Emptying The Bin; Advanced Operations - Makita DRC200 Instruction Manual

Cruise mode
Application:
Large floors with less obstacles such
as in a well-organized warehouse and
long gallery.
Pattern mode
Description (Fig. H-1):
The Robotic Cleaner repeats a cycle of
vertical (a) and horizontal (b) travels.*
Application:
Floors with many obstacles such as in
an office.
Description (Fig. H-2):
Random mode
The Robotic Cleaner repeats a cycle of
bouncing off (c) and along-the-wall (d)
travels.
* Depending on the conditions encountered, the
actual trail of the Robotic Cleaner may differ from
this chart.
NOTE: The Robotic Cleaner could not clean a narrow
area where the Robotic Cleaner could not travel or
where is out of the reach of the side brush.
NOTE: After a cleaning cycle is over, some dust may
remain on the floor in some conditions.
Sleep mode
If the Robotic Cleaner is left as it is for approx. 5
minutes in standby mode, the Robotic Cleaner
automatically enters sleep mode to save the batteries,
and the pilot lamp (Fig. F-1) slowly flashes. The Robotic
Cleaner also enters sleep mode when the auto-on timer
has been activated.
To return to standby mode, perform step 3 in "Basic
operations."
NOTICE: Changes of settings and starting of cleaning
operations are not possible in this mode.
Carrying the Robotic Cleaner
CAUTION: Before carrying the Robotic Cleaner,
be sure to turn OFF the Robotic Cleaner.
CAUTION: Care must be taken that your hand
never be caught between the handle and the Robotic
Cleaner's body.
Grip the handle (Fig. J-1).
NOTICE: If you support the rear bottom of the Robotic
Cleaner with another hand, care must be taken so as
not to lift that side too much as the dust and dirt in the
Robotic Cleaner drop out of the main brush opening.
NOTICE: Do not haul the Robotic Cleaner.

Emptying the bin

Empty the bin after every use to keep the Robotic
Cleaner operating at peak performance.
1. Press and hold the
the Robotic Cleaner until all indicators turn OFF, or
press the POWER OFF button (Fig. G-1) on the
remote control to turn OFF the Robotic Cleaner.
2. Press and release the top lid (Fig. K-1) to unlock it,
and then fully open the lid.
3. Take out the dust box (Fig. K-2).
4. Undo both locks (Fig. K-3), and open the dust box
lid.
5. Take out and empty the upper bin (Fig. K-4).
6. Remove small clumps of dust from the filter (Fig.
K-5) and empty the lower bin (Fig. K-6).
7. Replace the dust box in the Robotic Cleaner in the
reverse sequence.

Advanced operations

The following features can be set only when the Robotic
Cleaner is in standby mode (see step 1 in "Basic
operations").
Saving power
The Robotic Cleaner can capture most visible dust
without using the vacuum fan. If fine dust does not need
to be removed, turning OFF the vacuum fan saves
the battery power to prolong the operating time of the
Robotic Cleaner.
In standby mode, press the
Robotic Cleaner (Fig. F-10) or on the remote control
(Fig. G-7) to turn OFF the Vacuum lamp (Fig. F-10).
To turn ON the vacuum fan, press the
on the Robotic Cleaner (Fig. F-10) or on the remote
control (Fig. G-7). The lamp lights up again.
NOTICE: This setting is not possible in sleep mode
with the auto-on timer activated.
NOTICE: In cases where the vacuum fan is turned
OFF, the Filter maintenance lamp (Fig. F-3) does
not light even if the filter is full of dirt.
Adjusting the buzzer volume
Three levels of buzzer volume including mute can be
selected.
In standby mode, repeatedly press the
on the Robotic Cleaner (Fig. F-9) or on the remote
control (Fig. G-6). Each time you press the button, the
buzzer beeps in the following order: at high volume (the
lamp lights up), at low volume (the lamp lights up), and
then no sound (the lamp goes off).
NOTICE: This setting is not possible in sleep mode
with the auto-on timer activated.
