It means you can use it in the USA and in Europe at the flick of a switch and the appropriate plug adapter.

heating appliances that are dual voltage means the heating element is center tapped. when the center tap is not used, it is 240 volts. when the center tap is used, it is for 120 volts. this is not automatic, look for a switch or plug that is changed. heating appliances are frequency independent, they work on both 50 or 60 Hz, or even DC.

It means that the iron will work in different countries with the proper adapters for the plug end.

The US uses 120Volts for appliances like your iron while Europe generally uses 220V.
