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.
Children
Children do not understand the dangers
associated with operating electrical
appliances. Never allow children to use
this appliance.
Close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used near children.
Personal safety
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.
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 plug and pull
to disconnect.
Do not allow the cord to touch hot
surfaces. Let the iron cool completely
before putting away. Loop cord loosely
around the iron before storing.
Other safety considerations
Use the iron only for its intended use.
•To protect against the risk of electric
shock do not put the appliance in water
or in any other liquid.
Always disconnect the iron from the
electrical socket when filling with water
or emptying, and when not in use.
Do not operate the iron with a damaged
cord or if the iron has been dropped or
damaged. 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.
Anti-scale models only
•Keep the anti-scale sachet out of reach
of children.
•Wipe up spilt anti-scale granules
immediately.
If the granules come into accidental
contact with the eyes, flush them with
water for at least 15 minutes and remove
all particles. Consult a physician if
irritation persists.
If the granules come into contact with
the skin, remove particles and wash with
water.
Do not remove the anti-scale cartridge
from the iron, unless the tank is empty.
When filling ensure that the iron is
disconnected from the electrical socket,
and that the cartridge is inserted
correctly.
Special instructions
If your iron does not work, check the
following points:
Has the temperature control been set to
the required temperature? Is the plug in
its socket? Is the plug itself or the socket
faulty? (Check by plugging in another
appliance).

Emptying and storing
When you have
finished ironing,
unplug your iron.
Ensure that the
variable steam
control is set at the
‘’ position, lift up
the fill cap and empty
any remaining water
out of the filling hole.
Do not store in the box, but in an upright
position, so that any drops of water
remaining cannot leak out and discolour the
soleplate.
Important: The
flex can be damaged
if wound too tightly
around the iron after
use. Make a loose
loop with the flex and
wrap it around the
iron. The iron must
be cool before
winding the flex and storing on its heel.
Maintenance
Jet cleaning
Your iron has a built in cleaning system
designed to keep the water valve, steam
chamber and steam vents clear of lint and
loose mineral deposits. The ‘jet clean’ should
be operated after each period of ironing.
To operate, ensure that there is little water
in the tank, place the iron on its heel and turn
the temperature control dial to the maximum
setting. Wait for the temperature indicator
light to go out, then unplug the iron and hold
it about 6’’ (150mm) above the sink in the
ironing position. Press the shot of steam
button about 10 times in succession.
After this cleaning operation, empty out
any remaining water.
To clean a stainless steel
or anodised soleplate
(certain models only)
To keep the soleplate of your iron clean
and free of limescale, we recommend that
you use one of the gentle chrome, silver or
stainless steel cleaners that are generally
available. Always follow the manufacturers
instructions. To clean off melted man-made
fibres set the iron at 3 dot position and pass
it over a clean piece of cotton which will draw
the deposit off the surface.
To clean a coated soleplate
(certain models only)
In the unlikely event of any man-made
fibre fusing to the soleplate, set the iron at
the 3 dot position and pass it over a clean
piece of cotton which will draw the deposit
off the surface.
Do not use scouring powder or solution as
this could cause damage to the coating.
To clean the exterior
Allow the iron to cool and wipe over with a
damp cloth and mild detergent, then wipe
with a dry cloth.
