PURPOSE OF USE AND FEATURES OF THE ROBOTIC VACUUM CLEANER

• The robotic vacuum cleaner is intended for cleaning various types of hard floors such as wooden or laminate floating floors, tiles, vinyl, etc., and carpets with a low pile height. While vacuuming, it effectively combines various routes to optimally clean the entire floor area.
• The suction hole effectively removes hair, animal fur, etc. The two side rotary brushes brush the dirt out of hard-to-reach places along walls and furniture and out of corners. The motorized rubber wheels protect sensitive floors against scratching and can travel over threshold strips up to a height of 1 cm and ride on to a 2 cm high carpet.
• The suspended bumper enables the vacuum cleaner to dampen the approach to an obstacle and to efficiently clean around it. The infrared sensors in the front bumper prevent the robotic vacuum cleaner from colliding with obstacles. Safe operation in rooms with stairs is made possible by the bottom anti-stair-fall sensors.
• Another advantage of the robotic vacuum cleaner is the mop function, which enables dry and wet wiping of smooth hard floor surfaces. While wiping, the vacuum cleaner vacuums small bits of dirt and dust from the floor to prevent the mop fabric from being excessively soiled during the cleaning cycle. When the vacuum cleaner finishes cleaning, it will automatically shut off the supply of water and thereby limit it from leaking onto the floor.
• For easy identification of the operating state, the button on the cover has an indicator light the color of which indicates low battery voltage (lit red), battery charging (flashing alternately red and blue), full charge, and operation (lit blue). Apart from the indicator lights, the vacuum cleaner also has audio signals and voice messages that accompany certain functions or error states of the vacuum cleaner, see chapter VOICE MESSAGES.
• The remote control facilitates convenient control, enabling the vacuum cleaner to be turned on and off, to be set to the automatic cleaning mode, to select an operating mode, to send the robotic vacuum cleaner to the charging station, or to set scheduled cleaning.
• The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a GYRO MAPPING function (orientation in space) and a 360° panoramic camera with the help of which it is able to identify the spatial geometry of the room that it is cleaning. The vacuum cleaner thereby misses no spots and cleans the floor more effectively. This is a built-in function and cannon be affected in any way.

PREPARING THE ROBOTIC VACUUM CLEANER FOR OPERATION INSTALLING AND USING THE ROTARY BRUSHES

• The rotary brushes A11 and A15 are intended for smooth floor surfaces and ensure effective cleaning in corners, along walls, and furniture.
• Turn the vacuum cleaner upside down. Gradually push the rotary brushes precisely and with force onto the pins that are intended for them. While doing this, make sure that the marks L and R both on the brushes and on the vacuum cleaner match. Turn the vacuum cleaner back over to the operating position.
• When using the vacuum cleaner to clean rooms with carpets, remove the rotary brushes. When removing them, proceed in the reverse sequence to their installation.

INSERTING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY

• The robotic vacuum cleaner is equipped with a Li-ion battery. If the battery is packed separately, it is necessary to insert it into the vacuum cleaner before first use. Use only the original battery type.
• Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is turned off with the main switch A3. Turn the vacuum cleaner upside down and screw off the cover A17.
• Remove the vacuum cleaner connector from the battery compartment. Connect the battery connector to it. The battery can only be connected in one direction.
• Screw the cover A17 back on and turn the vacuum cleaner back over to the operating position.
• Remove the battery in reverse sequence. Prior to removing it, always check that the vacuum cleaner is turned off using the main switch. The fabric strips on the body of the battery make battery removal easier.
• When the vacuum cleaner will not be used for an extended period of time, take out the battery and store it in a dry, clean, and cool place out of children’s reach.

LOCATION OF THE CHARGING STATION

• The charging station B4 serves to automatically recharge the battery and the vacuum cleaner must have good access to it.
• Locate the charging station against a wall on a hard, even, and dry surface within reach of a  power socket. Make sure that there are no stairs or obstacles within a distance of 1 m on the left and right of the charging station and within a distance of 2 m in front of the charging station, which would prevent the vacuum cleaner from finding the charging station and docking successfully.
• Insert the power adapter plug B2 into socket B6 of the charging station, and insert the power cord plug into a power socket. Place the power cord in such a way that it does not tangle into the cleaning brushes of the vacuum cleaner.
• In the event that the vacuum cleaner is not used for an extended period of time, disconnect the charging station from the power socket and store it in a dry, clean and cool place.

CHARGING THE BATTERY FOR THE FIRST TIME

Note: Prior to charging the battery, the vacuum cleaner must be turned on using the main switch A3.

• Before using the vacuum cleaner for the first time, it is necessary to fully charge the battery for at least 5 hours.
• Check that the charging station is correctly positioned and connected to a power socket according to the chapter Location of the charging station. Turn on the main switch A3 A3 of the vacuum cleaner, grasp the robotic vacuum cleaner, and manually place it into the charging station so that the charging contacts A16 on the underside of the vacuum cleaner and the charging contacts B5 on the charging station are connected. When the contacts are connected, the charging process will start.
• The vacuum cleaner can also be charged without using the charging station. Insert plug B2 of the power adapter B1 into socket A4 of the vacuum cleaner, and insert the power cord plug into a power socket.
• During the charging process, the indicator light on button D1 will alternately flash blue and red.
• When the battery is fully charged, the indicator light of button D1 will remain permanently lit blue and the process will end automatically. The vacuum cleaner is now ready for use.

INSERTING AND REPLACING BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE CONTROL

• Push down the latch of cover C13 on the rear side of the remote control C1 to release it and remove the cover.
• Insert two type AAA (1.5 V) batteries into the remote control. When inserting the batteries, ensure the correct polarity as shown inside the battery compartment C14. Put the cover C13 back on and click it into place.
• In the event that the batteries are flat, replace them with new ones. Do not combine various types of batteries or new and old batteries.
• The signal range of the remote control is approximately 6 m.

SETTING SYSTEM TIME ON THE REMOTE CONTROL

• The system time of the vacuum cleaner is the actual time according to your time zone. It must be correctly set if you wish to use the scheduled cleaning function.
• In the standby mode or in the charging station mode, hold down button C11 (CLK) until the time setting value (hours and minutes) starts flashing on display C2.
• Using buttons C5 ( ) or C8 ( ) set the time values. Toggle between the hour and minute numbers using buttons E6 ( ) or C7 ( ).
• Confirm the set time by pressing button C11 (CLK). The appliance will beep 1x and the set time will be saved to the memory of the remote control as the system time.
• If you do not perform any changes within 10 seconds, the system time setting mode will automatically be canceled and the time will not be saved to memory.

DEFINING THE VACUUMING AREA USING MAGNETIC TAPE

• The magnetic tape I1 serves to define the vacuuming area without you having to close doors or place artificial obstacles in the path of the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner will recognize the magnetic tape and will not travel over it. It will start cleaning in another direction.
• Place the magnetic tape before the place that the robotic vacuum cleaner should not clean, for example, room doorway, carpet, cables on the floor or a staircase with rounded corners, etc.
• To help the magnetic tape adhere better, you can attach it to the perimeter using standard double-sided tape. It can also be cut into smaller pieces as required. Additional tape can be purchased to extend the defined area.

Note:
The magnetic tape must be put down prior to every cleaning session because the robotic vacuum cleaner does not store the boundaries in memory.

Note:
For wiping, we recommend using clean water. If you use a  cleaning agent, it may foam up and thereby worsen the dripping of the water onto the fabric, or potentially cause smudges on the floor after it dries.

• Insert the dust container back into the water tank and insert this assembly back into the vacuum cleaner.
• Start the vacuum cleaner.

SCHEDULED CLEANING

Note:
The scheduled cleaning time setting is based on the system time set on the remote control. Therefore, before setting the scheduled cleaning
time, it is necessary to correctly set the system time as described in chapter SETTING SYSTEM TIME ON THE REMOTE CONTROL

• This function enables scheduling the vacuum cleaner to automatically start cleaning at a certain time once per day. If you use the application, it is possible to schedule a cleaning time for every day at a different time. Please follow the instructions in the application.
• This function behaves as a  delayed start, so you are actually setting a  delayed cleaning time. Example: If the current time on the vacuum cleaner is 5:00 p.m. then by setting the scheduled cleaning time to 2:30 the vacuum cleaner will automatically start cleaning only at 7:30 p.m. If you leave the main switch of the vacuum cleaner turned on, then the same cleaning process will be repeated at 7:30 p.m. every day thereafter.
  Attention:
  Never use the delayed cleaning function for wet wiping when the water tank is filled with water. This could result in excessive wetting of the floor in the vicinity of the charging station.

Setting scheduled cleaning:

• In the standby mode or in the charging station mode, hold down button C3 (PLAN) until the time setting value starts flashing on the display C2.
• Using buttons C5 ( ) or C8 ( ) set the time values. Toggle between the values using buttons C6 ( ) or C7 ( ).
• Confirm the set time by pressing button C9 (ON/OFF). When confirming, the remote control must be pointed at the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner will confirm the scheduling via a voice message SCHEDULING CONFIRMED.

Canceling scheduled cleaning using the remote control:

• Following the procedure described in the paragraph above, set the time value on the display to 00:00 and confirm the value by pressing button C9 (ON/OFF). When confirming, the remote control must be pointed at the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner will confirm the scheduling via a voice message NO SCHEDULING.
• The scheduled cleaning can also be canceled via the smartphone application.

CONTROLLING THE ROBOTIC VACUUM CLEANER USING THE MOBILE APPLICATION

• The vacuum cleaner can also be controlled using a  smartphone or tablet. The application enables the one to select the cleaning mode, pause cleaning as well as return to the charging station, schedule cleaning for a selected time that may differ for the individual days of the week, furthermore, cancel scheduled cleaning and also provides an overview of the cleaning time and the status of the robotic vacuum cleaner.

• The application is freely available in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. This link for this application is found in the picture part of this user’s manual.
  Note:
  The robotic vacuum cleaner supports Wi-Fi in the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands. If unsure about which standards are used by your Wi-Fi network and your router, please contact your internet service provider or the manufacturer of the router.

• After downloading and installing it, the application will guide you through the process of connecting the robotic vacuum cleaner to your Wi-Fi network. Turn off mobile data on your smartphone before connecting to the Wi-Fi network.

CHARGING THE ROBOTIC VACUUM CLEANER
AUTOMATIC CHARGING

• As soon as the vacuum cleaner detects the low voltage of the battery during operation, it will automatically start to seek out the charging station. In order for it to find it and dock, it needs to find the infrared signal transmitted by the charging station. For this reason, we recommend leaving the charging station constantly connected to the power source and located in accordance with the instructions provided in chapter LOCATION OF THE CHARGING STATION.
• After docking in the charging station, the charging cycle will commence. A complete charge takes approximately 4 to 7 hours. The actual charging time depends on the power level of the battery. A fully charged battery will provide up to 120 minutes of operation.
• During the charging process, the indicator light on button D1 will alternately flash red and blue.
• When the battery is fully charged, the indicator light of button D1 will remain permanently lit blue and the process will end automatically.
• In the event that the charging contacts are disconnected during the charging cycle, the vacuum cleaner will move away from the charging station and then re-dock itself to resume the charging process, unless it is prevented from doing so by an obstacle. In the event of a power outage, the charging cycle will be interrupted and will continue after the power supply is renewed. In the event that the maximum charging current is exceeded, the charging station will automatically interrupt the charging cycle.

MANUAL CHARGING

• If the vacuum cleaner is located away from the charging station and detects a low battery voltage then button D1 will be lit red. Press button C4 (HOME) on the remote control. The vacuum cleaner will automatically seek out the charging station and start automatic charging as described in the previous chapter.
• If the battery is so flat that the vacuum cleaner is unable to seek out the charging station then it is necessary to dock the vacuum cleaner into the charging station by hand. Grasp the vacuum cleaner and manually place it into the charging station so that the charging contacts on the underside of the vacuum cleaner and the charging contacts on the charging station are connected. When the contacts are connected, charging will start.
• The vacuum cleaner can also be charged without using the charging station. Insert the power adapter connector into socket A4 on the side of the vacuum cleaner and insert the power adapter plug into the main socket.

CARING FOR THE BATTERY

• We recommend that you do not interrupt the charging cycle and maintain the battery in a charged state.
• Do not leave the vacuum cleaner standing fully charged or completely flat for an unnecessarily long period of time.
• A  battery that is allowed to remain flat for a  long time may self-discharge below a permissible level and thereby cause irreparable damage to itself.

• Push on the latches H1 of the central rotary brush cover H2 and take the cover out together with the brush.
• Use a dry wiping cloth to clean out the area in which the rotary brush is housed. Clean out the suction hole as described in the previous paragraph.
• Remove any dirt and material (dust, wound on hair, animal fur, etc.) from the rotary brush and the bearings H4.
• Reinsert the rotary brush and its cover.

SUCTION HOLE

• The suction hole A19 is located underneath the central rotary brush A21, therefore, take it out before cleaning the suction hole. With repeat use, dust and dirt may accumulate around the suction hole, which may manifest itself through suction decreased efficiency. Remove the dirt and dust from the suction hole using a soft brush. Regularly clean the suction hole to ensure maximum suction power.

ROTARY BRUSHES

• Take out the rotary brushes A11 and A15 by pulling them upwards. Remove any dust and dirt from the location where the brushes were mounted.
• Remove all dust and dirt from the brushes. If necessary you may wash the brushes under running water. If the bristles were deformed while the vacuum cleaner was running, dip them in warm water to allow them to return to their original shape. Allow the brushes to dry before reattaching to the vacuum cleaner.
• After cleaning them, reattach them.

Note:
The rotary brushes become worn out when used. After a certain time, it is necessary to replace the used brushes with new ones. To order new brushes, please contact your vendor or an authorized service center.
