  • Please charge the device for more than 6 hours when using it for the first time.
• Dual container for water and dust
  • The device is equipped with a dual tank for water and dust, thanks to which it is possible to vacuum and mop at the same time.
  • The dust container contains a washable HEPA filter, which should be washed with clean running water approximately every 15-30 days.

Connecting to the application

1. Download the app by scanning the QR code with your mobile phone or search „Niceboy ION“ on Google Play/Apple App Store and download the app.
2. Open the „Niceboy ION“ app and register a new account or use your existing one.
3. After logging in to the application, to add a product, click on the „+“ in the upper right corner and then on „Add device“.
4. Then go to the “Robotic Vacuum Cleaners” tab and select “Charles Q10”.
5. Place the vacuum cleaner in the charging base and turn it on with the power button.
6. There are two ways to connect to the application. For a faster and easier connection, we recommend using EZ mode.
7. EZ/Bluetooth mode – After selecting the Charles Q10 vacuum cleaner, select your WIFI and enter the password. Continue to the next page using the „Next“ button. Subsequently, select EZ/Bluetooth mode in the upper right corner and press the power button on the vacuum cleaner for approximately 3-5 seconds until an audible signal sounds and the LED indicator starts flashing rapidly. In the app, confirm that the light flashes quickly and wait until the vacuum cleaner connects to the app. If Charles does not connect, try repeating the process. Make sure your WIFI is transmitting at 2.4GHz. If the vacuum cleaner fails to connect even after the second attempt, try connecting using AP mode.
8. AP mode – After selecting the Charles Q10 vacuum cleaner, select your WIFI and enter the password. Continue to the next page using the „Next“ button. Subsequently, select AP mode in the upper right corner and press the power button on the vacuum cleaner for more than 6 seconds until the sound signal sounds and the LED indicator begins to flash slowly. In the application, confirm that the light blinks slowly. Then go to the WIFI settings on your phone and connect to the hotspot of the vacuum cleaner called „ SmartLife -XXXX“ (in place of XXXX will be the number of your hotspot). Wait until your phone connects to the hotspot. Some devices may prompt you to disconnect from the hotspot due to not transmitting the internet connection. In this case, click on Keep Connected and go back to the application. The device will automatically start pairing.
9. After successfully connecting the device, it is possible to edit the name of the device and add it to the room of your choice. Click „Finish“ to enter the vacuum cleaner interface. To connect to the application, your WIFI network must transmit at a frequency of 2.4 GHz.

Spot cleaning

• If you want to start spot cleaning, you must first connect the vacuum cleaner to the Niceboy ION application and let the vacuum cleaner map the space at least once. Then select spot cleaning in the application. Spot cleaning mode is suitable for cleaning smaller dirty places.
• Place Charles on the contaminated area with start spot cleaning. Charles will then start circling the area and return to the charging station after 2-3 minutes of cleaning.

Y-mopping

• If you want the best possible result when mopping floor surfaces, we recommend turning on the Y-mopping function.
• You can find this function in the Niceboy ION app after clicking „Next“ in the vacuum cleaner interface.

• This feature reduces battery life.
