How your robot cleans

Cleaning system

The robot has a 2-stage cleaning system to clean your floors efficiently.

-- The two side brushes help the robot clean in corners and along walls.They also help to remove

dirt loose from the floor and move it towards the suction opening (Fig. 4).

-- The suction power of the robot picks up loose dirt and transports it through the suction opening into the dust container (Fig. 5).

Cleaning patterns

In its auto cleaning mode, the robot uses an automatic sequence of cleaning patterns to clean each

area of the room optimally.The cleaning patterns it uses are:

1Z-pattern or zigzag pattern

2Random pattern

3Wall-following pattern

4Spiral pattern

During auto cleaning, the robot uses these patterns in a fixed sequence:

1Z-pattern (Fig. 6)

2Random pattern (Fig. 7)

3Wall-following pattern (Fig. 8)

4Spiral pattern (Fig. 9)

When the robot has completed this sequence of patterns, it starts moving in Z-pattern again. The robot continues to use this sequence of patterns to clean the room until the rechargeable battery is empty, or until it is switched off manually.

Note:You can also select each mode individually by pressing the appropriate button on the remote control (FC8710). For more details, see chapter ‘Using your robot’, section ‘Cleaning modes’.

How your robot avoids height differences

-- The robot has three drop-off sensors in its bottom. It uses these drop-off sensors to detect and

avoid height differences such as staircases (Fig. 10).

Note: It is normal for the robot to move slightly over the edge of a height difference, as its front drop-off sensor is located behind the bumper.

Caution: In some cases, the drop-off sensors may not detect a staircase or other height difference in time.Therefore monitor the robot carefully the first few times you use it, and when you operate it near a staircase or another height difference.

Mounting the side brushes

1Unpack the side brushes and place the robot upside down on a table or on the floor.

2Push the side brushes onto the shafts on the bottom of the robot (Fig. 11).

Note: Make sure you attach the side brushes properly. Press them onto the shaft until you hear them lock into position with a click.

Removing the protection tag from the remote control

The remote control (FC8710) works on a CR2025 coin-shaped battery.This battery is protected with a protection tag that has to be removed before use.

1Pull the battery protection tag out of the battery compartment of the remote control (Fig. 12).

,, Now the remote control is ready for use.
