pilot light has gone out.

To check if the iron is really producing
steam, hold a (cold) mirror in front of
the soleplate vents.

Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth
and, if necessar y, with some washing-
up liquid.

Clean the soleplate with a damp cloth
and, if necessar y, with some washing-
up liquid. Select the recommended
ironing temperature.

Possible cause(s)

This is normal. Some par ts of the iron
have been greased lightly in the
factor y.

The temperature dial (I) has been set
to a temperature that is too low for
steam ironing.

The steam tank has been placed on an
unstable and/or uneven surface.

When you star t steam ironing, the
hose is cold. Steam condenses in the
hose, causing droplets of water to
escape from the soleplate.

The steam tank has not been switched
on.

The 'steam tank heating up' pilot light
is still on (types GC6024/6026 only).

Superheated (i.e. high-quality) steam is
hardly visible, especially when the
temperature dial has been set to
maximum position and even less so
when the ambient temperature is
relatively high.

Impurities or chemicals present in the
water have deposited on the soleplate.

You have been ironing at too high
temperatures.

Problem

Some smoke comes out of the
appliance after you have switched the
appliance on for the first time.

Droplets of water escape from the
soleplate

The appliance does not produce
steam.

There is no steam coming out of the
soleplate.

The soleplate is dir ty.
