Before use
Note: The steam facility should only be
used on garments which are suitable for
ironing at the 2 and 3 dot settings.
When ironing with the steam facility at
the 2 dot setting, the steam output should
be set at the lower end of the steam range
(see variable steam section).
Textiles and clothes are supposed to
carry ironing instructions. If they don’t you
should follow the fabric guide on page 3,
but be sure to test the temperature by
ironing the hem of the garment or similar
area first.
If you turn the control dial down from a
hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the
iron temperature has stabilised before you
continue ironing.
Filling
1Make sure that the iron is not plugged in
and then set the steam control ⁄to the
‘ ’ position before filling the iron with
water.
2Lift up the fill cap and fill with water
through the filling hole ›using the
beaker provided. A11/2beakers fills the
tank (230 ml). After filling replace the fill
cap. In hard water areas the use of
distilled or demineralised water is
recommended.
Never use battery topping up fluid or
water containing any substances like
starch, or sugar, or defrosted water from
a refridgerator.
3Always pour out the remaining water
after use. WARNING: When filling your
iron with tap water always use the
beaker provided. Never fill directly
under the tap.
Temperature control
Plug in the iron and switch on. Set the
temperature control dial Bto the
temperature required, but don’t start ironing
immediately. If you wait a few minutes, the
iron will stabilise at the required setting. Your
Morphy Richards iron is fitted with an
indicator light ‚which will go on and off
while you are ironing.
