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.
The robot is especially suitable for cleaning hard floors, such as wooden,
tiled or linoleum floors. It may experience problems cleaning soft floors,
7
English

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.
-The suction power of the robot picks up loose dirt and transports it
through the suction opening into the dust container.
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
2 Random pattern
8English

3 Wall-following pattern
4 Spiral pattern
In its auto cleaning mode, the robot uses these patterns in a fixed sequence:
z-pattern, random pattern, wall-following pattern, and spiral 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: You can also select each mode individually in the app.
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).
Before first use
