WIRELESS CONNECTION AND COMPATIBILITY

• Jindřich Valenta – CONCEPT shall in no way be liable for any incidental, indirect or consequential damages, or for any loss of data or loss due to information leakage during communication via wireless technology.
• Successful wireless communication cannot be 100% guaranteed on all Smart devices and Wi-Fi networks (routers). Due to the variety of devices on the market, there may be cases where the character or specification of a given Smart device or Wi-Fi network (router) makes connection impossible or is somehow disturbed. In addition, some factors, including hardware and software configuration, also affect the success of wireless communication via Wi-Fi networks.
• The connection between the robot and your Wi-Fi network can also be adversely affected by the surrounding Wi-Fi networks, which can be tuned to the same channel and thus interfere with the connection (e.g. in housing estates, apartment buildings, etc.). These facts are not a reason to claim the appliance.
• The application is owned and operated by a third party (the “Entity”) different from Jindřich Valenta – CONCEPT (the “Seller”). No personal data is transferred to the Entity by the Seller. When registering for the application, the customer submits personal data directly to the Entity, who becomes the administrator of personal data. The application and the associated protection of personal data are governed by the Entity’s rules.

Compatibility:

• Smart device operating system – Android 5.0 and higher – IOS 9.0 and higher
• Wi-Fi network – 2.4 GHz – WPA1 and WPA2 security (WPA2 recommended)

NOTICE: The appliance cannot be operated on IEEE 802.1X-protected Wi-Fi networks (usually corporate Wi-Fi networks).

OPERATING USING THE APP

• Before you can control the device using the app, it is necessary to connect it to your phone and give it access to your Wi-Fi network.

Recommended distance during set-up: less than 4 meters

• Make sure your robotic vacuum cleaner, router, and your mobile phone are close together so that you can pair your phone with the device with no problems.

Downloading and installing the app and pairing the device

Note: Pair the vacuum cleaner with a charged battery or directly placed in the charging station.

1. Scan the QR code below (Fig. 1) or find and download the “Concept Home” app from Google Play or App Store to your mobile phone.
2. If you already have Concept Home, open the app, sign in, and continue with the pairing instructions.
3. Make sure that both buttons on the appliance are flashing before connecting the appliance to the app.
4. Then press “+” or “Add device” in the app.
5. Select the appliance from the list of appliances.
6. Fill in the name of your Wi-Fi and password (they can also be filled in automatically).
7. Press the “Next” button and then “EZ Mode” in the upper right corner.
8. Select “AP mode”, check that the appliance indicator is flashing and press “Next”.
9. Go to Wi-Fi settings on your mobile device, connect to the “SmartLife-xxx” Wi-Fi and wait for it to connect.
10. Then return to the app and wait for your appliance to pair. After successful pairing, you can start controlling the appliance using the mobile app.

Pairing troubleshooting

• Verify that your Wi-Fi network password is correct.
• The device only supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks.
• The router is overwhelmed by connecting many other devices (especially in housing estates or in case of large concentrations of connected Smart devices). For stable operation, it is necessary that the Wi-Fi signal reaches the places intended for use of the vacuum cleaner and at the same time is sufficiently strong.
  • restart the vacuum cleaner and smart device and repeat the process;
  • if possible, try also restarting the Wi-Fi router itself;
• If your smart device is running Android 6.0 and above, you need to have location detection turned on.
• Once you have paired the vacuum cleaner with your smart device via the “Concept Home” app, do not move or relocate the docking station. The vacuum cleaner uses the charging station as a landmark on the map.
• By relocating the docking station, you risk losing the generated map, including the selected cleaning zones and restricted zones! The vacuum cleaner creates a new map, which overwrites the original map.

• The customer must file a product complaint with the dealer from which they have purchased the product, or with any authorised service centre, a list of which is included in the product package, or available at www. my-concept.com.
• While filing a product complaint, the product must be duly cleaned and securely packed to prevent any damage during its transport to an authorised service centre, where relevant, unless the product is delivered in person.
• The customer must submit proof of having concluded a purchase contract for the product by producing the receipt.
• While filing their complaint, the customer must indicate the noted defect and identify the preferred complaint application method.

Complaints processing

• As long as the noted defect may be removed, the user has the right to have the defect duly removed free of charge on a timely basis.
• Where such a procedure is not reasonable about the nature of the defect, the user may be required to be supplied a new defect-free product (replacement), or, where the defect applies to a part of the product only, replacement of the part concerned.
• However, if the replacement of the product or any part thereof is not proportionate to the nature of the defect, especially if the defect can be removed without undue delay, the customer has the right to have the defect removed free of charge.
• If the noted defect is not removable, or if the customer becomes entitled to the replacement of the product or a part thereof, yet the replacement is not possible, for example, due to the product having been sold out, the customer has the right to return the product (withdrawal from the contract).
• The customer shall have the right to a new product (replacement) or to replacement of a part of the product even if the defect can be removed, provided they cannot properly use the product due to repeated occurrence of the defect or due to a high number of such defects. In such a case, the customer also has the right to return the product (by withdrawing from the contract).
• If the product is not returned (the customer does not withdraw from the contract), or if the customer does not apply the right to a new defect-free product(replacement), to replacement of a part thereof or to repair of the product, they may request a reasonable discount.
• The customer also has a right to a reasonable discount if a new defect-free product cannot be supplied to them, or if a product part cannot be replaced or the product repaired unless the situation is remedied within a reasonable time limit, or if remedying the situation would create major discomfort on the part of the customer.
• The seller, authorised service centre or a staff member authorised by them must decide about each complaint immediately or within three business days in complicated cases. This term does not include a reasonable period, depending on the type of product concerned, required for the defect to be assessed by an expert.
• A complaint, including defect removal, must be dealt with without any undue delay, yet no later than within 30 calendar days of the complaint filing date, unless the seller and the customer agree on a later deadline.
• On returning the product (withdrawing from the contract) the customer must return any accessories and documents supplied along with the product.
• The customer does not have the right to keep the defective parts and components of the product replaced as part of a repair of the product.
• This shall be without prejudice to any other rights the customer may have about the purchase of the product.
• Remark: Complaints against products damaged in transport are governed by the carrier’s complaints procedure.
