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 refrigerator. WARNING : When filling your iron with tap water always use the beaker provided. Never fill directly under the tap. Spray button Shot of steam button Variable steam control Filling hole Spray nozzle Soleplate Temperature control dial Water tank Temperature indicator light and dial pointer Temperature control Plug in the iron and switch on. Set the to the temperature temperature control dial 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. This is perfectly normal as it shows that the iron is maintaining the heat setting you have chosen. It is always a good idea to begin with `cool' fabrics and work up to higher settings. An iron heats up quicker than it cools down so you'll save time and electricity. Before use Note : The steam facility should only be used on garments which are suitable for ironing at the 3 dot setting. If they don't you should follow the fabric guide on the rear of the iron, 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. 4 Features of your iron Temperature indicator light The indicator light shows that the iron is warming up. [. . . ] Important : The flex can be damaged if wound too tightly around the iron after use. The iron must be cool before winding the flex and storing on its heel. 5 Maintenance Self cleaning Your iron will give the best ironing results and last longer if you apply "self-cleaning" once a month to remove any scale, fluff etc. Fill the iron as described in the section of `How to fill water'. Turn the temperature dial in a clockwise direction to the maximum setting. [. . . ]
