How to Solder
below for handy tips.
Do not apply to the same place for a long time.
Do not leave the device unattended when switched on.
6.2
Auto Sleep Mode
When the soldering iron is placed in its holder, the switched-on station automatically
lowers the iron temperature (sleep mode). As soon as you pick up the iron, the station
exits the sleep mode.
6.3
Switching Off the Station
After use, place the iron in its holder and switch off the station.
After switching off, leave the power cord plugged in for a few minutes. When you switch
off the unit, the automatic cooling function blows cooling air through the heater pipe for
a short period. This protects the heater from damage and extends its lifetime. Do not
disconnect the mains plug during this cooling process.
