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.

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).

stable ironing board or table, with the iron resting on its stand.
2 Release the detachable water
tank by sliding outwards A.
3 Remove the anti-scale cartridge
by pulling upwards B.
4 Fill the tank to the ‘fill to here’
line with clean tap water C.
IN HARD WATER AREAS, THE USE OF DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED WATER IS RECOMMENDED.
WARNING: Never use battery topping up fluid or water containing any substances like starch or sugar, or defrosted water from a refrigerator.

cartridge and re-position the water tank on the base unit and push securely into place. Please make sure the tank is secure D.
6 Always pour out any remaining
water after use.
Re-filling ‘in use’
1 When the water level becomes
low, the pump begins to emit a clicking noise. This is due to air being pumped instead of water and is quite normal.
Refilling can be done whilst the appliance is in operation. It is not necessary to wait for the appliance to cool down.
2 Slide out the water tank and fill
(see filling instructions).
Steam ironing
1 Unwind and straighten the

4 Press the power switch again to
scroll through steam settings to the “no steam” position (no steam lights illuminated). Press the power switch again to go to the maximum steam position.
5 Turn the temperature dial on the
iron in a clockwise direction, select dot-1, dot-2 or dot-3 according to the recommendation of the garment label.
6 The iron’s temperature indicator
light goes off when the required temperature is reached.
7 Depress the steam button for
1 minute to clear the system of air (first time use only) which will be accompanied by a clicking noise which is quite normal.

Dry ironing
1 Connect the appliance to a
suitable mains outlet.
2 Press the power switch 3 times
until all three steam level indicators go off (steam off mode).
3 Turn the temperature dial on the
iron in a clockwise direction, select dot-1, dot-2, or dot-3 according to the recommendation of the garment label.
4 The temperature indicator light
glows on the iron, indicating that it is switched on.
5 When the required temperature
is reached, the temperature indicator light on the iron goes off. The iron is ready to use.
It is always a good idea to begin with ‘cool’ fabrics and work up to higher settings.
An iron heats up quicker than it cools down so you’ll save time and electricity.
Auto-shut off
An auto-shut off system will activate if the steam is not used for over 15 minutes. The mode indicator light will flash between green and red, indicating the unit is in ‘sleep mode’.
When this occurs, press the steam trigger or the power switch once. The appliance will switch on immediately and you need to select the required setting.
ANTI-SCALE SYSTEM
The anti-scale cartridge is designed to reduce the build-up of limescale which occurs during steam ironing. This will prolong the working life of your iron. However, please note that the anti-scale cartridge will not completely stop the natural process of limescale build-up.
Replacing anti-scale medium
How often you need to replace the medium depends on how often you use your iron with its steam functions and how ‘hard’ your water supply is. Water hardness varies greatly from one area to another. For advice on the relative hardness of your water, contact your local water supplier.
If, on average, you spend 2 hours per week ironing, then we suggest you replace your anti-scale medium as shown in the table below. If you iron more or less frequently, then you should alter the interval between refills accordingly.
Replacement anti-scale refills
To obtain replacement anti-scale refills, telephone our spares number on: 0844 873 0719.
If a new re-fill is not available, you may continue operating the appliance but scale will build up in the system. Replace the anti­scale refill as soon as possible.
1 Disconnect the appliance from
the mains outlet.
2 Slide out the tank and remove
the antiscale cartridge E.
3 Pull the plate from the end of
the cartridge F.
4 Remove the foam pad G and
slide out the spent antiscale sleeve H.
5 Place the refill into the cartridge,
reposition the foam pad and clip the plate onto the cartridge, making sure it locks in position.
6 After changing the anti-scale
cartridge, press the anti-scale button once before replacing the water tank I.

FEATURES OF YOUR STEAM GENERATOR
Temperature indicator light
The indicator light 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.
Steam function
During the steaming process, small amounts of water may be ejected from the soleplate. This is normal and can be avoided by using the steam for short amounts of time and only when the iron is at the correct temperature (the indicator light 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 the first time ironing that you iron over an old towel.
Vertical steam
Hold the iron in a vertical position between 1cm and 2cm away from the item J . Press the steam trigger ⁄, this will create vertical steam.
This feature is especially useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, wall hangings, etc.
Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug your steam generator.
1 Slide out the water tank
and remove the anti-scale cartridge K.
2 Empty the water in the tank
by holding it upside down L.
3 Replace the anti-scale
cartridge and reinstall the water tank.
Unplug the generator and leave the iron to cool off for 15 minutes minimum. The iron must be placed on the iron rest plate.
The iron and boiler can now be stored together.
MAINTENANCE
To clean a stainless steel soleplate
To keep the soleplate of your iron clean and free of limescale, we recommend that you use one of the gentle chrome, silver or stainless steel cleaners that are generally available. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. To clean off melted man­made fibres, set the iron at 3-dot position and pass it over a clean piece of cotton which will draw the deposit off the surface.
To clean a coated soleplate
(certain models only)
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, this 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 steam generator to cool and wipe over with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
