Steam iron overview
Heat setting markings on the temperature control of all Morphy Richards irons match those of the
International Textile Care Labelling Code.
The Turbosteam Pro Intellitemp model is equipped with IntelliTemp technology, which means it is safe to use
on all ironable fabrics without adjusting the temperature setting. Do not use on fabrics that have the ‘Do Not
Iron’ symbol. For stubborn creases, a max setting is available.

Using the iron
1) Filling the tank
Plug in the iron and switch on at the mains.
Set the temperature control (4) to the temperature
required (see ‘Temperature guide’ on page 3).
On the rotary temperature control model, the
temperature indicator light (5) will illuminate until
the required temperature is reached, then it will
turn off.
Tip: We recommend the temperature indicator light
is allowed to illuminate and extinguish twice for the
temperature to stabilise before you begin ironing.
The temperature indicator light will switch on and
off whilst you are ironing.
Tip: Begin with cool fabrics and work up to higher
settings. An iron heats up quicker than it cools
down so this will save you time and energy.
Set the electronic temperature control (4) to the
temperature required (see ‘Temperature guide’ on
page 3). The appropriate light flashes until the
temperature is reached, and then the iron beeps.
TurbosteamPro model:
The iron defaults to (cotton) when plugged in.
Press ‘SELECT’ to toggle the temperature:
one press for MAX setting (linen);
two presses for setting (nylon/silk);
three presses for setting (wool/polyester);
four presses for setting (cotton).
TurbosteamPro IntelliTemp model:
The iron defaults to IntelliTemp setting when
plugged in. Press ‘SELECT’ to toggle the
temperatures between IntelliTemp and MAX.
IntelliTemp technology means it is safe to use on
all ironable fabrics without adjusting the
temperature setting. Do not use on fabrics that
have the ‘Do Not Iron’ symbol. For stubborn
creases, a max setting is available.
2) Temperature Selection
3) Selecting the steam level
Vary the steam output using the variable
steam switch (1), as shown above.
Rotary temperature control model
Electronic temperature control models
Before first use, remove all packaging and the protective
cover on the soleplate. Make sure the iron is not plugged
in. Set the variable steam switch (1) to ‘O’. Fill the water
tank (11) via the filling hole (6). Fill whilst the iron is tilted
around 45 degrees, and place down horizontally to check
the water level against the MAX mark on the side of the
water tank. During ironing, with the iron placed on its heel
(10), use the graphics on the left-hand side of the iron to
see approximately how many minutes of steam remain
before the water tank needs refilling. This will vary
depending how much steam is used.
Do not overfill the iron otherwise it will cause leaking
from around the filler cap and may run down the iron.
IN HARD WATER AREAS, WE RECOMMEND USING
DEIONISED, DISTILLED OR DEMINERALISED WATER.
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 8.
RN303140MUK Rev1.qxp_Instruction Booklet 15/03/2021 17:15 Page 4
Dry ironing
Your iron can be used for dry ironing. Set the
variable steam switch
(1)
to ‘O’ and set the
temperature as desired (see ‘Temperature guide’
on page 3).
You won’t need water in the tank unless using
the water spray or steam boost features
.
Vertical steam
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases
from hanging clothes or curtains etc; Set the iron
to Max and hold the iron 1cm-2cm away from
the item and press the steam boost trigger
(3)
,
taking care not to let the hot soleplate contact
the item
.
Anti-drip system
This prevents water escaping from the soleplate
(9)
when the iron is too cold.
During use, the anti-drip system may emit a loud
click, particularly during heat-up or whilst cooling
down. This is perfectly normal and indicates that
the system is functioning correctly
.
Anti-scale system
This system reduces scale deposits and helps
prolong the life of the iron
.
Auto shut-off
If the iron is
stationary in the horizontal position
for 1 minute, or in the vertical position for 8
minutes
, it will automatically turn off for safety
and to save energy.
When auto shut-off is activated, the Auto shut-off
indicator
(5)
will flash (located in display in
electronic models).
Gently move the iron and it will reheat. Wait for
the iron to heat-up and continue ironing
.

Using the iron (continued)
For stubborn creases, use the water spray
button (2).
If using for the first time, you may need to press
this a few times to pull the water through.
Press the steam boost trigger
(3)
for an extra steam
burst for stubborn creases / heavy fabrics.
NOTE: If you need to use the steam boost whilst
dry ironing, the water tank will need to be filled and
check the temperature is set within the steam range
shown on page 3.
NOTE: For optimum steam quality, do not operate
the shot more than three times in succession
.

Emptying and storing
When you have finished ironing, unplug and
empty all water from your iron and set the steam
switch at the ‘O’ position. When cool, store the
iron on its heel with the cord wrapped loosely
around the heel. Use the cable clip
(12) to keep
in place.
NOTE: Please see point 3 of ‘Exclusions’ on page 8.
Cleaning
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 (9),
set the iron at the MAX position 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.
Self clean
Y
our 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.
1Half fill the iron with water.
2Place the iron on its heel
(10)
.
3Move the variable steam switch
(1)
to the ‘O’
position.
4Connect to a mains supply outlet.
5Set the temperature to ‘MAX’. See step 2 of
‘Using your iron’ on page 4.
6
Leave the iron switched on, rested on its heel (10)
until the temperature reaches maximum:
On models featuring a rotary temperature
control
(4)
, maximum temperature is achieved
when the indicator light goes out;
On models featuring an electronic
temperature control
(4)
, maximum temperature
is achieved when the indicator light
stops
flashing and remains constantly on
.
WARNING: Keep hands and body away from
the hot soleplate.
7Disconnect the iron from the mains supply outlet.
8Whilst the iron is still very hot, hold the iron
horizontally over a sink.
CAUTION: The soleplate will still be hot, so
ensure the power cord and plug are kept away
from it and the sink.
9
Press and hold the self clean button
(7)
.
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.
10
Whilst still holding the self clean button
(7)
,
gently move the iron back and forth until the
water tank is empty.
11
When steam and hot water cease to be released
from the soleplate
(9)
, release the self clean
button
(7)
.
12
Rest your steam iron back on its heel
(10)
and
allow to fully cool down.
13
Wipe the soleplate
(9)
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
•No power or not heating up.
1. Check the fuse. Try a new fuse with the same rating.
2.T
ry 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. Check the temperature control has not been set to
MIN.
•Overheating or not getting hot enough. 1.
Adjust the temperature control 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.
•Not steaming or poor steam. 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 “Self Clean” section).
•Dripping from the holes in the soleplate. 1. Ensure the temperature is set within the steam
band (refer to the “Temperature guide” section).
The iron will not be hot enough to produce steam
if the temperature is set too low.
2.
The steam level should be set lower if the
temperature is set lower (refer to the “Temperature
guide” section) to prevent it from dripping.
3. If the auto shut off feature has activated, wake up
the iron and allow it to reach temperature before
using steam.
•Tripping electrics. 1. Try using a different socket.
2. Ensure there are no other appliances being used
on the same set of sockets as the iron.
•The filler cap is broken or does not close properly. 1. Call our helpline to order a new replacement filler
cap to be sent out.
Problem Solution
•The iron emits some white powder from the
soleplate.
1. If the iron is new, this is residue from
manufacturing materials and will diminish after
the first couple of uses.
2. If the iron has been used many times, this could
be a sign of limescale build-up and a self clean
should be performed. Please see “Maintaining
your iron” section.
•Leaking water. 1. Do not overfill the iron.
2. Ensure the filler cap is closed properly.
