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:
W
WARNING: Danger to
the person
IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance! In addition we offer the following safety advice.
Location
Do not use outdoors.
Mains lead
Do not allow the mains lead to become strained or run this appliance over it.
If the electrical cable becomes damaged the cable assembly must be replaced. Do not attempt this task yourself, contact the helpline number that is found at the bottom of the page.
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.
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.
The iron must be used and rested on a stable surface
When placing the iron on its heel, ensure that the surface on which the iron is placed is stable.
The iron is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible signs of damage or if it is leaking.
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.
Do not operate the iron with a damaged cord or if the iron has been dropped or damaged. 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.
Children
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.
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).
W
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, turn off the steam selector switch, 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.
