Iron on wrong side, if moisture required, use damp cloth

(not Acetate)

Cotton, Linen

Rayon, Rayon mixtures

Fabrics requiring this setting usually require steam pressing.

Steaming

Without steam

Before first use

Remove all packaging and any protective cover from the soleplate

(18)

, if any. Unwind and straighten the power cord

(6)

.

We recommend for first time ironing that you iron over an old towel.

Location

Stand the iron on its heel

(14)

and locate it on the iron rest plate of your ironing board (if large enough) or on a heat resistant stand at the same height as your ironing board or below it. Always ensure the iron is on a firm surface when ironing.

WARNING: Do not use the product on a surface which could be damaged by heat or steam such as a worktop or a polished wood surface.

If in doubt, contact Morphy Richards.

Usage tips

Unwind and straighten the power cord

(6)

.

Textiles and clothes carry ironing instructions. If not, follow the temperature guide above, but test the temperature by ironing the hem of the garment or other discreet area first.

It is advised to begin with ‘cool’ fabrics (see above) and work up to higher settings. An iron heats up quicker than it cools down so you’ll save time.

If you turn the temperature level down from a hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the temperature setting indicator

(19)

stops flashing (indicating the correct temperature has been reached) before you continue ironing.

RN305000 MUK Rev1.qxp_IB 17/10/2017 12:10 Page 7

Using the iron

1) Filling the tank

Make sure the iron is not plugged in. Fill the water tank

(11)

via the filling hole

(6)

to the MAX graphic on the side of the water tank, this shows the MAX level of water that the tank can hold and should be checked whilst filling and the iron is tilted.

TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF THIS IRON, WE RECOMMEND A MIX OF 50% TAP WATER AND 50%

DISTILLED, DEIONISED OR DEMINERALISED WATER, ESPECIALLY IN HARD WATER AREAS.

Never use battery topping up fluid or water containing any substances like starch, sugar, fragrant additives or defrosted water from a refrigerator.

NOTE: Please see point 2 of ‘Exclusions’ on page 12.

Re-filling during use

If the water level is too low, the unit will not produce steam. If this happens, open the filling cap

(12)

and refill with water.

2) Temperature Selection 3)

Plug the appliance into a mains outlet, a beep will be heard. Press the on-off / temperature decrease button

(1)

to switch the product on.

The 1-dot temperature setting indicator

(19)

on the digital display

(10)

will flash until the temperature is reached, at which point the 1-dot temperature setting indicator will remain constant and two beeps will be heard.

4)

If a different temperature is required to suit the garment (see ‘Temperature guide’ on page 6), you may adjust the temperature as follows: press either the temperature increase

(2)

or temperature decrease button

(1)

repeatedly until the required temperature setting indicator

(19)

is displayed.

Using the iron (continued)

5) Auto Steam button 6) Steam boost

11

The steam level is automatically adjusted to suit the selected temperature setting. This is denoted by the steam level indicators

(20/21/22)

on the digital display

(10)

, which will change along with the temperature setting indicators

(19)

when you select your desired temperature level.

To activate the steam pump and have steam constantly emitted from the soleplate

(18)

during ironing, press the Auto Steam button

(3)

. The steam level indicator will flash indicating that the pump is operating and steam is being produced. To stop the pump producing steam, press the Auto Steam button again, the steam level indicator will stop flashing and remain constantly illuminated.

We recommend switching off the steam when resting the iron on its heel. This is to slow the water usage down and save time on refilling.

7) Water spray

The steam boost function is ideal for relaxing the fibres of tougher fabrics (like jeans and linen) and getting rid of those stubborn, hard to reach creases.

To produce an extra boost of steam during ironing, press and hold the steam trigger

(11)

.

NOTE: Steam cannot be produced on the 1-Dot setting - this is highlighted by no steam level indicators

(20/21/22)

being visible on the digital display

(10)

whilst the 1-Dot setting is selected.

NOTE: For optimum steam quality, do not operate the shot more than three times in succession.

8) Switching off

To help remove stubborn creases, you may use the water spray function. Aim the water spray nozzle

(16)

at the difficult area on the garment and firmly press and hold the water spray button

(4)

.

Pressing the water spray once will dispense a set amount of water.

When you have finished ironing, turn off the appliance by pressing and holding the on-off / temperature decrease button

(1)

for two seconds.

Two beeps will be heard and all indicators on the digital display

(10)

will switch off.

Disconnect the plug from the mains outlet.

(24)

will flash and beep once.

Dry ironing

To use your iron as a dry iron only, follow steps 2,

3, and 4 of ‘Using the iron’ on page 7. Do not press the Auto Steam button

(3)

to operate the steam pump. You do not need to put water in the water tank

(17)

.

Vertical steam

Vertical steam is useful for removing creases from hanging clothes, curtains, upholstery, etc. Hold the iron between 1cm and 2cm away from the item and press the steam trigger

(11)

.

Hold the iron vertically and turn on the Auto

Steam function for a constant flow of steam.

Simply allow the steam to pass lightly over the item of clothing in question to help the creases soften away. To generate a powerful shot of steam for stubborn creases, press the steam trigger. You can also use vertical steaming to clean and refresh the upholstery around your home.

To restart, either move the iron or press any buttons on the controls

(7)

and wait for the temperature to rise again.

NOTE: The appliance is not turned off completely in auto shut-off mode. To switch the product off, press and hold the on-off / temperature decrease button

(1)

until all indicators in the digital display

(10)

extinguish, then unplug the product from the mains outlet.

Maintaining your iron

Emptying and storing

When you have finished ironing, press and hold the on-off / temperature decrease button

(1)

to switch the product off, then unplug and empty all water from your iron. When cool, store the iron on its heel

(14)

with the power cord

(6)

wrapped loosely around the heel.

NOTE: Please see point 3 of ‘Exclusions’ on page

12.

Cleaning the soleplate

To clean a coated soleplate

Do not use scouring powder or solution as this could cause damage to the coating.

If any man-made fibres fuse to the soleplate

(18)

, set the iron at the MAX setting and pass it over a clean piece of cotton to draw the deposit off the surface.

To clean the exterior

Allow the unit to cool and wipe over with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then wipe dry.

Removing limescale

Your iron has a built in self clean system designed to keep the water valve, steam chamber and steam vents clear of lint and loose mineral deposits.

When the self clean icon

(23)

appears on the digital display

(10)

, the self clean function must be operated.

Press and hold the self-clean button

(13)

.

WARNING: Steam and boiling hot water will drain from the holes in the soleplate. Keep hands and body away from the hot water. This washes away the scale and minerals that have built up inside the steam chamber.

Whilst still holding the self-clean button, gently move the iron back and forth until the water tank is empty.

When steam and hot water ceases to be released from the soleplate, release the self-clean button.

10

When the process is complete, re-connect to a mains supply outlet, switch on and allow to heat up - this will dry the soleplate.

11

Disconnect the iron from the mains supply outlet.

12

Rest your steam iron on its heel

(14)

and allow to fully cool down.

13

Wipe the soleplate with a cold, damp cloth.

After this cleaning operation, empty out any remaining water.

IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to descale the soleplate with descaling products.

Troubleshooting

Problem

• No power or not heating up.

• Overheating or not getting hot enough.

• Not steaming or poor steam.

• The product occasionally produces a pumping sound during steam ironing.

• Dripping from the holes in the soleplate.

• Tripping Electrics.

• The filler cap is broken or does not close properly.

• Steam is triggered when I press the water spray button.

Solution

1.

Check the fuse and the fuse rating (should be 13amp).

2.

Try a different appliance in the socket as it may be the socket that is at fault.

3.

Check that the auto shut off has not operated.

4.

Ensure the iron is switched on by pressing the on-off / temperature decrease button

(1)

.

1.

Adjust the temperature to ensure the setting matches that recommended on the garment or refer to the “temperature guide” section.

2.

Allow the iron to reach temperature and stabilise for 1-2 minutes if it has just been plugged in, or has just been woken up from auto shut off.

1.

Ensure the temperature is set within the steam band and that the steam level is set to the correct level (refer to the “temperature guide” section).

2.

Check that there is enough water in the tank.

3.

If the auto shut off feature has activated, wake up the iron and allow it to reach temperature before using steam.

4.

Perform a self-clean to clear away limescale inside the iron (refer to “Removing limescale” section).

5.

Please remember the iron does not steam on the 1-dot setting.

1.

This is normal and is caused by water being pumped through the steam pump.

2.

If the pumping sound suddenly becomes louder or the steam diminishes, check and refill the water tank if it has become empty.

1.

Use the steam for short amounts of time.

2.

Perform a self-clean to clear away limescale inside the iron (refer to “Removing limescale” section).

3.

If the auto shut off feature has activated, wake up the iron and allow it to reach temperature before using steam.

1.

Try using a different socket.

2.

Ensure there are no other appliances being used on the same set of sockets as the iron.

1.

Call our helpline to order a new replacement filler cap to be sent out.

2.

Please note, there may appear to be a gap between the digital screen and filler cap, as long as the cap clicks shut, water should not leak out.

1.

This is normal, a small amount of steam may appear when pressing the water spray button.
