How your robot works
Create a mapping
How mapping works
The robot drives through the rooms and the laser navigation quickly scans the
rooms to build a map of the floor.

14 English
Map Edit
In the app, you can use Map Edit to:
-Edit rooms (merge/divide rooms, name rooms) so you can customize the
cleaning routine of the robot per room.
-Set up restricted areas to specify where the robot is allowed to clean and
where it is not.
-Create a map for each floor of your home and store up to 5 maps. When you
use the appliance, it generates a new map in a new environment. If you have
maps that you use frequently and do not want to accidentally overwrite, you
can lock up to 3 maps.
Preparing the room for mapping
Before you start mapping, make sure to:
-Tidy up the area.
-Put furniture in the proper place.
-Put away loose and small obstacles.
Note: This is important to avoid permanently storing the obstacles on the
map.
-Open all in-house doors.
Important: Make sure the robot cannot get blocked during use.
Creating a map
Important: During mapping your robot will not clean.
Important: To create a map of a floor, it is very important to place the station
on the floor that you want to map because the robot must be in the station
when starting and ending the mapping. If you want to create a map of the 2nd
floor, the station must be placed there during the mapping process. Thereafter
the map of this floor can be used even if the station is on another floor.
Note: For model XU7100 only, after the robot has completed its mapping run,
the Auto-empty station will start emptying the robot. This is not an error but
normal behavior.

15
English
Tell your robot where not to clean with restricted cleaning
zones
In the app you can set up restricted areas to indicate where the robot is allowed
to clean and where it is not.
Virtual wall and No-Go zone
Create virtual walls and No-Go zones for areas you do not want the robot
to go. You can for example create virtual walls or No-Go zones to:
-Protect fragile objects. The robot cannot detect shiny, transparent (e.g. glass)
or dark obstacles or surfaces.
-Prevent the robot from getting stuck while cleaning.
Note: The robot can get stuck on high pile carpets, carpets with fringes or
or very light rugs like in the bathroom. Also the robot cannot detect cables on
the floor.
-Protect the robot.
Note: The robot should be kept away from liquids and wet areas such as
pet bowls and plant trays.
Important: virtual walls and No-Go zones should not be used to protect
against hazards.
Important: virtual walls and No-Go zones should not prevent the robot from
returning to the station.
Important: Do not use your robot outdoors. It was not designed for outdoor
use.
No-Mop zone
Create No-Mop zones to prevent the robot from mopping carpets or rugs.
You can adjust the following options in the app under 'Robot settings':
-Avoid No-Mop zones when the rest of the room is mopped.
-Only vacuum the No-Mop zone. Note that the mop can still be moist.
Gentle zone
Your robot can navigate over some furniture if need be. Don't want it to climb
over certain things? Draw a Gentle zone on your map. Your robot will roll up to
your furniture, climbing only a little, before turning away.
IMPORTANT: If you want your robot to still go into other rooms, make sure
that your Gentle zone isn't too close to a door with a threshold. Set your Gentle
zone at least 1 meter from a door with a threshold.

16 English
How your robot cleans
In the app, the following cleaning routines can be selected:
Routine Description
Regular
cleaning
Regular cleaning is intended for your normal daily cleaning routines. The robot cleans each
room according to the settings you specified and saved in the cleaning plan. If the
environment is not recognized, the robot maps the environment and simultaneously
vacuums it (the robot does not mop in this case). After completion, it returns to the station.
Custom
cleaning
Custom cleaning can be used to have the robot perform cleaning actions at unique
occasions. You can customize the cleaning routine of your robot to your wishes. You can
set the following three options.
- Room: the robot cleans one or more rooms in an order you specify.
- Zone: the robot cleans a zone in a room you specify
- Spot: the robot cleans in a square of 1.5 by 1.5 meter in a specific spot in your house
that you want to have cleaned.
Note: with spot cleaning, place the robot in the middle of the square you want the
robot to clean.
After selecting one of the above options, you can select a cleaning mode and fine-tune
your cleaning preferences and advanced settings.
Set cleaning preferences, advanced settings and cleaning order
In the app, you can select five different cleaning modes for each room. These are
standard modes that can be used in most situations. You can customize your
cleaning mode by fine-tuning cleaning preferences and advanced settings.
Cleaning modes
Mode Description
Wet & dry The robot vacuums and mops the floor at the same time. This mode is intended for
regular cleaning of hard floors.
IMPORTANT: For mopping sensitive hard floors, such as parquet
floors, set the mopping wetness level in the app to the lowest level.
Dry The robot only vacuums the floor. This mode can be used for areas that shouldn't be
mopped.
Quiet The robot cleans with minimal noise. The suction power is lowered and the voice
alerts are muted.

17
English
Cleaning modes
Intensive The robot vacuums and mops the floor at the same time and at full power. This mode
is intended for thorough cleaning of small areas.
Note that it is not recommended to clean large areas in this mode. The robot
passes the area 5 times, so the cleaning time and battery usage will increase
significantly.
Individual For this mode you can select all expert settings from scratch.
Cleaning preferences
For each cleaning mode, you can fine-tune the following cleaning preferences:
Setting Description
Suction power Change the suction power:
- Eco: for efficient cleaning with low energy consumption and low noise level.
- Normal: for regular cleaning and effective removal of fine dust on hard floors
with optimal balance between power and efficiency.
- High: for a thorough cleaning of large floors. Can clean more on a single charge
than max mode.
- Max: ideal for removing large dirt like pet hairs or crumbs. The strong suction
power removes fine dust particles hidden deep inside carpets and crevices.
Water level Determine the flow rate that is pumped from the electric water tank onto the mop:
- Off: Switch off the mopping wetness for uncoated wooden floors and carpets.
- Low: to mop a sensitive floor e.g. parquet. The combination of vacuuming and
mopping removes more fine dust than vacuuming alone.
- Middle: optimal for a regular wet & dry cleaning. The mop removes superficial
dirt and bacteria to keep your home sanitized and healthy.
- High: for an effective removal of footprints for a spotlessly clean home. It is
recommended to combine this setting with mop vibrations turned on and 5
cleaning path repetitions for an intensive cleaning.
Cleaning path
sequence
Specify the number of cleaning passes. One pass is sufficient for normal cleaning. It is
possible to program the robot to make two or even five passes for intensive cleaning
of stubborn dirt. It is recommended to select this option only for specific cleaning
areas as it impacts cleaning duration.
Advanced settings
For each cleaning mode, you can fine-tune the following advanced settings:
Setting Description
Mop vibration Turn the mop vibration on or off. The vibrations gently yet effectively scrub the floor
to loosen dirt and footprints.
Y-pattern mopping Change the mopping pattern to Y-pattern. By mopping in a Y-pattern, the robot will
leave less watermarks and traces. Note that the cleaning time will be a bit longer
than normal mopping.

18 English
Setting Description
Carpet boost Turn the carpet boost on or off. The robot automatically increases the suction power
when it has driven onto a carpet or rug. It is recommended to enable this setting.
However, you can disable it for rooms where no disturbance is wanted.
Using your robot
Preparing for a cleaning run
Before you start the robot on its cleaning run:

-Attach the washable mop pad to the mop pad holder.
IMPORTANT: The mop pad holder cannot be removed and when using the
robot, the washable mop pad must always be attached to the mop pad
holder, even if you use the robot without mopping. This is to prevent damage
to the floor and the mop holder during use.
-Remove all cables, wires and cords from the floor to prevent the robot from
getting entangled in them.

The robot cleans the home in a structured way. The robot cleans room by room
and always starts by cleaning the edges of the room first before covering the
remaining surface.
Note: If cleaning is completed within 10 minutes, the area will be cleaned
twice. This is an extra touch up to improve cleaning results.
