Function and Mode of Operation
Dear Customer,
thank you very much for purchasing the Kär-
cher cleaning robot RC 3000.
The RC 3000 is an automatic cleaning robot
for the indoor area of private households. It can
be used on all common floor coverings for the
autonomous, continuous routine cleaning. The
appliance consists of two components - a dok-
king station and a mobile robot.
The robot is operated with rechargeable bat-
teries. It moves according to the random me-
thod. If the robot bumps into an obstacle, it
changes its direction at a random angle. Then,
it goes straight ahead until it bumps into the
next obstacle. The flat design of the robot al-
lows it also to clean the floor underneath pie-
ces of furniture, such as beds, sofas, cup-
boards, and wardrobes. The robot is working
with optical sensors that detect stairs and steps
and prevent the robot from falling down.
The robot provides four operating programs
that allow him to automatically adjust to the
various degrees of dirt accumulation on the
floor. The control of the operating programs is
performed by means of sensors located in the
dirt receptacle and adjusts depending on the
detected degree of dirt accumulation.
If the battery is charged completely, the robot
can clean up to 60 minutes. After 20 minutes,
the robot (IR receiver) begins to search its sta-
tion (IR sender). If the robot has not found its
station after 60 minutes, it turns off its clea-
ning functions and exclusively concentrates on
the search for its station for another 60 minu-
tes.
The station serves to charge the batteries of
the robot and to empty the dirt from the dirt
receptacle. In the station, the dirt is collected
in a filter bag (2 l). Once the charging process
is completed, the robot autonomously leaves
the station and continues the cleaning.
