Drip stop (specific types only)
This iron is equipped with a drip-stop function: the iron automatically
stops producing steam when the temperature is too low, to prevent
water from dripping out of the soleplate. When this happens you may
hear a sound.
automatic shut-off function (specific types only)
The automatic shut-off function automatically switches off the iron if it
has not been moved for a while.
The red auto-off indication of the temperature light flashes to
indicate that the iron has been switched off by the automatic shut-
off function (Fig. 6).
To let the iron heat up again:
1 Pick up the iron or move it slightly
The red auto-off indication goes out.
If the temperature of the soleplate has dropped below the set
ironing temperature, the amber temperature light goes on.
If the amber temperature light goes on after you have moved the
iron, wait for it to go out before you start ironing.
Note: If the amber temperature light does not go on after you move the iron,
the soleplate still has the right temperature and the iron is ready for use.
