Solution
The steam
boost function
does not work
properly.
You have used the
steam boost
function too often
within a very
short period.
Continue ironing in horizontal
position and wait a while
before you use the steam
boost function again.
The iron is not hot
enough.
Set an ironing temperature at
which the steam boost
function can be used ( 3
to MAX). Put the iron on its
heel and wait until the
temperature light goes out
before you use the steam
boost function.
Flakes and
impurities come
out of the
soleplate during
ironing.
Hard water forms
flakes inside the
soleplate.
Use the Calc-Clean function
one or more times (see
chapter ‘Cleaning and
maintenance’, section ‘Calc-
Clean function’).
The light on the
handle flashes
(GC2860 only).
The automatic
shut-off function
has been activated
(see chapter
‘Features’, section
‘Automatic shut-
off’).
Pick the iron up or move it
slightly to deactivate the
automatic shut-off function.
The automatic shut-off light
goes out.
Water droplets
drip on the
fabric during
ironing.
You have not
closed the cap of
the filling opening
properly.
Press the cap until you hear a
click.
