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 'Cleaning and
maintenance') .

Before first use

Mounting the side brushes

1 Unpack the side brushes and place the robot upside down on a table or on the floor.
2 Push the side brushes onto the shafts on the bottom of the robot (Fig. 8).
Note: Make sure you attach the side brushes properly. Press them onto the shaft until you hear
them lock into position with a click.
Removing the tag from the remote control
The remote control works on a CR2025 coin-shaped battery. This battery is protected with a
protection tag that has to be removed before use.
1 Pull the battery protection tag out of the battery compartment of the remote control. Now the
remote control is ready for use (Fig. 9).

Preparing for use

Installing the docking station

into the wall socket (2) (Fig. 10).

The display of the docking station comes on.
2 Place the docking station on a horizontal, level floor against the wall.
Note: Make sure that there are no obstacles or height differences 80 cm in front, 30 cm to the right
and 100 cm to the left of the docking station (Fig. 11).
Tip: To ensure the docking station stays firmly in the selected spot, fasten it to the wall with screws
or with two strips of double-sided tape.
Important note: deep sleep mode
In deep sleep mode, the robot does not respond at all when you press a button. To reactivate the
robot when it is in deep sleep mode:
1 Press the start/stop button on the robot for one second to switch the robot from deep sleep mode
to standby mode.
2 Press the start/stop button on the robot (Fig. 17) briefly or press the start/stop button on the
remote control to start cleaning.
3 If the robot does not start cleaning, place it on the plugged-in docking station to recharge its
rechargeable battery.
