The "iron ready" light of my Philips Steam Iron is blinking

Only applicable for the following models: Azur 8000 Series (DST80xx).

The "iron-ready light" will blink when the iron is heating up. It will become steady to indicate that the iron is ready for use.

For irons with the Auto Shut Off (ASO) feature, the "iron-ready light" will start blinking when:

• The iron remains stationary horizontally on its soleplate for a specific period. For irons with temperature dial: 30 seconds. For Optimal Temp irons: 2 minutes.
• Standing stationary vertically on its heel rest for 8 minutes (for all models).

While in ASO state, the iron will stop heating up and start to cool down.
When the iron is moved or put in motion, the "iron-ready light" will start to breathe or remain steady ON (model dependent), indicating it is heating up again.
Once the iron-ready light stops blinking and remains steady ON/turns OFF (model dependent), the soleplate is heated and the iron is ready to be used.

If your iron has a dedicated Auto Shut Off light, the "iron-ready light" will not be lit when the iron enters the ASO state. The above lighting behaviour still applies.
