This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically

water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens you may
hear a click.

ironing (
2 to MAX). Make sure that the steam setting you select
is suitable for the ironing temperature selected (see 'Steam
ironing' in chapter 'Using the appliance').
The iron will start steaming as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.
