I believe that is how the safety feature works.
Once the iron detects no movement for a certain period of time (the iron assumes you have finished ironing) the iron will shut of the heating element.
One you have moved it around, the timer should prevent it from auto shutting down for a period of time.

No, it used to heat up on it's own and then shut off if left for too long. Now, it will not heat up unless I hold it at an odd angle, and even then it will click back off. All this is indicated by the sensor light on the top of the handle. RED means the iron is on and YELLOW means the iron is heating. The heating stops before reaching the desired temp.
I've had it for years. Loved it but no more warranty. :(
Thank you for your help!
