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 or near
water.
• 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.
Personal Safety
• WARNING: 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.
• WARNING: To protect
against the risk of electric
shock, do not put the
appliance in water or in
any other liquid.
• Do not use the vertical steam
feature on clothes that are
being worn.
• 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 the plug and
pull to disconnect.
• Do not allow the cord to
touch hot surfaces.
• Let the iron cool completely
before putting away. Loop
the cord loosely around the
iron before storing.
• The iron must not be left
unattended while it is
connected to the supply
mains.
• When placing the iron on its
heel, ensure that the surface
on which the heel is placed
is stable.
• 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 use of the
appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
Other safety
considerations
• Use the iron only for its
intended use.
• Always disconnect the iron
from the electrical socket
when filling with water or
emptying, and when not in
use.
• If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified
person(s) in order to avoid a
hazard.
• Do not operate the iron with
a damaged cord, or if the
iron has been dropped or
damaged and 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
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 iron’s 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

BEFORE USE
Sort out the items to be ironed
according to the type of fabric.
This will minimise the frequency
of temperature adjustment for
different garments.
Note: The steam facility should
only be used on garments which
are suitable for ironing at the 2
and 3-dot settings (see
‘Temperature guide’ on page 3).
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
discreet area first.
If you turn the temperature
down from a hot setting to a
cooler setting, wait until the iron
temperature has stabilised
before you continue ironing.
Delicate fabrics such as silk,
wool, velour, etc, are best ironed
with an ironing cloth to prevent
shine marks.

described in ‘Filling’, page
4, and insert the plug into
the electrical socket.
The steam output can be varied
from low to high by turning the
variable steam control D. When
using the iron at the bottom of

within the steam range.
Do not use shot of steam at
temperatures below the steam
range shown on the control dial.
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 F. 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 shut-off
Your iron is fitted with the auto
shut-off function, it will
automatically shut down after a
set period. The ‘safety switch
off’ L.E.D. will flash on the
function panel.
If the iron is left unattended in
the horizontal position, it will
shut down after 1 minute.
If it is left in the vertical position,
it will shut down after 8 minutes.
To reactivate the iron, gently
shake it and wait for the iron to
heat-up as normal.
Life long anti-scale
system
The life long anti-scale system
reduces scale deposits and
helps prolong the life of the iron.
MAINTENANCE

‘on’ when the selected
temperature is attained.
7 Disconnect the iron from
the mains supply outlet.
8 Hold the iron horizontally
over a sink.
9 Press and hold down the
Self-Cleaning button Â.
10 Steam and boiling hot
water will drain from the
holes in the soleplate,
washing away the scale
and minerals that have built
up inside the Steam
Chamber.
11 Gently move the iron back
and forth until the water
tank is empty.
12 When cleaning is complete,
release the Self-Cleaning
button Â.
13 Rest your steam iron back
on its heel and allow to fully
cool down.
14 Wipe the soleplate with a
cold, damp cloth.
After this cleaning
operation, empty out any
remaining water.
WARNING: Keep hands
and body away from the
hot water.
WARNING: Do not
attempt to descale the
soleplate with descaling
products.
To clean a ceramic
coated soleplate
In the unlikely event of any
man-made fibre fusing to
the soleplate, set the iron at
the MAX 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.
Emptying and
storing
H
When you have finished
ironing, unplug your iron.
Ensure that the variable
steam control is set at the
‘0’ position, lift up the filler
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 I.
