Location

Locate the steam generator horizontally 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 steam generator 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.

Before use

Remove any protective cover from the soleplate (6) and the base
unit, if any.
Unwind and straighten the power (35) and steam supply cords (34).
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 and electricity.
If you turn the temperature dial down from a hot setting to a cooler
setting, wait until the temperature indicator light (7) goes out
(indicating the correct temperature has been reached) before you
continue ironing.
You can carry the appliance by the iron handle (2) once the iron is
locked to the base unit (22) (see 'Storing the steam iron' on page
11).

Using the Steam Generator for steam ironing

When steam ironing, remove the detachable water tank (15), lift
1
the filling cap (9), and fill with water to the max fill line. Replace
the water tank.
IMPORTANT: Never fill the dirty water chamber (10).
Plug the appliance into a mains outlet, you will hear a beep. Press
2
the On/Off button (31), it will beep again and the power indicator
light (26) will illuminate and the low steam level indicator light (27)
will flash.
Turn the temperature dial (5) to suit the garment (see 'Temperature
3
guide' on page 6). The temperature indicator light (7) illuminates
until the temperature is reached. Begin ironing when the
temperature indicator light goes out. If you turn the temperature
dial down, wait until the temperature indicator light illuminates and
then goes off again.
4 Unlock the iron from its storage position on top of the base unit
(22) by pressing and holding the iron release button (18) (marked
with a padlock icon) - this enables you to rotate the tip of the
soleplate (6) (in a clockwise direction) out from under the iron-to-
base locking hook (16) and lift the iron heel (8) away from the rear
docking hook (20).
WARNING: To avoid burning yourself if the soleplate is still
hot, never press down on the iron-to-base locking button (17)
to unlock the iron.
During use, the iron may be rested on the iron rest plate (19) with
the soleplate tip on top of the iron-to-base locking hook (16) and
the heel slotted on to the rear docking hook.
