Illustration
 Select the site to set up the station so
that the cleaning robot is able to reach
several rooms.
Note : Adjust the required cleaning du-
ration (see Chapter "Select cleaning
duration").
Note : The cleaning robot normally passes
thresholds between rooms between 2 cm
and 8 cm down but not up.
 Observe the cleaning robot during the
initial cleaning process. Obstacles in
the room that cannot be overcome by
the appliance, should be removed
ahead of time. This will avoid undesired
interruptions.
 Clean up the room just like you would if
you were vacuuming prior to using the
cleaning robot. Do not leave loose ob-
jects on the floor.
 Tie up cables, strings, and curtains to
prevent the robot from pulling them
down.

If you store the appliance for more than
4 months, please make sure that the
batteries are charged completely.
 If you let the cleaning robot work while
you are on the phone or watching TV,
activate the "Quiet mode" on the sta-
tion.
Caution:
For galleries and steps, the interior cor-
ners must be protected, in case the drive-
through height under the railing is higher
than 10 cm.
