Before cleaning
Please read the following tips to improve cleaning efficiency. Tidy up cables, cords, small and loose items. Remove any unstable, fragile, precious or dangerous items from the ground. Make sure each room door is open. Your robot may encounter some difficulties on dark floors and on carpets: with fringes, too thick, with long piles, too light (ex: bathroom carpet). For optimum anti- drop sensors efficiency, remove any item (ex: shoe) from the stairs. When using the robot in a raised area, place a physical barrier at the edge of a drop to prevent accidental falls. Do not stand in narrow spaces, such as hallways so the robot is not blocked.

a wall, with no stairs in front of the station. Keep at least 0.5 m of
clearance on either side and 1.5 m in front. Make sure the chosen location is
close to the Wi-Fi box or has good Wi-Fi signal strength. Keep the area around
the station clear from any object, reflective surface, mirror, table and
chair. Keep the station away from direct sunlight. Plug the “power” cable.
