You can then use the Clicker or hook to take it out.

CLEANING THE FILTER BASKET

To prevent debris from hardening on the filter, we highly recommend quick- rinsing the filter immediately after removing the robot from the pool.

Rinsing after each use – removing and cleaning the filter basket

PERIODIC CLEANING – RECOMMENDED ABOUT ONCE A MONTH

Dismantle the 2 ultra-fine filter panels of the basket, using the following steps:

• Dismantle the 2 panels with your thumbs.

• Clean the filter panels with a hose.
• Re-assemble the filter panels.

• Insert the clean filter basket and close the filter cover.

Cleaning the Impeller
Hair and other debris can get stuck in the impeller causing the robot not to work well. Clean the impeller periodically to improve the robot’s performance.
CAUTION: Make sure you connect the charger to turn the robot off and insert the impeller cleaning safety tool.

•  Make sure that the charger connections are clean on the robot and magnetic, inductive charger.

•  Charge in the shade or indoors. If summer, try charging at night.

•  It can take up to 6 hours for a full charge.

The robot does not turn or moves in one direction only.| •  Debris stuck in the impeller housing or impeller cover.| •  Clean the impeller.
The robot moves but does not clean the pool.| •  Clogged filter basket.

•  Debris stuck in the impeller housing or impeller cover.

| •  Clean the filter basket. It should be white. If it is brown or green, clean it with a hose.

•  Clean the impeller.

OFF-SEASON STORAGE

• Before off-season storage – we recommend charging the battery to about 50% (2 green bars in the battery indicator panel).
• Recommended storage temperature range: -10°C – 40°C / 14°F – 104°F.
• Storing the robot in a hot location will likely damage the battery.
• After off-season storage, charge the robot to its fullest.
