new iron...

• Safety first

Caution must be used when handling this appliance as it does get very hot. Always switch off the unit and allow to cool before cleaning or storing.

• Jet cleaning

Your iron will give the best ironing results and will last longer if you apply jet cleaning after each period of ironing.

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.

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).

WARNING: when not in use, your iron should never be placed flat and left on an ironing board.

To prevent damage to the textile being ironed, follow the temperature guide carefully. (Test the inside of the hem of the garment).

When ironing is complete, remove the plug from the socket, empty any remaining water from the tank, and allow to cool before storage.

If you drop or severely knock your iron this could cause internal damage even if the outside appears alright. Have it checked by a qualified electrician.

It is recommended that you use up one beaker of water by operating your iron’s steam and shot of steam functions before ironing any clothes as some dripping may occur while your irons steam system is activated.

Electrical requirements

Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be A.C. (Alternating current).

If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted.

WARNING : The plug removed from the mains lead, if severed, must be destroyed as a plug with a bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.

Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing a 13 amp BS1362 fuse must be fitted.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
