setting you select is suitable for the ironing temperature
selected: (Fig. 8)
- 1 - 3 for moderate steam (temperature settings 2 to 3)

ironing with ionic Deepsteam (GC4444/GC4440/GC4430
only)
When you use the Ionic DeepSteam function during steam ironing, the
steam produced is finer than during regular steam ironing. Fine steam
reaches deeper into the fabric. This helps you to easily remove stubborn
creases.
1 Follow steps 1 to 3 in section 'Steam ironing'.
