Before first use
Mounting the side brushes
1 Unpack the side brushes.
2 Push the side brushes onto the shafts on the bottom of the robot (Fig. 7).
Note: Make sure you attach the side brushes properly. Press them onto the shaft until you hear them
lock into position with a click.
inserting the rechargeable battery
You have to insert the rechargeable battery before use.
1 Put the robot on a flat and stable surface in front of you with the bumper towards you.
2 Press the two ribbed areas on the dust container compartment cover firmly to unlock
it (Fig. 8).
3 Slide the cover off the robot (Fig. 9).
4 Push the plug of the rechargeable battery onto the connector in the rechargeable
battery cavity.
Note: The plug only fits on the connector in one way: with the tab on the side of the hook on the
connector (Fig. 10).
5 Place the rechargeable battery in the rechargeable battery cavity (Fig. 11).
6 Slide the dust container compartment cover back onto the robot until it locks into
position (Fig. 12).
Note: Make sure the two cover latches slide into the appropriate holes in the housing of the robot.
The robot does not work and the dust compartment indicator flashes when the cover latches have not
been inserted properly (see chapter 'Using your robot', section 'Indicator signals and their meaning').
Preparing for use
Charge the battery for at least 4 hours each time to ensure the rechargeable battery performs best
and has a long life. A fully charged battery gives you a cleaning time of approximately 50 minutes on
hard floors.
Charging
1 Make sure the on/off switch is in 'off' position when you start charging the robot.
2 Insert the small plug of the adapter into the socket for the small plug on the robot.
Insert the adapter into a wall socket (Fig. 13).
3 When the rechargeable battery is charging, the battery indicator flashes slowly (Fig. 14).
4 When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the battery indicator switches off.
Note: It is possible that the on/off switch is still in 'on' position while charging. In that case, the robot
will not work when you press the on/off switch once to start a new cleaning run. You have to press the
on/off switch a second time to switch on the robot.
