Using the Steam Generator
Plug the appliance into a mains outlet, you will
hear a beep. Press the On/Off button (20), it will
beep again and the On/Off button and the
temperature indicator light (5) will illuminate and
the low steam level indicator light (17a) will flash.
2
Remove the detachable water tank (3) by
squeezing the water tank release button (2), and
fill with water through the filling aperture (1) to the
max fill line
. Replace the water tank.
IN HARD WATER AREAS, WE RECOMMEND A
MIX OF 50% TAP WATER AND 50% DISTILLED,
DEIONISED 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 12.
Re-filling during use
If the water level is too low, the unit will not
produce steam. If this happens, refill the
detachable water tank (3) with water.
1
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.
Remove any protective cover from the soleplate
(6) and the base unit (14).
Unwind and straighten the power cord (21) and
steam supply cord (22).
We recommend for first time ironing that you
iron over an old towel.
LocationBefore use
RN333200 MUK Rev1.qxp_IB 11/04/2018 17:16 Page 6
7
Turn the temperature dial (8) to suit the garment
(see ‘Temperature guide’ on page 5). The
temperature indicator light (5) illuminates until the
temperature is reached. Begin ironing when the
temperature indicator light goes out.
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 (8) down from a
hot setting to a cooler setting, wait until the
temperature indicator light (5) goes out (indicating
the correct temperature has been reached) before
you continue ironing.
3
Unlock the iron (11)from its storage position on
top of the base unit(14)by sliding the iron-to-
base lock(9)to the position marked with an
unlocked padlock icon - the iron can then be
lifted off the base unit.
WARNING:
The soleplate will be hot.
During use, the iron (11)may be rested on the
iron rest plate(13).

Ironing with steam
Press the steam level select button (18) to select
your desired steam level. The selected steam level
will be displayed by illumination of the relevant
steam level indicator light (17). The steam level
indicator light will stop flashing and illuminate
constantly when the selected steam level is reached.
To operate the steam, press and hold the steam
trigger (4) to release steam. There will be a slight
delay whilst the steam is drawn from the base and
along the steam cord to the irons soleplate (6).
NOTE: Residual steam - as the steam has a long
distance to travel along the steam cord it is likely
that there will still be some steam coming from the
soleplate for a short while after you have released
the trigger. This is normal and will eventually stop
after several seconds. If it doesn't you may have
accidentally activated the steam boost in which case
press the steam trigger again to switch off the steam
boost.
WARNING: The steam supply cord
(22)
will get hot
during use.

Steam boost
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 a powerful shot of steam during
ironing, simply press the steam trigger (4) twice
in quick succession. To turn this off, press the
steam trigger again.
To conserve water in the tank, we recommend
you switch off the steam boost when the iron is
not in use.
NOTE: The product may occasionally produce a
pumping sound during steam ironing. This is
normal and is caused by water being pumped
from the water tank to the steam generator. If
the pumping sound suddenly becomes louder
or the steam diminishes, check and refill the
water tank if it has become empty.

Dry ironing
To use your steam generator as a dry iron only,
follow steps 2, 3 and 4 of ‘Using the Steam
Generator’ on page 6. You do not need to put
water in the tank or select a steam level. Press
the steam trigger
(4) at least once every 10
minutes, or the product will automatically turn
off.
Auto shut-off
If
the iron
(11) is not used for 10 minutes, the
product will automatically turn off for safety and
to save energy, and a beep will be heard.
To restart, press the On/Off power button (20)
(see step 2 of ‘Using the Steam Generator’ on
page 6) and wait for the temperature to rise
again.
Steam function
During steaming, small amounts of water may be
ejected from the soleplate
(6)
. This is normal and
can be avoided by using the steam for short
amou
nts of time and only when the iron is at the
correct temperature (the temperature indicator
light (5) on the iron (11) goes out when ready).
Sudden jolts of the boiler unit can also cause
water droplets on the soleplate; therefore, do not
move the base unit during ironing.
Vertical steam
Vertical steam is useful for removing creases
from hanging clothes, curtains, upholstery, etc.
Hold the iron
(11)
between 1cm and 2cm away
from the item and press the steam trigger
(4)
twice in quick succession for a longer boost of
steam. To turn the steam boost off, press the
steam trigger again.
WARNING: Do not use the vertical steam
feature on clothes that are being worn.

Self clean
When the boiler requires descaling, the descale
button (19) will illuminate. When this happens, the
boiler must be descaled. The button’s light will go
out only after the scale has been removed.
1Unplug the appliance from the mains outlet and
leave to cool for two hours.
2Lock the iron (11) in place on the base unit (14).
See ‘Storing the steam iron’ on page 10.
3Remove the detachable water tank (3) to prevent
water spillage and upturn the steam generator.
This reveals the boiler screw (28) on the
underside of the base unit.
4Remove the boiler screw by unscrewing it
anti-clockwise.
WARNING: Never remove the boiler screw
when the steam generator is hot.
5
Remove the boiler tube (26) and the attached
boiler tube attachment (24) from their storage
position.
6Push the boiler tube attachment (24) firmly into
the hole where the boiler screw was removed
from. Ensure the boiler tube (26) is sitting within
the boiler tube crevice (27).
7Turn the steam generator back over so the iron
(11) is uppermost.
8Fill the detachable water tank and replace it back
into the base unit (14).
Never pour any descaling solution or any other
chemicals into the water tank. This will
damage the product. Only use clean water.
9Place the front end of the steam generator
securely over a sink so the boiler tube (26) drops
down into the sink. Ensure the boiler tube is not
squashed between the steam generator and the
edge of the sink.
10 Plug the appliance back in at the mains and turn
the power on.
11 Press and hold the descale button (19) and the
steam trigger (4) at the same time for one
second. A beep will be heard and the descale
button will begin to flash. The steam generator
will commence self-cleaning and scale and water
will begin to flow through the boiler tube into the
sink. The process will take around two minutes to
complete. When finished, three beeps will be
heard, the descale button’s light will extinguish
and the appliance will shut off automatically.

13 Once cooled, remove the boiler tube attachment
and boiler tube and replace them back into their
storage position.
14 Replace the boiler screw and screw it into
position in a clockwise direction. Ensure the
boiler screw is tightened fully.
15The descale button’s light will extinguish the next
time you use the product. Please wait for up to
one minute whilst it pumps water and registers
that the boiler has been cleaned.
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 (6),
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.
Allow the appliance to cool.
Remove the detachable water tank (3) by
squeezing the water tank release button (2).
Empty the water tank. Once the water tank is
empty, re-attach it to the base unit (14).
Wrap the power cord (21) and steam supply cord
(22) loosely in long loops. Gently push the looped
steam supply cord and power cord into the steam
supply cord storage
(23)
and power cord storage
(16)
respectively. Avoid kinking of cables,
particularly where they meet
the base unit.
WARNING: Do not pull too tightly on the steam
supply cord or on the cable support (10) when
looping the power cord (21) and steam supply
cord (22). Damage to cables caused by
wrapping too tightly will not be covered by the
guarantee.
Storing the steam iron
Lock the iron (11) into the storage position on top
of the base unit (14) by sliding the tip of the
soleplate (6) under the iron locking hook (12).
With the lower end of the soleplate in position
adjacent to the lower end of the iron rest plate
(13), slide the iron-to-base lock (9) to the position
marked with a padlock icon - this secures the
soleplate in place. Once the iron-to-base lock is
locked securely, the iron can be carried by the
iron handle (7).

Troubleshooting
•No power or not heating up.
•Overheating or not getting hot enough.
•Not steaming or poor steam.
•Dripping from the holes in the soleplate.
•Tripping Electrics.
Problem Solution
•Steams continuously.
•The self clean is not working.
1.Check the fuse and the fuse rating (should be 13amp).
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 dial has not been set to MIN.
1. Adjust the temperature dial 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. There will be a short delay with a steam generator whilst the
steam travels from the base to the iron.
2. Check that there is enough water in the tank.
3. If the iron’s auto shut off feature has activated, wake up the
iron and allow it to reach temperature before using steam.
4. If the descale button is illuminated, perform a self-clean to
clear away limescale inside the iron (refer to “Self Clean”
section).
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 iron’s 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. It is normal for some residual steam to continue through the
soleplate for a short while after releasing the steam trigger.
2. The steam boost feature may have been activated by
pressing the steam trigger twice in quick succession. This
can be turned off by pressing the steam trigger again.
1. In order to perform a self clean, the descale button has to
be illuminated.
2. The unit must have cooled down enough. Please leave the
unit to cool down for longer and try again.
3. Ensure the water tank has enough water in it.
4. Ensure you are pressing and holding both the descale
button and the steam trigger at the same time until a beep
is heard.
