Preparing for use
Filling the water tank

Do not put hot water, perfume, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids or other chemicals in
the water tank.
- GC7440: Fill the water tank when the ‘water tank empty’ light flashes.
- GC7423/GC7422: Fill the water tank when the water in the water tank has reached the MIN

- You can refill the water tank at any time during ironing.
1 Open the filling funnel lid. (Fig. 2)

Note: You can use normal tap water. If the tap water in your area is very hard, we advise you to mix it
with an equal amount of distilled water.
3 Properly close the filling funnel lid (‘click’).
Do not tilt or shake the steam tank when the water tank is full. Otherwise water may spill out of
the filling funnel.

normal and stops after a short while.
Note: When you switch on the appliance, the steam tank produces a pumping sound. This sound is
normal and indicates that water is being pumped into the steam tank.
