CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

High-efficiency filter. Fig. 8. 9.

• The high-efficiency filter is designed with fibers that help trap dust particles, dust mites, and pollen… It is very important to periodically clean the filter, to avoid these particles from building up in the filter, causing efficiency loss.
• It is convenient to carry out this maintenance once a week.
• It is recommended to replace the high-efficiency filter with a new one without exceeding 160 cleaning hours.

Recommendation

• You can remove dirt from the high-efficiency filter with a small brush or gently shake the filter on a hard surface to remove the dust. The high-efficiency filter cannot be washed.

Mesh primary filter and sponge filter.

• The filtering system is featured with a primary mesh filter and a sponge filter, located next to the high-efficiency filter. It is suggested to replace them either after a maximum of 160 hours of use or when they are worn out due to operation.

Recommendation

• Dirt can be removed with a small brush or by shaking carefully against a hard surface for dust to fall off. You can also use warm water without detergents to obtain better results. Always make sure they are completely dry before installing them again; otherwise, moisture can reach the robot vacuum cleaner’s motor and damage it.

Cleaning the fall-detection sensors

• Use a clean, dry, and soft cloth to wipe off any dust from the fall-detection sensors located on the robot vacuum cleaner’s lower part.

Warning

• Do not apply cleaning products directly to the sensors.

Cleaning the main brush.

• The main brush rotates at high speed and helps pull the dirt into the suction mouth. This brush is in contact with the floor, and therefore with dirt, so it can be worn out over time, negatively affecting cleaning efficiency.
• For this reason, it is suggested to replace the main brush after a maximum of 320 hours or less.
• Slightly press the main brush frame’s tabs in order to open the main brush storage gap and to remove it.
• Remove hair, lint, and other dirt trapped in the brush and around the shafts with the help of the self-cleaning brush.
• Clear and clean the robot vacuum cleaner’s suction channel.
• Reinstall the main brush and its frame.

Recommendation

• It is recommended to clean the main brush once a week with the help of the self-cleaning brush.

Side brushes. Fig. 10. Fig. 11:

• Side brushes are designed with multiple bristles and are used to push dirt toward the suction mouth and to thoroughly clean edges and corners. These brushes can wear out over time,
• negatively affecting cleaning efficiency. For this reason, it is suggested to replace each side brush after a maximum of 220 hours or less.

Recommendation

• It is recommended to clean the side brushes once a week with the help of the self-cleaning brush.

Sensors

• The robot vacuum cleaner has different types of sensors, for example, proximity sensors that allow the robot to move around while detecting obstacles or fall-detection sensors that help the robot detect slopes or possible gaps/unevenness such as staircases. These sensors are always in contact with dust particles and therefore can deteriorate over time, causing possible navigation errors.
• It is suggested to clean all the robot sensors with a dry and soft cloth after a maximum of 35 hours of operation or less.

Charging and replacing the battery

• To extend battery life, leave the robot vacuum cleaner charging on the self-emptying base whenever not in use.
• Remove the battery and store it in a safe, dry place if the device will not be used for a long period of time.

To replace the battery, follow the instructions below.

1. Unscrew the screws on the battery compartment, remove the battery cover, and the battery itself.
2. Insert the new battery with the battery label facing up.
3. Put the battery and the battery cover back in place and properly fix the screws back again.

Self-emptying base

• The light indicator on the base will turn red when the bag is not installed or when the base detects abnormal behavior.
• When the robot is charging, the light will stay green.

Opening

• Open the lid.
• Pull on the handle to remove the dirt-disposal bag.
• Put in a new one.
• Close the lid again.
• Cleaning the dirt duct
• If the light indicator is red when the dirt-disposal bag is not full, unplug and rotate the unit to check if there is a blockage in the transparent cover. If so, remove the screws with a screwdriver, open the transparent cover, and remove what’s causing the blockage. Then, re-screw the cover.

Maintenance

• Cleaning of the infrared lens and the charge indicator. Fig. 12.
• Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to wipe dust from the infrared lens and charge indicator. It is recommended to clean them once a month.

Cleaning the fan support Fig. 13.

• Check the fan filter holder for lint and dirt remains. If so, remove them with a clean, dry cloth. It is recommended to clean it once a month.
