Frequently Asked Questions - TB402410 SIEMENS

How do I descale my Siemens TB402410 iron?

To descale, fill the water tank with a mixture of water and white vinegar (1:1), heat the iron to max, then use the self-cleaning function. Repeat if necessary and rinse with clean water.

What type of water should I use?

Use distilled or demineralized water to prevent scale buildup. Avoid tap water if it's hard.

Before using your appliance for the first time

During it first use the iron may produce certain vapours and odours that will die away after a few minutes.

Using your appliance

1. Filling the water tank

↑ See the leaflet sides

This appliance has been designed to use normal tap water.

• The addition of other liquids, (unless recommended by Siemens) such as perfume, will damage the appliance.
• Do not use condensation water from tumble dryers, air conditioning systems or similar.

Any damage caused by the use of the aforementioned products will make the guarantee void.

Set the steam regulator (3) to the position and unplug the iron from the mains!

1. Open the water inlet lid (5).
2. Fill the water tank (11). Never fill beyond the level mark for maximum filling (8).
3. Close the water inlet lid.

Tip To prolong the optimum steam function, you may mix tap water with distilled water 1:1. If the tap water in your district is very hard, mix tap water with distilled water 1:2.

You can inquire about the water hardness with your local water supplier.

2. Setting the temperature

↑ See the leaflet sides

The temperature control (12) adjusts the temperature of the soleplate (7).

Set the temperature control to the corresponding position by lining it up with the temperature index (9) on the iron.

Temperature Suitable for:

• Synthetics
• Silk – Wool

●●● Cotton

max Linen

The pilot light (13) switches on while the appliance is heating up and switches off as soon as the set temperature is reached. If the temperature of the hot iron drops, you can continue ironing while the iron heats up again to the set temperature.

3. Ironing with steam

↑ See the leaflet sides

The steam regulator (3) is used to adjust the amount of steam produced when ironing.

Temperature control (12)

Recommended position of the steam regulator (3)

Tip: For better ironing results, iron the last strokes without steam to dry the garment.

4. Shot of steam

↑ See the leaflet sides

This can be used to remove stubborn wrinkles or to press in a sharp crease or pleat.

1. Set the temperature control (12) to at least the “●●” position.
2. Press the shot of steam button [icon] (2) repeatedly with intervals of at least 5 seconds.

5. Vertical steam

↑ See the leaflet sides

This can be used to remove creases from hanging clothes, curtains etc.

1. Set the temperature control (12) to "max".
2. Hang article of clothing on a clothes hanger.
3. Operate the iron in a vertical position at a distance of 10 cm / 4 in, and press the shot of steam button [💡] (2) repeatedly with pauses of at least 5 seconds.

6. Ironing without steam

↑ See the leaflet sides

This enables the iron to be used for dry ironing.

Set steam regulator (3) to the [−position.

7. Drip protection \*

↑ See the leaflet sides

If the temperature is set too low, the steam is automatically switched off to avoid dripping. There may be an audible click when this occurs.

8. Spray

↑ See the leaflet sides

This can be used to remove stubborn wrinkles.

Do not use the spray function with silk.

9. "startStop Control" function \*

↑ See the leaflet sides

The "startStop Control" function makes the iron heat up only while ironing.

Thus, safety and saving energy get increased.

1. Plug in the iron.
2. "startStop Control" light (15*) flashes while resting, and will show a continuous light while ironing.

3. If the iron is resting for more than 12 seconds, the iron will stop heating automatically.

4. Once ironing is restarted, the iron will heat up again.

Initial heating up process: it is not necessary to grip the handle until the iron heats up to the set temperature. Once reached such temperature, the pilot light (13) goes off.

10. After ironing

↑ See the leaflet sides

1. Switch the steam regulator (3) from t_0 to "max" and back again several times (self-cleaning).
2. Empty the tank. Hold the iron with the point down and shake lightly.
3. Store standing on the rear, not on the base.
4. Do not wrap the power cord (14) too tight!

Tips to help you save energy

Steam production consumes the most energy. To help minimise the energy used, follow the advice below:

1. Start by ironing the fabrics that require the lowest ironing temperature. Check the recommended ironing temperature in the label on the garment.
2. Regulate the steam according to the selected ironing temperature, following the instructions in this manual.
   3 Only use steam if necessary. If possible, use the spray function instead.
   Try to iron the fabrics while they are still damp and reduce the steam setting. Steam will be generated from the fabrics rather than the iron.
   If you tumble dry your fabrics before ironing them, set the tumble drier on the 'iron dry' program.
3. If the fabrics are damp enough, turn off the steam regulator (3) completely.
4. Stand the iron upright during pauses. Resting it horizontally with the steam regulator on generates wasted steam.

Cleaning & Maintenance

↑ See the leaflet sides

Attention! Risk of burns! Always unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operation on it.

1. If the iron is only slightly soiled, pull out the plug and allow the soleplate (7) to cool down. Wipe the housing and the soleplate with a damp cotton cloth only.
2. If the cloth is synthetic, it may melt due to the high temperature on the soleplate, switch off the steam and rub off any residue immediately with a thickly folded, damp cotton cloth.
3. To keep the soleplate smooth, you should avoid hard contact with metal objects. Never use a scouring pad, or chemicals to clean the soleplate.

Multiple descaling system

t See the leaflet sides

A self-clean

Each time you use the steam regulator (3), the "self-clean" system cleans the mechanism of scale deposits.

B calc'nClean

The “calc'nClean” function helps to remove scale particles out of the steam chamber. Use this function approximately every 2 weeks if the water in your area is very hard.

① Unplug the iron from the mains socket, set the steam regulator (3) to the [position and fill the water tank (11) with water.
② Set the temperature control (12) to the "max" position and plug in the iron.
3 After the necessary warm-up period, the pilot light (13) goes out. Then, unplug the iron (very important!).
4 Hold the iron over a sink. Press the “clean” button (10) and shake the iron until approximately one third of the water capacity of the tank is evaporated. Boiling water and steam will come out, carrying scale or deposits that might be there.

5 Release the "clean" button, and gently shake the iron for some seconds.
6 Repeat the steps 4 and 5 three times until the tank is empty.
⑦ Then plug the iron in and heat it up again until the remaining water has evaporated.
Push the "clean" button a few times more to clean the valve.
8 Unplug the iron and let the soleplate (7) cool down. Wipe the soleplate with a damp cotton cloth only.

C "calc'nClean" with descaling liquid \*

For deep descaling, it is recommended to use the descaling liquid especially developed by Siemens. This procedure should be carried out every 3 months.

1. Fill the water tank (11) with tap water mixed with a measure (25 ml) of the descaling liquid (16 ^* ).
2. Then follow the procedure described above in section "calc'nClean" (steps 2 to 8).

The descaling liquid may be purchased from our after-sales service or specialist shops.

Name of accessory: TDZ1101

D anti-calc

The “anti-calc” cartridge has been designed to reduce the build-up of scale produced during steam ironing, helping to extend the useful life of your iron. Nevertheless the “anti-calc” cartridge cannot remove all of the scale that is produced naturally over time.
