4. Then go to the „Robotic vacuum cleaners“ tab and select „Charles i8“.
5. Switch the vacuum cleaner on by using the main switch on the side of the machine

6. There are two ways to connect to the application. For faster and easier connection, we
recommend using the EZ mode.
1. EZ mode – After selecting the Charles i8 vacuum cleaner, select your WIFI and enter
your password. Continue to the next page using the „Next“ button. Next, select EZ
mode in the upper right and press the Home button ( ) on the vacuum cleaner for
approximately 4 seconds until the beep sounds and the LED indicator starts flashing
rapidly. In the app, confirm that the LED is blinking rapidly and wait until the vacuum
cleaner connects to the app. If Charles does not connect, try the process again. Make sure
your WIFI is transmitting at 2.4 GHz. If the vacuum cleaner fails to connect on the second
attempt, try connecting using AP mode.
2. AP mode – After selecting the Charles i8 vacuum cleaner, select your WIFI and enter
your password. Continue to the next page using the „Next“ button. Next, select AP mode
in the upper right and press the Home button ( ) and the Start/Cancel button ( ) on the
vacuum cleaner at the same time for approximately 4 seconds until the beep sounds and
the LED indicator begins to blink slowly. In the application, confirm that the indicator is
blinking slowly. Then go to the WIFI settings on your phone and connect to the vacuum
cleaner hotspot named „SmartLife-XXXX“ (instead of XXXX, it will be your hotspot number).
Wait until your phone connects you to the hotspot. Some devices may prompt you to
disconnect from the hotspot due to not carrying an internet connection. In this case, click
Maintain Connection and go back to the app. The device will automatically start pairing.
7. Once the device is successfully connected, you can edit the device name and add it to the
room of your choice. Click on „Done“ to access the vacuum cleaner interface.
To connect to the app, your WIFI network must be transmitting at 2.4 GHz.
