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.
Children
•Children do not understand the dangers associated with operating electrical appliances. Never allow children to use this appliance.
•Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.
Other safety considerations
•Use the iron only for its intended use.
•To protect against the risk of electric shock do not put the appliance in water or in any other liquid.
•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.

Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug your iron. Ensure that the variable steam control is set at the
‘ ’ position, lift up the fill 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.

•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.
•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.

disconnected from the electrical socket, |
and that the cartridge is inserted |
correctly. |
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).
Jet cleaning
Your iron has a built in cleaning system designed to keep the water valve, steam chamber and steam vents clear of lint and loose mineral deposits. The ‘jet clean’ should be operated after each period of ironing.
To operate, ensure that there is little water in the tank, place the iron on its heel and turn the temperature control dial to the maximum setting. Wait for the temperature indicator light to go out, then unplug the iron and hold it about 6’’ (150mm) above the sink in the ironing position. Press the shot of steam button about 10 times in succession.
After this cleaning operation, empty out any remaining water.
