Cleaning and maintenance

NOTE

• If you washed the dustbin and filter with water: - Dustbin: Completely wipe out the water. - Filter: Completely dry it in the shade before using.

CAUTION

• Watch your fingers when attaching or detaching the filter, as they may get stuck in the dustbin's intake.
• To avoid blockages by foreign matter, do not let toothpicks, cotton swabs, etc. be vacuumed by the robot vacuum cleaner.
• If it is difficult to remove foreign matter from the power brush, contact a service center.
• Since the power brush removes dirt from the floor during cleaning, foreign matter such as thread, long hair, etc. may get caught in it. Therefore, check and clean it regularly.

About the battery

NOTE

• Purchase batteries at service centers and check the genuine part symbol (SAMSUNG) and model name before purchasing. - Charge batteries in a place with good ventilation. - The battery is exclusively for Samsung Electronics robot vacuum cleaner; do not use it for any other product. - Do not disassemble or modify the battery. - Do not throw the battery into fire or heat it up. - Do not connect any metallic object to the charging contacts (+, -). - Do not discard the batteries with your household trash. - Before you discard the robot vacuum cleaner, dispose of the batteries in an environmentally safe manner. - Follow all local regulations when disposing of batteries. • Store it indoors (at 0 °C ~ 40 °C). - If the battery malfunctions, do not disassemble it yourself.

About the IrDA sensor

CAUTION

• Infrared signal transmission may not be smooth in locations exposed to halogen lamps or in outdoor locations.
• The robot vacuum cleaner uses 3 types of infrared devices and a device may not work in front of another device with a higher priority.
• Infrared signal Priority: Remote control > Virtual guard (option) > Charger
• When controlling the robot vacuum cleaner with the remote control, the robot vacuum cleaner may cross the invisible barrier set by the Virtual guard (option) and enter the area you don’t want it to enter, since remote control’s signal has a higher priority.
• Different infrared signals may interfere with one another and cause the devices to malfunction if they are used together in a small space or in a close distance.
• Install the Virtual guard (option) away from the charger as auto charging may be interrupted if the Virtual guard is near the charger.
• If more than one robot vacuum cleaner is used simultaneously, they may malfunction due to interference of the infrared signals.
