steam ironing

Never direct the steam at people.

Steam ironing is only possible at higher ironing temperatures (temperature settings 

2

 to MAX). 

  1 

 Make sure that there is enough water in the steam tank.

 Select an ironing temperature between 

2

 and MAX. 

  3

. 

  4 

 Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket and set both the steam tank switch and the iron 

switch to ‘on’. 

The steam tank and iron power-on lights go on. The temperature light on the iron also goes 

on.

The steam tank and the soleplate start to heat up. 

Cold star t: the soleplate takes approximately 2 minutes to heat up and the steam tank takes 

approximately 8 minutes to heat up.

Quick reheat: if you refill the steam tank during ironing, the water in the steam tank takes 

approximately 6 minutes to heat up. 

  5 

 As soon as the water in the steam tank is hot enough for steam ironing, the steam tank 

power-on light goes out. The steam-ready light goes on (GC6360 only). 

The appliance is now ready for steam ironing.

  6 

 Keep the steam activator pressed in while you steam iron.  (Fig. 5)

Note: During steam ironing, the steam-ready light goes on from time to time. This indicates that the 

steam tank is heating up to the right temperature.
Note: If you have not used the steam function for some time, the steam that was still present in the 

supply hose will have condensed into water. When you start to steam iron again, this can cause some 

spluttering in the appliance and some water droplets to escape from the soleplate.
Note: To prevent droplets from falling onto your garments, hold the iron over an old cloth. Press the steam 

activator until the steam production has normalised before you start to steam iron again.
