GETTING TO KNOW YOUR
WESTINGHOUSE WST5001ZE
IRON - FULLY FEATURED
(Cont.)
PATENTED AUTOMATIC SAFETY SHUT-OFF
This iron has two kinds of safety shut-off mechanisms. One is a patent-
ed, touch-sensitive "brain" in the handle which turns the iron on or off
when it is in the horizontal position. The other is a timer that automati-
cally shuts the iron off if it is left resting in the upright vertical position
for more than 15 minutes.
Horizontal Position: When the iron is plugged in and resting in the
horizontal position, it will remain on as long as your hand is making
contact with the handle. Once you take your hand off the handle, the
iron automatically turns itself off. The green Auto Shut-Off Light and red
Power On/Heating Light will both turn off. For example, if you are iron-
ing and leave the iron with the Stainless Steel Soleplate down on the
ironing board to answer the phone, the iron will automatically begin to
de-energize. Although de-energized and starting to cool, the iron still
remains hot. Use caution to prevent burning or scorching when leaving
the iron with the soleplate in the down position. The iron will turn back
on as soon as you grip the handle and resume ironing. Important: To
return the iron to the desired temperature, allow it to rest in the upright
position until the red Power On/Heating Light goes off.
Vertical Position: When the iron is plugged in and resting on its heel,
it will remain on for 15 minutes, allowing ample time to reposition gar-
ments during the ironing process. If the iron is left resting for more than
15 minutes, it will automatically shut-off. To begin ironing again after
the timer has shut off the iron, pick it up by the handle. The green and
red lights will come on. Move the Temperature Control to desired set-
ting and return it to its upright position. When the temperature setting
has been reached, the red Power On/Heating Light will go out and you
are ready to iron.
POWER ON/HEATING
When the iron is heating up or the temperature setting has been adjust-
ed, the red Power On/Heating Light will come on. When the tempera-
ture setting has been reached, the red Power On/Heating Light will go
off.
