When the iron is plugged in and turned on, the power indicator will light steadily,
indicating there is power to the iron. Once the selected temperature is reached, the light
will go off and you can begin to Iron.
A 30-minute timer will start once the unit has been plugged in. After 30 minutes, the
indicator light will begin to flash indicating it will automatically shut-off.
To reset the iron:
Unplug the iron and then put it back into the wall outlet. This will restart the timer for the
auto shut-off feature.
WARNING: The timed auto shut-off is a safety feature, not a recommended means for
turning your iron off. See the "Storing the Iron" section for information on turning off your
iron and storing it safely between uses.
