Locate the steam generator horizontally on the iron rest plate of your ironing board (if large enough) or on a heat resistant stand at the same height as your ironing board or below it. Always ensure the steam generator is on a firm surface when ironing.
WARNING: Do not use the product on a surface which could be damaged by heat or steam such as a worktop or a polished wood surface.
If in doubt, contact Morphy Richards.
Remove any protective cover from the soleplate
(6) and the base unit, if any.
Unwind and straighten the power (35) and steam supply cords (34).
Textiles and clothes carry ironing instructions. If not, follow the temperature guide above, but test the temperature by ironing the hem of the garment or other discreet area first.
It is advised to begin with ‘cool’ fabrics (see above) and work up to higher settings. An iron heats up quicker than it cools down so you’ll save time and electricity.
If you turn the temperature dial down from a hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the temperature indicator light (7) goes out (indicating the correct temperature has been reached) before you continue ironing.
You can carry the appliance by the iron handle (2) once the iron is locked to the base unit (22) (see ‘Storing the steam iron’ on page 11).

Unlock the iron from its storage position on top of the base unit (22) by pressing and holding the iron release button (18) (marked with a padlock icon) - this enables you to rotate the tip of the soleplate (6) (in a clockwise direction) out from under the iron-to-base locking hook (16) and lift the iron heel (8) away from the rear docking hook (20).
WARNING: To avoid burning yourself if the soleplate is still hot, never press down on the iron-to-base locking button
(17)
to unlock the
iron.
During use, the iron may be rested on the iron rest plate (19) with the soleplate tip on top of the iron-to-base locking hook (16) and the heel slotted on to the rear docking hook.

Steam boost button (certain models only)
The steam boost function is ideal for relaxing the fibres of tougher fabrics (like jeans and linen) and getting rid of those stubborn, hard to reach creases.
To produce a quick, powerful shot of steam during ironing, simply press and release the steam boost button (1).
NOTE: After using the steam boost function, your steam generator iron will require up to 5 seconds to reheat before it can produce a second boost of steam. If you require a high level of constant steam, choose the appropriate steam level and use the steam trigger (4) as instructed above.
Do not combine the two steam functions. Using the two buttons together will interrupt the flow of steam and may result in the constant steam cutting out completely. For optimum steam output, use each steam function separately and as detailed above.

Press the relevant button to either increase (32) or decrease (33) the steam level. The selected steam level will be displayed by illumination of the relevant steam level indicator light. The steam level indicator light will stop flashing and illuminate constantly when the selected steam level is reached.
For a strong, continuous flow of steam during ironing, press and hold the steam trigger (4) to deliver steam through the soleplate.
WARNING: The steam supply cord
(34)
will
get hot during use.
When you have finished ironing, turn off the appliance by pressing and holding the On/Off power button (31) for three seconds. A beep will be heard and the power indicator light (26) and steam level indicator (27/28/29) will be extinguished.
Disconnect the plug from the mains outlet.

IN HARD WATER AREAS, WE RECOMMEND A MIX OF 50% TAP WATER AND 50% DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED WATER.
Never use battery topping up fluid or water containing any substances like starch, sugar, fragrant additives or defrosted water from a refrigerator.
Re-filling during use
If the water level is too low, the low water level indicator light (30) will illuminate, a beep will be heard, and the unit will not produce steam. If this happens, disconnect the water tank and refill with water.
Dry ironing
To use your steam generator as a dry iron only, follow steps 2, 3 and 4 of ‘Using the Steam Generator for steam ironing’ on page 7. You do not need to put water in the tank or select a steam level. Press
either the steam boost button
(1)
(certain models only) or the steam trigger
(4)
at least once every 10 minutes, or the product will automatically turn off.
Auto shut-off (certain models only)
If
either the steam boost button
(1)
(certain
models only) or the steam trigger
(4) goes
unused for 10 minutes, the product will automatically turn off for safety and to save energy, and a beep will be heard.
To restart, press the On/Off button (31) (see step 2 of ‘Using the Steam Generator for steam ironing’ on page 7) and wait for the temperature to rise again.
Steam function
During steaming, small amounts of water may be ejected from the soleplate. This is normal and can be avoided by using the steam for short amou
nts of time and only when the iron is at the correct temperature (the temperature indicator light (7) on the iron goes out when ready).
Sudden jolts of the boiler unit can also cause water droplets on the soleplate; therefore, do not move the base unit during ironing.
We recommend for first time ironing that you iron over an old towel.
NOTE: The product may occasionally produce a pumping sound during steam ironing. This is normal and is caused by water being pumped through the steam generator.
Vertical steam
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, upholstery, etc. Hold the iron between 1cm and 2cm away from the item and press either the steam boost button
(1)
(certain models only) or the steam trigger
(4)
.
WARNING: Do not use the vertical steam feature on clothes that are being worn.

Auto clean function
Each time approximately 5L of water has been used in the steam generator, it will need to run an auto clean cycle. When the product is fully cooled down and first switched on, it will draw water from the water tank (15) to flush the boiler, emptying dirty water and limescale into the dirty water chamber (10). For this short time, the descaling indicator light (25) will flash and you will be unable to use the product to iron.
If there is not sufficient water to operate this function, the product will alert you with the low water level indicator light (30) and the process will be paused until the tank is refilled and replaced.
WARNING: During the auto clean process, the water ejected from the machine is very hot, so do not remove the water tank until the auto clean process is finished.
The auto clean process will take approximately 3 minutes, after which the steam generator will be ready for normal operation again. The flashing descaling indicator light (25) will extinguish and the low steam level indicator light (27) will flash, indicating that the steam generator is readying itself for the low steam level setting.
After ironing, switch off the steam generator at the On/Off power button (31) and unplug from the mains outlet. If the auto clean function has activated and completed, wait for the steam generator to cool down completely. Remove the detachable water tank and tip the dirty water from the dirty water emptying holes (11).
IMPORTANT: Ensure the dirty water is emptied after each auto clean cycle to prevent overflow.
WARNING: Dirty water in the dirty water chamber
(10)
will be hot after the auto clean
process, so take care when pouring it out.
To clean a coated soleplate
Do not use scouring powder or solution as this could cause damage to the coating.
If any man made fibres fuse to the soleplate (6), set the iron at the MAX position and pass it over a clean piece of cotton to draw the deposit off the surface.
To clean the exterior
Allow the unit to cool and wipe over with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then wipe dry.

Allow the appliance to cool.
Remove the detachable water tank (15) by squeezing the water tank release button (13). Lift the filler cap (9), and empty the water tank. Once the water tank is empty, re-attach it to the base unit (22).
To store, pull the cord clamp (24) outwards. Wrap the power cord (35) and iron steam supply cord (34) around the base unit in the cord storage groove
(23). Secure the cord in place with the cord clamp.
Avoid kinking of cables, particularly where they meet
the base unit.
IMPORTANT: Do not pull too tightly on the iron steam supply cord or on the cable pivot (3) when wrapping the power cord (35) and steam supply cord around the base unit (22). Damage to cables caused by wrapping too tightly will not be covered by the guarantee.
Storing the steam iron
Lock the iron into the storage position on top of the steam generator main body by pushing the soleplate down on the iron-to-base locking button (17) whilst pushing the iron heel (8) onto the rear docking hook (20). The iron should now be at a slight diagonal on the iron rest plate. Pivot the tip of the soleplate (6) under the iron-to-base locking hook (16) until the spring-loaded iron-to­base locking button (17) springs up, securing the iron in place.
