• Once you have selected the desired scrubbing level from the remote control or the app, the robot vacuum cleaner will start the All in One function to vacuum, scrub, and sweep simultaneously thanks to its mixed tank.
  

Note

• If you only wish to mop, do not fill the water tank.
• When the robot vacuum cleaner has the mixed tank with water in it, it will rotate on its own to dampen the mop as it leaves the base.
• To ensure a perfect scrubbing from the start, it is suggested to dampen the mop evenly with water before fixing it to the mixed tank. It is also recommended to wash the mop after every use.
• It is recommended to be present when the robot vacuum cleaner is scrubbing.
• When the robot vacuum cleaner returns to the charging base, you must remove the mop. Do not leave the robot vacuum cleaner charging with the mop assembled.

Spiral mode

• When you select this mode, the robot vacuum cleaner will intensively clean a specific spot at maximum power. It will start cleaning at a specific spot and will move outwards in a spiral motion (1 metre). Then, it will return to the starting spot in an inwards spiral motion again.
• Before using this mode, place it in the spot you wish to clean.
• When it finishes and returns to the starting point, the robot vacuum cleaner will stop at the same point where it started cleaning.
• Press the Spiral cleaning button on the remote control or the app to activate this mode.

Edge Mode

• When this mode is selected, the robot vacuum cleaner will clean along walls and around furniture (e.g., table or chair legs).
• Press the Edge cleaning button on the remote control or on the app.

Back Home mode

Press the Back home button on the robot, vacuum cleaner, on the remote control, or on the app (with a house icon) to send the robot to the charging base. The robot vacuum cleaner will stop vacuuming until it reaches the base.

Manual mode

Select the manual cleaning option in the app or use the directional arrows on the remote control to manually control your robot vacuum cleaner.

Power Level function

Select the power level on the remote control or on the app to control the robot vacuum cleaner’s suction power level during cleaning. There are 3 power levels: Eco, Normal, and Turbo.

Cleaning schedule

To make cleaning easier, the robot vacuum cleaner has a function that allows it to be programmed daily from the app. According to the setting, the robot vacuum cleaner will automatically start cleaning in the selected days at the desired time.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

High-efficiency filter. Fig. 8.

• The high-efficiency filter is designed with fibres that help trap dust particles, dust mites, pollen… It is very important to periodically clean the filter, to prevent 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.

Primary mesh filter and sponge filter. Fig. 8.

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 on the sensors.

Cleaning the main brush. Fig. 9.

• The main brush rotates at high speed and helps pushing the dirt into the suction mouth. This brush is in contact with the floor, and therefore with dirt, so it can wear out overtime, negatively affecting cleaning efficiency. For this reason, it is suggested to replace the main brush after a maximum of 320 hours or less.
  

1. Slightly press the main brush frame’s tabs to open the main brush compartment and remove it.
2. Remove hair, lint, and other dirt trapped in the brush and around the shafts with the help of the self-cleaning brush.
3. Clear and clean the robot vacuum cleaner’s suction channel.
4. 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.

Side brushes are designed with multiple bristles and are used to push dirt towards 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 lengthen the battery shelf life, leave the robot vacuum cleaner to charge in the charging base when not in use.
• Remove the battery and store it in a safe, dry place if the robot vacuum cleaner will not be used for a long period of time.

Follow the below instructions to replace the batteries: Fig. 11:

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

Charging base. Fig. 12:

Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to wipe dust off the charging terminals of the base.
