Getting the best from your new ironing system....

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.

Water tank (certain models are illuminated)

The water tank can be removed and re-filled at any time during ironing. Certain Morphy
Richards steam generators have an illuminated water tank. The changing colours enhance the
mood for ironing by creating a colourful atmosphere to help you glide through your washing

IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS

The use of any electrical
appliance requires the use
of common sense and
strict following of 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 steam generator must
be used and rested on a
stable surface.

• When placing the iron unit
on the base unit or on its
heel, ensure that the
surface on which the heel
or base unit is placed is
stable.

Children

• Children do not understand
the dangers associated
with operating electrical
appliances. Never allow
children to use, or play
with, this appliance.

• 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 using your
steam generator. If your
iron is placed for a few
moments on the iron rest
plate, this plate may reach
very high temperatures. In
this instance, do not touch
the iron soleplate or the
iron rest plate until the iron
and the iron rest have
cooled down.

• Do not use the vertical
steam feature on clothes
that are being worn.

• Do not leave the steam
generator unattended
whilst plugged in or on an
ironing board. Never allow
the mains lead to over
hang the work surface.

• The mains socket should
always be switched 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.

• 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 steam generator
only for its intended use.

• Never hold the generator
base set under the tap.

• To protect against the risk
of electric shock, do not
immerse the appliance in
water or in any other liquid.

• Always disconnect the tank
from the base unit when
filling with water and
emptying.

• Always disconnect the
steam generator from the
electrical supply when
cleaning or 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 steam
generator 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 or
steam generator, but
telephone Morphy Richards
for advice. Incorrect
reassembly can cause a
risk of electric shock when
the iron is used.

• If the need arises to
change the mains cable on
your steam generator or
the iron, please return to
Morphy Richards service
department at the address
on the back page.

Special
instructions

• If your steam generator
does not work, check the
following points:

Has the iron 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).

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

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Temperature guide

• 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 steam generator, this could
cause internal damage even if
the outside appears alright.
Have it checked by a qualified
electrician.

• The temperature of accessible
surfaces may be high when the
appliance is operating.

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.

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: A damaged or
severed mains cable fitted
with a plug should never be
connected to the mains
supply. It must be destroyed,
as a damaged cable becomes
hazardous if connected to a
power socket.

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

WARNING: This appliance
must be earthed.

Heat setting markings on the adjustable control dial of all Morphy Richards irons match those of
the International Textile Care Labelling Code.
