Smart Soldering Iron Safety Precautions & Power Down

crwdns2931653:01crwdne2931653:0 How to read the Touch-Safe Indicator LED




• The color of the Touch-Safe Indicator LED provides information about the status of the soldering iron tip. Note: the soldering iron grip is always safe to touch.
• The LED only functions when the soldering iron is connected to a power source—so use caution when handling an unplugged iron if you don't know how hot it is.
• Blue LED: The iron has cooled below 40 °C (100 °F), and the tip is safe to touch.
• Purple LED: When pulsing, the iron is actively heating up or cooling down. When static, the iron is in Idle Mode. The iron tip is not safe to touch.
• Orange LED: The iron has reached the set temperature and is ready to solder. The iron tip is not safe to touch.

• The sliding power switch has a built-in color indicator for each position:
• Orange: ON
• Blue: OFF
• Slide the power switch to the blue OFF position.
• The LED will turn purple and pulse to show the iron is powering down.
• Leave the soldering iron connected until the indicator ring turns blue, indicating it's now safe to touch the soldering iron tip.
• Remember: The LED only functions when the soldering iron is connected to a power source—so use caution when handling an unplugged iron if you don't know how hot it is.
