1. Touch the Area Clean button on the Home screen.
The nine cleaning patterns available on the machine are show graphically on the touchscreen. Below
are the elements of a cleaning pattern.

Completing Daily Cleaning Routine
The tank should be drained, rinsed and cleaned at the end of every shift. Filters should be removed,
rinsed, and allowed to air dry. Pleated filters need to be brushed and rinsed after drying and before
re-installing in canisters. This will ensure the robot remains clean and free from bacteria.
Maneuver the robot to a location where fluids can be drained.
1. Open tank lid.
2. Locate the drain hose and position the end to where fluids can be
dumped.
3. Pull the drain valve. The dirty water should now dispense into the
drain area.
4. Rinse tank.
Using the canister wrench, remove the blue canister(s) by turning
counterclockwise. Remove filter(s). If using cotton wound filters, rinse
and allow to dry before next use. If using pleated filters, allow to dry
completely; brush filters with brush and rinse before using. Inspect
filter(s) and replace as necessary.
Important: Insure O-rings remain on the interior lip of blue
canisters.
1. Remove wire basket and clean.
2. Rinse out tank.
