How your robot works
What your robot cleans
This robot is equipped with features that make it a suitable cleaner to help you clean the floors in your
home.
6English

The robot is especially suitable for cleaning hard floors, such as wooden, tiled or linoleum floors. It
may experience problems cleaning soft floors, such as carpet or rugs. If you use the robot on a carpet
or rug, please stay close by the first time to see if the robot can deal with this type of floor.
Because the robot uses infrared sensors to navigate, it may run into difficulties on very dark and shiny
floors. If you use the robot on such surfaces, please stay close by the first time to see if the robot can
deal with such a dark and shiny floor.
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
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:
1 Z-pattern or zigzag pattern (Fig. 6)
2 Random pattern (Fig. 7)
3 Wall-following pattern (Fig. 8)
4 Spot-cleaning pattern (Fig. 9)
In its auto cleaning mode, the robot uses these patterns in a fixed sequence: z-pattern, random
pattern, wall-following pattern, and spot-cleaning pattern.
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 runs
low, or until it is switched off manually.
Note (FC8715, FC8710, FC8705): You can also select each mode individually by pressing the
appropriate button on the remote control. 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.
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. It is important that you clean the drop-off sensors
regularly to ensure the robot continues to detect height differences properly (see chapter ' Cleaning
and maintenance' for instructions).

So funktioniert Ihr Roboter
Das reinigt Ihr Roboter
Dieser Roboter ist mit Funktionen ausgestattet, die ihn zu einem idealen Reinigungsgerät machen, um
Sie beim Reinigen der Böden in Ihrem Heim zu unterstützen.
Der Roboter ist besonders zum Reinigen harter Böden, wie etwa Holz-, Kachel- oder Linoleum-
Böden, geeignet. Beim Reinigen weicher Böden, zum Beispiel Teppichböden oder Teppiche, können
17
Deutsch

Probleme auftreten. Wenn Sie den Roboter auf einem Teppichboden oder Teppich verwenden,
bleiben Sie beim ersten Mal in der Nähe, sodass Sie erkennen, ob der Roboter mit diesem Bodentyp
zurechtkommt.
Da sich der Roboter mithilfe von Infrarotsensoren orientiert, kann es auf sehr dunklen und glänzenden
Böden zu Schwierigkeiten kommen. Wenn Sie den Roboter auf solchen Oberflächen verwenden,
bleiben Sie beim ersten Mal in der Nähe, sodass Sie erkennen, ob der Roboter mit einem solchen
dunklen und glänzenden Boden zurechtkommt.
So reinigt Ihr Roboter
Reinigungssystem
Der Roboter weist ein 2-stufiges Reinigungssystem zur effizienten Reinigung Ihrer Böden auf.
-Die beiden Seitenbürsten unterstützen den Roboter bei der Reinigung von Ecken sowie entlang
von Wänden. Sie helfen auch, Schmutz vom Boden zu beseitigen und ihn Richtung Ansaugöffnung
(Abb. 4) zu bewegen.
-Mit der Saugkraft des Roboters wird loser Schmutz aufgesaugt und durch die Ansaugöffnung in
den Staubcontainer (Abb. 5) transportiert.
Reinigungsmuster
Im automatischen Reinigungsmodus verwendet der Roboter eine automatische Abfolge von
Reinigungsmustern, sodass jeder Bereich des Raums optimal gereinigt wird. Die folgenden
Reinigungsmuster werden verwendet:
1 Z-Muster oder Zickzack-Muster (Abb. 6)
2 Zufälliges Muster (Abb. 7)
3 Den Wänden entlang (Abb. 8)
4 Muster (Abb. 9) zur punktuellen Reinigung
In seinem automatischen Reinigungsmodus verwendet der Roboter diese Muster in einer festgelegten
Reihenfolge: Z-Muster, Zufallsmuster, Muster zur Reinigung entlang den Wänden und Muster zur
punktuellen Reinigung.
Wenn der Roboter mit dieser Muster-Abfolge fertig ist, beginnt er wieder mit dem Z-Muster. Der
Roboter verwendet diese Muster-Abfolge zur Reinigung des Raums, bis der Akku fast leer ist oder das
Gerät manuell ausgeschaltet wird.
Hinweis (FC8715, FC8710, FC8705): Sie können jeden Modus auch einzeln auswählen, indem Sie die
entsprechende Taste auf der Fernbedienung drücken. Weitere Hinweise finden Sie im Kapitel "Ihren
Roboter verwenden", Abschnitt "Reinigungsmodus auswählen".
So vermeidet Ihr Roboter Höhenunterschiede
Der Roboter hat drei Stopp-Sensoren an der Unterseite. Er verwendet diese Stopp-Sensoren, um
Höhenunterschiede, wie z.B. Stufen, zu erkennen und zu vermeiden.
Hinweis: Es ist normal, dass sich der Roboter etwas über den Rand eines Höhenunterschieds bewegt,
da sich der vordere Stopp-Sensor hinter dem Stoßfänger befindet.
Achtung: In einigen Fällen können die Stopp-Sensoren einen Treppenabsatz oder anderen
Höhenunterschied nicht rechtzeitig erkennen. Beobachten Sie den Roboter bei den ersten
Einsätzen also sorgfältig, sowie bei Nutzung in der Nähe einer Treppe oder eines sonstigen
Höhenunterschieds. Es ist wichtig, dass Sie die Stopp-Sensoren regelmäßig reinigen, damit der
Roboter Höhenunterschiede korrekt erkennt (siehe Anweisungen im Kapitel „Reinigung und
Wartung“).
