 The steam tank and the soleplate heat up.

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

approximately 6 minutes to heat up.

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

tank takes approximately 6 minutes to heat up. 

,

When the iron has reached the set temperature, the temperature light goes out. 

,

As soon as the water in the steam tank is ready for steam ironing:

 - GC6450/GC6440: the ‘steam ready’ light goes on (Fig. 12).

Note: During steam ironing, the ‘steam ready’ light goes out from time to time. This indicates that the 

steam tank is heating up to the right temperature.

 - GC6433/GC6430/GC6420/GC6410/GC6406/GC6405: the power-on light in the on/off switch 

goes out.

 Press the steam trigger and keep it pressed while you steam iron (Fig. 9).

Note: If you have not used the steam function for some time, the steam that was still present in the 

supply hose has condensed into water. When you start steam ironing again, this may cause some 

spluttering in the appliance and a few droplets of water may escape from the soleplate.
Note: To prevent droplets from falling onto your garments, hold the iron over an old cloth and press the 

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

 Iron without pressing the steam trigger.

,

Some steam escapes if you press the steam trigger by accident while you iron.

,

If the steam tank is empty or has not heated up yet, you hear a clicking sound inside the 

steam tank. This happens when the steam valve opens and is perfectly harmless.
