IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The use of any electrical
appliance requires the
following common sense
safety rules.
Primarily there is danger of
injury or death and
secondly the danger of
damage to the appliance.
These are indicated in the
text by the following two
conventions:
WARNING: Danger to the
person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to
the appliance!
In addition, we offer the
following safety advice.
Location
• Do not use outdoors or
near water.
• The iron must be used and
rested on a stable surface.
Children
• Close supervision is
necessary when any
appliance is used near
children.
• Children do not understand
the dangers associated
with operating electrical
appliances.
• Children should be
supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the
appliance.
Personal safety
• WARNING: Burns can
occur from touching hot
metal parts, hot water or
steam. Use caution when
you turn a steam iron
upside down, there may
be hot water in the water
tank.
• WARNING: To protect
against the risk of
electric shock, do not
put the appliance in
water or in any other
liquid.
• Do not use the vertical
steam feature on clothes
that are being worn.
• Do not leave the iron
unattended whilst plugged
in or on an ironing board.
Never allow the mains lead
to over hang the work
surface.
• The socket should always
be off before plugging or
unplugging from the
socket. Never yank the
cord to disconnect from
the socket, instead, grasp
the plug and pull to
disconnect.
• Do not allow the cord to
touch hot surfaces. Let the
iron cool completely before
putting away. Loop the
cord loosely around the
iron before storing.
• The iron must not be left
unattended while it is
connected to the supply
mains.
• When placing the iron on
it’s heel, ensure that the
surface on which the heel
is placed is stable.
Other safety
considerations
• Use the iron only for it’s
intended use.
• Always disconnect the iron
from the electrical socket
when filling with water or
emptying, and when not in
use.
• If the supply cord is
damaged, it must be
replaced by the
manufacturer, it’s service
agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a
hazard.
• This appliance is not
intended for use by
persons (including children)
with reduced physical,
sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of
experience or knowledge,
unless they have been
given supervision or
instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a
person responsible for their
safety.
• Do not operate the iron
with a damaged cord, or if
the iron has been dropped
or damaged and if there
are visible signs of
damage, or if it is leaking.
To avoid the risk of electric
shock, do not disassemble
the iron, but telephone
Morphy Richards for
advice. Incorrect
reassembly can cause a
risk of electric shock when
the iron is used.
Special
instructions
• If your iron does not work,
check the following points:
Has the temperature
control been set to the

textile being ironed, follow
the temperature guide
