11. Cleaning functions
The window cleaning robot has various cleaning modes that can be selected depending on the degree of soiling and the glass surface.
11.1 Dry cleaning
• Always carry out the first cleaning process dry, without water or cleaning agents.
- This removes loose dust or sand before moisture turns the dirt particles into mud and impairs the cleaning result.
- Dry cleaning is particularly suitable in sunny weather or when humidity is low.
11.2 Wet cleaning
- For a more thorough clean, the product can be used with water.
- Only fill with clean water.
- Spray the water directly onto the cleaning cloth or glass surface, not onto the product.
11.3 Automatic water spraying function

- To do this, press the "Manual spray" button on the remote control.
11.5 Intelligent route planning modes (Fig. 11)
The window cleaning robot is equipped with an intelligent route planning function. This ensures that the entire glass surface is cleaned systematically and efficiently, without missing any areas. Depending on the glass surface and position, different cleaning modes can be selected:



- From top to bottom: The robot starts at the top edge of the window, moves systematically downwards and cleans the entire surface.
- From left to bottom: The robot starts at the top left of the window, works its way to the right and then downwards.
- From right to bottom: The robot starts at the top right of the window, cleans to the left and then moves downwards.
Instructions for use:
- Before starting, place the product in a suitable position (at a distance of approximately 80 mm from the window frame) to ensure that the automatic route planning works correctly.
- If the glass surface is particularly dirty or uneven, cleaning can be supplemented by manual control using the remote control (10).
- In the event of unusual obstacles or highly reflective glass, it may be necessary to manually support the product.
12. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for operation. The connection complies with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.

Notes on lithium-ion batteries

Remove the battery before disposing of the device!
- Do not dispose of the battery in household waste, in a fire (risk of explosion) or in water. Damaged batteries can harm the environment and your health if toxic vapours or liquids escape.
- Defective or used batteries must be recycled in accordance with Directive 2023/1542/EC.
- Hand in the device and the battery charger at a recycling centre. The plastic and metal parts used can be separated by type and thus recycled.
- Dispose of batteries when discharged. We recommend covering the poles with an adhesive strip to protect against a short circuit. Do not open the battery.
- Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Return batteries to a used battery collection point where they can be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. Ask your local waste disposal company about this.
