For which type of floor coverings can I use
the robot?
The robot can be used on all common surfaces,
such as carpets and hard surfaces (tiles, parque-
try, etc.). With respect to extremely deep-piled
carpets (> 20 mm), specific restrictions apply. The
moving sweeping edge is automatically adjusted
to different floor coverings.
Is it problematic to perform a cleaning
underneath pieces of furniture?
No. Due to its compact and flat design the robot
is able to clean underneath pieces of furniture,
such as beds, sofas, and wardrobes.
How does the robot transport the
absorbed dirt to the station?
The robot is equipped with a dirt receptacle
that is regularly emptied by the station.
How is the dirt absorbed in the station?
In the station, the dirt is collected in a conven-
tional filter bag (2 litres).
The exchange intervals are flexible and are re-
ported to the user in a timely manner by me-
ans of a signal device on the display.
How much dirt can the robot absorb?
In case of a normal degree of soiling, the dirt
receptacle is sufficient for one hour of cleaning.
If this should not be sufficient in the individual
case, the robot simply returns to the station
earlier, disposes of the dirt and carries on wor-
king.
How is the absorption of dirt in the robot
performed?
The dirt is swept into the dirt receptacle of
the robot by means of vacuum-supported
sweeping.
Can the robot clean in the apartment /
house without supervision?
Yes, this is possible without any problems.
The robot is an autonomous system and does
not require any intervention. The dirt recepta-
cle is emptied at the station.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take until the robot is
charged or operative?
The charging time is between 15 and 60 minu-
tes according to the charging state of the battery
before the charging. In case of the initial operati-
on, the robot certainly has the longest charging
time.
At which speed does the robot move?
By default, the robot runs at 20 cm per se-
cond. If it cleans very dirty spots, the speed is
reduced by half to intensify the cleaning. The
same applies to the final approach to the stati-
on to allow the robot to precisely manoeuvre
in.
How many square meters can the robot
clean within one hour?
The robot can clean up to 15 qm per hour.
Many spots, in particular the frequently used
paths are cleaned repeatedly from different di-
rections.
How does the robot know when it must
return to the station?
The robot returns to the station as soon as the
battery voltage has reached a specific level or
if the dirt receptacle is full.
How long does it take to empty the robot
at the station?
The process takes approximately 30 seconds.
Where is the robot programmed? What do
I have to pay attention to?
The robot
can only be turned on or off. You
can select the cleaning duration at
the stati-
on
. In addition, you can specify that the robot
should not leave the station after the next ap-
proach to the station (parking function).
According to which principle does the
robot move?
The robot moves through the room according
to the random principle. If he bumps into an
obstacle, it turns at any angle and then goes
straight until it bumps into the next obstacle.
