Frequently Asked Questions - DBS 3024 CLATRONIC

How to descale my Clatronic DBS 3024 iron?

Use the integrated anti-scale function: fill the water tank, set the steam to maximum and press the cleaning button. Repeat if necessary.

What to do if steam does not come out?

Make sure the water tank is sufficiently filled and the iron has reached the proper temperature. If the problem persists, clean the soleplate with a damp cloth to remove residue.

My iron stops by itself, is that normal?

Yes, the iron is equipped with an automatic shut-off function that cuts the power after 8 minutes of inactivity in a vertical position and 30 seconds in a horizontal position.

How to use the spray function?

Fill the water tank, then press the spray button located on the handle to spray a fine mist on the fabric. This helps to remove stubborn wrinkles.

Can I use tap water?

Yes, but to prevent limescale buildup, it is recommended to use a mixture of tap water and demineralized water, or distilled water.

How to clean the iron soleplate?

Wait for the iron to cool down, then wipe the soleplate with a damp, non-abrasive cloth. Do not use chemical products or metal sponges.

What is the water tank capacity?

The water tank has a capacity of 300 ml, allowing you to iron several garments without refilling.

How to adjust the temperature?

Turn the temperature adjustment knob located under the handle. Consult the fabric guide on the appliance to choose the appropriate temperature.

What to do if my iron leaks?

Check that the tank cap is properly closed. If the leak persists, reduce steam or fill less water. If the problem continues, contact customer service.

Using the Machine

NOTE: Only clothes should to be ironed with this machine.

• Remove any protective fi lms and adhesive labels from the stainless steel soleplate before using the appliance.
  • Completely unwind the line cord.

First Use of the Machine

• Clean the ironing base with a slightly damp cloth.
• In order to remove all residues before initial use, please pass the iron a few times over an old clean cloth.
• Open the seal (7) of the water tank and fi ll it through the opening with not more than 0.6 litres of pure distilled water. In order to prevent the contents of the tank from leaking, do not overfi ll the tank. In this way you will prevent any excess water from coming out of the soleplate.
• Then re-tighten the seal. We recommend rinsing out the water tank approximately 3 times with fresh water.
• Do not fill battery water, water from the clothes dryer and water containing additives (such as starch, perfume, softener or other chemicals) into the water reservoir. This could damage the iron due to residues forming in the steam chamber. These residues may cause impurities to the fabric when dropping out of the holes in the soleplate.

Connected Wattage

The station has a total maximum wattage of 2000 W. With this connected load a separate supply line protected by a 16 A household circuit breaker is recommended.

CAUTION:

Warning - Danger of Overload! Do not use any extension leads or multiple sockets as this device is too powerful.

Using the Machine

Ironing without steam

1. Sort out the garments according to their ironing temperatures.
2. Always set the temperature control to „MIN“ before connecting the appliance to a power point, or before disconnecting it.
3. Electrical connection:
4. Make sure that the iron voltage (see name plate) and the line voltage match.
5. Only connect the machine to a properly installed safety socket, 230 V/50 Hz.

6. Start with the lower temperatures. It is set with the thermostat (1):
   • Synthetics, silk low temperature
   • Wool medium temperature
   ••• Cotton, linen high temperature
   MAX maximum temperature

7. Place the iron on its stand.

8. The control lamp on the handle of the iron shows that it is heating up. As soon as the control lamp goes off the operating temperature has been reached. Now you can start ironing. Always turn the temperature control to MIN after use and remove the mains plug (the control lamp in the handle goes off).

Steam Ironing

For this a high temperature is needed.

1. Turn the temperature control (1) to position „•••“ (cotton, linen).
2. Turn the O/I operating switch (10) on the station to position I. The control lamp in the switch shows that it is on standby. When the control lamp (5) lights up there is enough steam for steam operation.

WARNING:

The steam is hot! There is a danger of scalding!

1. With the steam jet button, "you can create a short and powerful jet of steam."

How can I replenish the water during operation?

If the pressure falls during operation you can fill more water into the tank at the same time.

1. First turn operating switch to O (The lamp in the I/O switch goes off).

2.

NOTE:

If there is still some residual pressure in the water tank, a safety lock prevents the water tank catch (7) from being opened.

WARNING:

The residual pressure first has to be relieved before the device can be safely opened.

1. With the steam jet button, "you can now release the residual steam pressure. If no more steam comes out of the soleplate, please remove the plug and release the water tank lock (7) carefully.

WARNING:

The steam is hot! There is a danger of scalding!

OTE:

If it is not yet possible to open the lock of the water tank the device needs a further 2 to 3 minutes to cool down. Then release the residual pressure again.

1. Use the funnel (12) to fill pure distilled water from a measuring beaker into the water tank. Do not overfill! Take care of water splashes that might come out of the boiler. In order to prevent the water from splashing it should be filled into the funnel slowly after the safety lock has been opened.

2. Fasten the safety lock again.

3. Insert the power plug back into the socket.

4. Always turn the temperature control to MIN after use, turn the operating switch (10) to O and remove the mains plug from the socket (the lamp in the I/O switch goes off).

WARNING:

Never open the water tank lock while the device is being operated.

When ironing at low temperatures, please ensure that you do not use any steam.

Vertical Steam

This can be used to produce a jet of steam in a vertical direction.

Self-Cleaning

Due to the large amount of heat produced and the pressure of the steam, residues that form in the soleplate are removed automatically.

Cleaning

• Always remove the mains lead before cleaning!
- Wait until the machine has cooled down completely.
- Clean the casing with a slightly damp cloth.
- Clean the sole plate and the rest with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents!
- Any residual water can remain in the water tank, but should be poured out if it has been in the tank for a prolonged period.
• The device must never be immersed in water!
