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

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.

Always 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
B
to 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.
