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: 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 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 mains supply.
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
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, it’s service agent or similarly qualified person(s) in order to avoid a hazard.
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 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.
