Important Safety Instructions
Basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
Read ALL instructions before use.
• To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse any part of Bob — with the
exception of his mopping cloth — into water or other liquids.
•Unplug Bob from outlet when not in use and before conducting maintenance.
•Do not operate Bob or his charging station if they have been damaged in any way.
If Bob is not working as he should, or has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,
or dropped in water, contact our customer care center at [email protected].
•Do not handle Bob or his charging station with wet hands; use only on dry surfaces.
•Do not use Bob outdoors.
•Bob is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless under the close
supervision of a person responsible for their safety.
•Do not pull or carry the charging station by the cord, use the cord as a handle, close
a door on the cord, or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep the cord
away from heated surfaces. To unplug the cord, grasp the plug, not the cord itself.
•Do not mutilate or incinerate the battery, as it will explode at high temperatures.
•Do not attempt to open Bob’s charging station. Repairs on his station should only
be carried out by our qualified customer care center.
•Do not expose Bob’s charging station to high temperatures or allow moisture or
humidity of any kind to come into contact with it.
•Do not let Bob pick up toxic materials (chlorine bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner,
etc.).
•Do not let Bob pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes. Do not use Bob to pick up flammable or combustible liquids
such as gasoline, nor use him in areas where they may be present.
•Do not use Bob in an enclosed space filled with vapors given off by oil-based paint,
paint thinner, moth-proofing substances, flammable dust, or other explosive or toxic
vapors.
•Leaks from battery cells can occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions.
•If the liquid gets on skin, wash quickly with water. If the liquid gets into the eyes,
flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes, and seek
medical attention.
•Do not use Bob for anything other than his intended purpose, as specified in this
manual.
