The iron that not only does a good job...
Our ecolectric iron has a ceramic coated soleplate for smoother gliding, powerful steam for better results and a 400ml water tank for longer ironing between refills.
...it helps you do your bit to save the planet
It switches off after it’s not been used for three minutes - to prevent wasting energy. Little things like that really make a difference.
Meet the family
Every product in the ecolectric family is packaged in materials that are both recycled and 100% recyclable. Naturally, that makes them better for the environment.

GETTING THE BEST FROM 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: Your iron will give the best ironing results and will last longer if you apply jet cleaning after each period of ironing.
Useful tip: If clothes are wrinkled, hang them around the bathroom while you take a hot shower, When you’re done, the steam will have worked wonders on the wrinkles and you’ll use far less energy ironing them.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Location
Do not use outdoors.
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 this appliance.

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.
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 the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
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.
When placing the iron on it’s heel, ensure that the surface on which the heel is placed is stable.
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.
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 it’s socket? Is the plug itself or the socket faulty? (Check by plugging in another appliance).
WWAARRNNIINNGG:: WWhheenn nnoott iinn uussee,, yyoouurr iirroonn sshhoouulldd nneevveerr bbee ppllaacceedd ffllaatt aanndd lleefftt oonn aann iirroonniinngg bbooaarrdd..
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 iron’s steam system is activated.

When ironing with the steam at the lower end of the steam band, the variable steam output
should be set at the lower end of the steam range (see ‘Variable steam’ section).
Textiles and clothes are supposed to carry ironing instructions. If they don’t, you should follow the fabric guide on page 3, but be sure to test the temperature by ironing the hem of the garment or similar area first.
If you turn the control dial down from a hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the iron temperature has stabilised before you continue ironing.

Temperature control
BB
Plug in the iron and switch on. The ‘power on’ indicator lights
, situated in the back cover, will illuminate. Set the temperature control dial BBto the temperature required, but don’t start ironing immediately. If you wait a few minutes, the iron will stabilise at the required setting.
Your Morphy Richards iron is fitted with an indicator light
which will go on and off while you are ironing. This is perfectly normal as it shows that the iron is maintaining the heat setting you have chosen.

FEATURES OF YOUR IRON
Temperature indicator light
The indicator light under the control knob shows that the iron is warming up. When the required temperature is reached, the light will go out and will cycle on-off during operation.
Dry ironing
You can use your iron as a dry iron only. Make sure the variable steam control ‹is set to the ‘0’ symbol.
Any temperature setting may be used depending on the garment. The spray feature may be used provided there is water in the tank (see ‘Filling’ section). You do not need to put any water in the tank when dry ironing only.
Spray
CC
Press the spray button ¤¤and aim the spray of water at stubborn creases. You can do this whilst dry ironing, providing there is water in the tank. When using the water spray it may be necessary to push the button a few times to get the spray pump primed.
Variable steam
DD
Fill the iron with water as described in ‘Filling’, and insert the plug into the electrical socket.
The steam output can be varied from low to high by sliding the variable steam control DD. When using the iron at the bottom of the steam range, the steam output should be adjusted to the lowest setting.
The steam facility should only be used on garments which are suitable for ironing within the steam band.
Steam uses additional energy. To save energy, only use steam when necessary.

Shot of steam
EE
Press the shot of steam button
to obtain a burst of extra steam for ironing out creases in heavy material such as denim etc.
The shot of steam can be used whilst dry ironing, providing there is water in the tank, and the temperature control is set within the steam range.
Do not use shot of steam at temperatures below the steam range shown on the control.
Note: For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.
Vertical steam
Hold the iron in a vertical position between 1cm and 2cm away from the item FF. Press the shot of steam button ⁄, this will create vertical steam. This feature is especially useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, wall hangings, etc.
Note: For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.
No drip system
Your iron is fitted with a no drip system which is designed to prevent water escaping from the soleplate when the iron is too cold.
During use, the no drip system may emit a loud click, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that the system is functioning correctly.
Auto energy shut-off
Energy conscious iron with no compromise on performance...
Your iron is fitted with the auto energy shut-off function, and will automatically shut down after a set period.
If the iron is left unattended in the horizontal position, it will shut down after one minute.
If it is left in the vertical position, it will shut down after 3 minutes. When this happens, the two ‘power on’ lights, situated in the back cover „, will flash to show that the iron is in power-off mode.
It stops when you stop...
To reactivate the iron, gently shake it until the ‘power on’ lights „stop flashing and remain on.
The iron will then start to heat back up to the temperature it is set to.
Life long anti-scale system
The life long anti-scale system reduces scale deposits and helps prolong the life of the iron.

MAINTENANCE
Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug your iron. Ensure that the variable steam control is set at the ‘0’ position, lift up the fill cap and empty any remaining water out of the filling hole GG.
Do not store in the box, but in an upright position HH, 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 it’s heel.
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 it’s heel and turn the temperature control dial to the maximum setting. Wait for the beep, 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 coated soleplate
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.
