Remote Control (optional accessory)
The Dirt Dog Remote Control lets you conveniently control Dirt Dog’s
functions. You can use it to turn Dirt Dog on and off, and steer it around
your room without bending down. It also gives you remote access to the
following commands:
Clean: Start Dirt Dog in Clean mode Dirt Dog calculates room size and
adjusts cleaning time.
Spot: Start Dirt Dog in Spot mode.
Max: Start Dirt Dog in Max mode. Dirt Dog runs until battery is depleted.
Pause: Pause Dirt Dog in the middle of the cleaning cycle. Press pause
again to continue.
Before using your remote for the first time, you must install 2 AA batteries
(sold separately).
TIP: You can use the remote to direct Dirt Dog to the Home Base. Once Dirt
Dog is in range and can “see” the Home Base, it will return to the base
and dock itself automatically.
The Dirt Dog Remote Control, Virtual Walls, and Home Base all operate
using an invisible infrared beam. If they are all used in the same area, Dirt
Dog may see multiple infrared signals and will not operate. The Remote
WILL NOT work when the robot is near Virtual Walls.
