Failure to comply with the following warnings can
result in permanent injury, electric shock or drowning.
• Keep the control unit at least 3 metres from the
edge of the pool. Never submerge the control unit.
• Only connect the control unit to a receptacle
protected by a Residual Current Device (RCD),
having a rated residual operating current not
exceeding 30mA. Contact a certified electrician if
you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected
by a RCD.
• Do not use an extension cord to connect the
control unit.
• Do not allow anyone to swim while the Zodiac V1
robotic cleaner is in the pool.
For your safety and to obtain the best possible
performance from your Zodiac V1, connect the
cleaner’s oating cable to the cleaner's control unit by
twisting the threaded connector until it is snug. Do not
overtighten. Refer to Figure 3.
1. While holding the cleaner by the handle, submerge
the cleaner in the pool and remove any air trapped
inside by keeping the unit vertical. Make sure that
the cleaner sinks to the bottom of the pool. Refer
to Figure 4.
2. Spread the oating cable out over the pool,
ensuring there are no kinks or bends in the cable.
Refer to Figure 5.
1. To start your Zodiac V1 robotic cleaner, press
the ON/OFF button. Refer to Figure 6. The green
indicator light will illuminate briey and the
cleaner will start up after just a few seconds.
NOTE: The cleaner will clean the oor and lower portion
of the pool wall. The cleaner will not reach the
water line.
2. If you wish to stop the cleaner during the cleaning
cycle, press the ON/OFF and ensure that the green
LED light goes off. Refer to Figure 6.
3. At the end of the cycle, the cleaner needs a cool
down period of 15 minutes to prevent damage to
the seals. During this period, the green indicator
light stays ON permanently.

The green indicator light on the control unit will
illuminate for a short period to indicate that the cycle
is ready to start. Do not try to start a cycle until the
indicator is illuminated.
• The Zodiac V1 control unit is equipped with an
automatic shut off feature to prevent overheating if
operated in direct sunlight for an extended period of
time.
The Zodiac V1 control unit is water-resistant, not
waterproof. In order to prevent the risk of electric
shock which could result in serious injury or death,
never submerge the control unit.
