5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Dirt tank. Fig. 8

• Lift the top cover of the robot vacuum cleaner and remove the dirt tank.
• Open the tank by unlocking the side flap and empty it.

High-efficiency filter. Fig. 9

- The high-efficiency filter is designed with fibres that help trap dust particles, dust mites, pollen... It is very important to periodically clean the filter, to prevent these particles from building up in the filter, causing efficiency loss. It is convenient to carry out this maintenance once a week.

- It is recommended to replace the high-efficiency filter with a new one without exceeding 160 cleaning hours.

Recommendation

You can remove dirt from the high-efficiency filter with a small brush or gently shake the filter on a hard surface to remove the dust. The high-efficiency filter cannot be washed.

Primary mesh filter and sponge filter. Fig. 9

The filtering system is featured with a primary mesh filter and a sponge filter, located next to the high-efficiency filter. It is suggested to replace them either after a maximum of 160 hours of use or when they are worn out due to operation.

Recommendation

Dirt can be removed with a small brush or by shaking carefully against a hard surface for dust to fall off. You can also use warm water without detergents to obtain better results. Always make sure they are completely dry before installing them again; otherwise, moisture can reach the robot vacuum cleaner's motor and damage it.

Cleaning the fall-detection sensors. Fig. 10

Use a clean, dry, and soft cloth to wipe off any dust from the fall-detection sensors located on the robot vacuum cleaner's lower part.

Warning

Do not apply cleaning products directly on the sensors.

Side brushes.

Side brushes are designed with multiple bristles and are used to push dirt towards the suction mouth and to thoroughly clean edges and corners. These brushes can wear out over time, negatively affecting cleaning efficiency. For this reason, it is suggested to replace each side brush after a maximum of 220 hours or less.

Recommendation

It is recommended to clean the side brushes once a week with the help of the self-cleaning brush.

Sensors

- The robot vacuum cleaner has different types of sensors, for example, proximity sensors that allow the robot to move around while detecting obstacles, or fall-detection sensors that help the robot detect slopes or possible gaps/unevenness such as staircases. These sensors are always in contact with dust particles, and therefore can deteriorate over time, causing possible navigation errors.

- It is suggested to clean all the robot sensors with a dry and soft cloth after a maximum of 35 hours of operation or less.

Cleaning the drive wheels and the omnidirectional wheel Fig. 11

Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to wipe dust off the drive wheels and the omnidirectional wheel located on the bottom of the robot vacuum cleaner.

Changing the cotton filter. Fig. 12

1. Remove the silicone plug from the bottom of the water tank.
2. Remove the cotton filter from the silicone plug.
3. Replace the cotton filter with a new one and refit the silicone plug in the tank.

Charging base. Fig. 13

Use a clean, dry, soft cloth to wipe dust off the infrared lens and charging terminals. It is recommended to clean them once a month.

Charging and replacing the battery. Fig. 14

• To lengthen the battery shelf life, leave the robot vacuum cleaner to charge in the charging base when not in use.
• Remove the battery and store it in a safe, dry place if the robot vacuum cleaner will not be used for a long period of time.

To replace the battery, follow the instructions below:

1. Unscrew the screws on the battery compartment, remove the battery cover, and the battery itself.
2. Insert the new battery with the battery label facing up.
