The spectrum of 33 Gem exhibits a great similarity with that of a CP3 star, but in contrast to other members of this group, light variations and variability in helium lines were reported. Even an effective magnetic field strength up to 1.4 kG was measured in the lines of elements He I, Si n, P H, Mg II, Ti H, Mn II, Fe H (Glagolevskij et al., 1985). For these far-reaching differences high resolution (R≃ 40000), high signal-to-noise (> 100) CCD spectra of 33 Gem were observed with the Coudé spectrograph of 2.2 m telescope at Calar Alto. As well for the profiles of the He I lines as for those of the metallic lines no changes could be found. Our rough inspection of Zeeman spectograms taken with the 6 m telescope at Zelenschuk in which Glagolevskij et al. noticed a magnetic field revealed unexpected splitting of several lines into two components probably caused by a companion. The line components are separated approximately by 0.1 Å. For this splitting a confirmation of the presence of a magnetic field was difficult.
