Notes for Use

  • The appliance is operated via charged battery. Charge the battery using the power adapter provided. Direct power supply via power adapter is not possible.
  •  The appliance sucks up loose dirt through the nozzle.For more efficient cleaning, the appliance is equipped with a rubber lip.
  • Do not use the appliance to vacuum building rubble.
  • Dirty filters reduce the suction power of the appliance, hence we recommend cleaning the dust container and filters after each use.
  • When the appliance hits a wall or other obstacles during operation, it will change its driving direction.
  • The appliance also cleans underneath furniture if they have a ground clearance of at least 80 mm. If the appliance gets stuck under a piece of furniture, a beep will sound and the robot vacuum cleaner switches itself off.
  • If the appliance is lifted during operation, it will emit a beep and the power indicator light flashes red. The appliance will then switch off.
  • Due to its design, the cleaning of carpets and the driving over edges is only possible to a limited extent. Short-pile carpets with low edges can be surmounted. For long-pile carpets, please use a conventional 230 V floor vacuum cleaner.
  • The sensors at the bottom of the appliance detect steps and other dips, so that it can not drop down.

CAUTION:Prior to each use, ensure the sensors are clean, or else the appliance may crash.

Depending on the condition of the step (colour scheme, design, etc.), it may happen that the sensors can still not detect the landing. Especially near a stairway, please do not leave the appliance unattended.
