3. Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the filter bag
We advise you to clean the filter bag after completion of every cycle.
• Switch off the robot at the mains electricity supply and disconnect the control box from the mains.
• Take the robot out of the water using the lifting cord (Fig. 9) and put it upside down beside the pool
(Fig. 10), so as to access the filter holder plate located on the underside of the robot.
• Unlock the four hooks (Fig. 11) and pull out the 4 clips holding the plate. Remove it, holding it
upside down so that the debris stays in the bag (Fig. 12).
• Undo the 2 plastic locking clips (Fig. 13) to permit removal of the bag. Empty the bag and clean it
under running water or in slightly soapy water if necessary. If using soap, rinse thoroughly taking care
to turn it over. Do not wring to dry it, or put it in the washing machine.
• Also rinse the filter holder plate and remove any debris caught under the flaps.
• Replace the filter bag by positioning the seam over the short width of the filter holder and the
corners of the bag over the corners of the stainless steel rails (Fig. 14). Put back the plastic locking
clips
• Replace the filter holder, snap shut and lock using the hooks.
