Setting the temperature
1 Put the iron on its heel.
2 To set the required ironing temperature, turn the
temperature dial to the appropriate position (Fig. 5).
Check the laundry care label for the required ironing
temperature:
1 Synthetic fabrics (e.g. acrylic, nylon, polyamide,
polyester)
1 Silk
2 Wool
3 Cotton, linen
If you do not know what kind or kinds of fabric an article
is made of, determine the right ironing temperature by
ironing a part that will not be visible when you wear or
use the article.
Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side
of the fabric to prevent shiny patches. Avoid using the
spray function to prevent stains. Start ironing the articles
that require the lowest ironing temperature, such as those
made of synthetic bres.
3 Put the mains plug in a wall socket.
The amber temperature light goes on.
4 When the temperature light goes out, wait a while
before you start to iron (Fig. 6).
The temperature light goes on from time to time during
ironing.
Using the appliance
Note:The iron may give off some smoke when you use it for
the rst time. This stops after a short while.
Steam ironing
1 Make sure that there is enough water in the water
tank.
2 Select the recommended ironing temperature (see
chapter ‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Setting the
temperature’).
3 Select the appropriate steam setting. Make sure
that the steam setting you select is suitable for the
ironing temperature selected: (Fig. 7)
1 - 2 for moderate steam (temperature settings 2
to 3)
3 - 4 for maximum steam (temperature settings
3 to MAX)
Note:The iron starts to steam as soon as it has reached the
set temperature.

‘Features’, section ‘Drip stop’).
Ironing without steam

steam) (Fig. 3).

Drip stop (GC3360/3340/3332/3331/3330

This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the
iron automatically stops producing steam when the
temperature is too low to prevent water from dripping
out of the soleplate. When this happens you may hear a
sound.
Electronic safety shut-off function (GC3360
only)
If the iron has not been moved for a while, the electronic
safety shut-off function automatically switches off the iron.
The red auto-off light starts to ash to indicate that
the iron has been switched off by the safety shut-off
function (Fig. 6).
To let the iron heat up again, pick it up or move it slightly.
The red auto-off light goes out.
If the temperature light goes on, wait until it goes out
before you start to iron.
If the temperature light does not go on, the iron is
ready for use.
Cleaning and maintenance
Double-Active Calc System
(GC3360/3340/3332/3331/3330/3321 only)
The Double-Active Calc System consists of an Antic-Calc
tablet combined with the Calc-Clean function.
The Anti-Calc tablet prevents scale from clogging
the steam vents. The tablet is constantly active and
does not require replacement (Fig. 12).
The Calc-Clean function removes the scale
particles from the iron.
Calc-Clean function
Use the Calc-Clean function once every two weeks. If
the water in your area is very hard (i.e. when akes come
out of the soleplate during ironing), use the Calc-Clean
function more frequently.
1 Make sure the appliance is unplugged.
2 Set the steam control to position 0.
3 Fill the water tank to the maximum level.
Do not pour vinegar or other descaling agents into the
water tank.
4 Set the temperature dial to MAX.
5 Put the plug in the wall socket.
6 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes
out.
7 Hold the iron over the sink, press and hold the
Calc-Clean button and gently shake the iron to and
fro (Fig. 13).
Steam and boiling water come out of the soleplate.
Impurities and akes (if any) are ushed out.
8 Release the Calc-Clean button as soon as all the
water in the tank has been used up.
9 Repeat the Calc-Clean process if the iron still
contains a lot of impurities.
After the Calc-Clean process
1 Put the plug in the wall socket and let the iron heat
up to allow the soleplate to dry.
2 Unplug the iron when the temperature light goes
out.
3 Move the iron gently over a piece of used cloth to
remove any water stains that may have formed on
the soleplate.
4 Let the iron cool down before you store it.
