your 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 (certain models only)

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.

• The iron must be used and rested on a

stable surface.

• When placing the iron on it’s heel,

ensure that the surface on which the
heel is placed is stable.

Children

• Close supervision is necessary when any

appliance is used near children.

• Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with this appliance.

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 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.

• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities,

or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.

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

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.
