Safety instructions for charging station
DANGER ● Only connect the device to an AC
power source. The voltage indicated on the type plate
must match the mains voltage of the power source.
● For safety reasons we recommend operating the de-
vice only via a fault current protection switch (maximum
English 17
30 mA). ● Never touch the mains plug and socket with
wet hands.
몇WARNING ● Only connect the device to an
electrical connection which has been set up by a quali-
fied electrician as per IEC 60364-1. ● Check that the
mains voltage corresponds with the voltage stated on
the type plate of the charger. ● The appliance contains
electrical components - do not clean the appliance un-
der running water. ● Short circuit hazard. Keep conduc-
tive objects (e.g. screwdrivers or similar tools) away
from the charging contacts. ● Short circuit hazard. Only
clean the charging contacts of the charging station dry.
● Only charge the appliance using the original charger
enclosed or with a charger approved by KÄRCHER.
● Danger of explosion. Do not charge non-rechargeable
batteries. ● Check the mains cable for damage each
time before every operation. Do not use a damaged
mains cable. If damaged, replace the mains cable with
an approved replacement. You can get a suitable re-
placement from KÄRCHER or one of our service part-
ners. ● Applies to RCV 3 devices: Only the cleaning
robot model “RCV 3” may be charged. ● Applies to RCV
5 devices: Only the cleaning robot model “RCV 5” may
be charged.
ATTENTION ● Use the charging station indoors
only. ● Do not place the charging station near heat
sources, e.g. heaters. ● Store the charging station in-
doors only, in a cool, dry place. ● Charge the cleaning
robot at least once a month to avoid deep discharge of
the battery. ● Switch off the charging station before all
care and maintenance work.
Intended use

Functional description
The device consists of a charging station and a battery-
powered cleaning robot.
The mobile cleaning robot obtains its energy from a
built-in rechargeable battery. The cleaning robot can
clean for up to 120 minutes with a single battery charge.
It automatically returns to the charging station to re-
charge when the battery charge decreases.
The cleaning robot moves systematically. It scans the
room with a 3-D laser sensor with camera (LiDAR) and
then cleans the room step-by-step. It avoids obstacles
that are at least as high as the LiDAR tower.
Artificial intelligence helps the cleaning robot to avoid
complex obstacles such as cables or shoes without in-
terference.
Due to the calculation of the intelligent driving strategy
by the artificial intelligence and the subsequent obstacle
avoidance, it can take a few seconds, depending on the
obstacle situation, until the robot resumes its regular
travel path to clean the free area in straight paths.
The flat design of the cleaning robot allows it to clean
under furniture such as beds, sofas and cupboards.
18 English
The ultrasound sensor detects carpets and avoids them
during wet cleaning or combination cleaning. For dry
cleaning only, the unit increases its suction performance
on carpets (auto-boost).
Fall sensors that detect stairs and landings can prevent
falls.
Collision sensors detect obstacles and avoid them.
The battery for the cleaning robot is charged in the
charging station.
If the cleaning robot starts the cleaning work from the
charging station, it returns to the charging station when
the battery charge is insufficient.
As soon as the charging process is finished, the clean-
ing robot automatically leaves the charging station and
continues the cleaning work. The cleaning robot also re-
turns to the charging station when it has finished clean-
ing.
Status displays
Functions
Sleep mode
The cleaning robot automatically switches to sleep
mode after 5 minutes of inactivity. Press any button to
wake it up.
●The cleaning robot does not switch to sleep mode
when it is on the charging station.
●The cleaning robot switches off automatically if it is
in sleep mode for more than 6 hours
Error mode
If the cleaning robot encounters an error during opera-
tion, the display flashes red and a signal sounds.
For a solution, see chapter Troubleshooting guide.
If no action is taken within 5 minutes, the cleaning robot
automatically switches to sleep mode.

ing and does not give audible warnings.
"Do not disturb" mode can be deactivated in the App.
Downloading the App is described in the chapter Con-
necting cleaning robots with WLAN and App.
