Important safeguardsImportant safeguards
Important safeguardsImportant safeguards
Important safeguards
When using your iron, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1Read all the instructions.
2Use the iron only for its intended use.
3To protect against the risk of electric
shock do not put the appliance in
water or in any other liquid.
4Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used near children.
NEVER ALLOW A CHILD TO USE
THIS PRODUCT.
5The socket should always be switched
off before plugging or unplugging from
the socket. Never yank the cord to
disconnect from socket, instead,
grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
6Do 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.
7Always disconnect the iron from the
electrical socket when filling with water
or emptying, and when not in use.
8Do not use outdoors.
9Do 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.
10 Do not use the vertical steam feature
on clothes that are being worn.
11 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.
12 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.

1If 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).
2 Warning:Whennotinuse,your
ironshouldneverbeplacedflatand
left onan ironingboard.
3To prevent damage to the textile being
ironed, follow the temperature guide
carefully. (Test the inside of the hem of
the garment).
4When ironing is complete, remove the
plug from the socket, empty any
remaining water from the tank, and
allow to cool before storage.
5If 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.
6It 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.
