escape from the Calc-

ironing?

You may not have tightened the Calc-Clean rinsing cap properly. Switch

hook and then remove the Calc-Clean rinsing cap. Wipe away the water 

round the hole. Then reattach the Calc-Clean rinsing cap and the cord 

storage hook again.Then switch the appliance back on.

Steam ironing:

Question

Answer

Why doesn’t the 

appliance produce any 

steam?

The appliance may not be switched on. Switch on the appliance.

The steam tank may not be hot enough to produce steam. Wait for 

approx. 2 minutes for the steam tank to heat up. GC7330/GC7240/

GC7230 only: the steam light stops flashing and stays on continuously 

when the water in the steam tank is hot enough for steam ironing.

The water tank may be empty. Refill the water tank (see chapter 

‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Refilling the water tank’). Briefly press the 

steam activator and wait for approx. 10 seconds. GC7330/GC7240/

GC7230 only: the steam light stops flashing and stays on continuously 

when the water in the steam tank is hot enough for steam ironing.
You are not pressing the steam activator. Keep the steam activator 

pressed in while you steam iron (see chapter ‘Using the appliance’).
Superheated (i.e. high-quality) steam is hardly visible, especially when the 

temperature dial is set to maximum position. To check if the iron really 

produces steam, set the temperature dial to 

3

 or 

2

. The steam 

then becomes visible.

Why doesn’t the 

appliance produce any 

steam after I have 

refilled the water tank?

The steam activator may be locked. Unlock the steam activator (see 

chapter ‘Using the appliance’), briefly press the steam activator and wait 

approx. 10 seconds before you use the steam activator again.

Why does the 

appliance produce a 

loud pumping sound?

The water tank is empty. When the water tank is empty, air gets into the 

pump and causes a loud pumping sound. Refill the water tank (see 

chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Refilling the water tank during use’). 

The pumping sound decreases after a while.
