Owner questions
Questions about the Active 3000.
What’s new about the S-Line facelift?
Short answer: The S-Line facelift updates the exterior and adds step and sun ledge cleaning, with swivel cables and app control on the S2000 and S3000.
Models covered: Dolphin S2000 and Dolphin Active 3000.
The S-Line facelift includes these updates:
- Updated exterior: The outer casing has a fresh look, including redesigned side panels.
- Cable handling and navigation: On the S2000 and S3000, a swivel cable helps limit cable tangling, while a rear combined brush improves navigation.
- Step cleaning: A new jet-powered stair-cleaning component helps clean pool steps effectively.
- Sun ledge cleaning: The new models can clean sun ledges where the water is at least 12"/30 cm deep.
- App control: Use the MyDolphin™ Plus app for smart control of the S2000 and S3000.
How do the S1000/S2000/S3000 clean stairs and sun ledges?
Short answer: Stair cleaning runs automatically in Full Coverage cleaning mode, and sun ledges require a minimum water depth of 12"-15".
Applies to: Dolphin S2000, Dolphin Active 3000.
The S1000/S2000/S3000 detect steps and climb stairs. On the way down, a water jet turns on automatically to flush away dirt and debris.
This feature works automatically in Full Coverage cleaning mode. To clean sun ledges, it requires a minimum water depth of 12"-15".
How can I schedule cleanings with the S2000 and S3000?
Short answer: Schedule cleanings in the MyDolphin™ Plus app using the S2000 Weekly Timer or the S3000 Smart Weekly Timer.
Set up your cleaning schedule in the MyDolphin™ Plus app. The timer options depend on your model:
- S2000: Use the in-app Weekly Timer to schedule Full Coverage cleaning.
- S3000: Use the Smart Weekly Timer to schedule cleanings, set the cycle duration and choose from six cleaning modes.
Depending on the selected mode, cleaning cycles last 2 to 3 hours. Fast Mode runs for 1 hour only.
What does the S3000 feature?
Short answer: The S3000 has six cleaning modes, stair and sun ledge cleaning, fine and ultra-fine filtration, app controls, and a caddy with a cover.
Applies to: Dolphin Active 3000
The S3000 comes with these cleaning features, app controls, and accessories:
- Storage and transport: An included caddy makes the robot easier to move and store. A caddy cover is also included.
- Scrubbing: A front Active brush works with a combined rear brush for thorough scrubbing of pool surfaces.
- Filtration: The combined double-seal filter basket comes with fine and ultra-fine cartridges. You also get an additional inner-layer basket and two extra ultra-fine filter cartridges for added filtration.
- Cleaning options: Choose from six cleaning modes. The robot also offers jet-powered stair cleaning and sun ledge cleaning.
- Cable management: A cable swivel helps keep the cable from tangling while the robot runs.
MyDolphin Plus app features
- Pickup: Use this feature to help retrieve the robot.
- Cleaning history: Review the last 10 cleaning cycles.
- Smart Weekly: Schedule cleanings and select the cycle type and duration.
Is the new S-Line only cosmetic, or does it change how the robot cleans?
Short answer: The S-Line update adds a new look, jet-powered stair cleaning, sun ledge cleaning and enhanced modes without changing core cleaning performance.

The S-Line update for Dolphin S2000 and Dolphin Active 3000 is more than cosmetic. It combines a redesigned side panel and a more modern appearance with added cleaning capabilities.
The robot still uses the CleverClean™ algorithm for reliable, efficient pool coverage. Its core cleaning performance stays the same.
The update also adds:
- Jet-powered stair cleaning
- Sun ledge cleaning
- Enhanced cleaning modes
These additions expand what the robot can clean, rather than replacing its core cleaning technology.
