Auto Sleep Mode
When the soldering iron is placed in its holder, the switched-on station automatically
lowers the iron temperature after 20 minutes of inactivity (sleep mode). As soon as you
pick up the iron, the station exits the sleep mode.
6.4
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.
Wait until the cooling process has stopped, then disconnect the power plug. The device
uses a small amount of electrical power, even if it is switched off.
