4.5 I Storage and wintering
• For wintering, drain off all the water from the cleaner (damage caused by frost is not covered by the warranty).
• Clean the whole device and the hoses in clean water then leave to dry.
• Store them in a dry place protected against frost
• Remove all the connectors and adaptors from the brush socket or the skimmer.
• Remove the hose sections. Check that the hoses are not blocked and store them flat.
Tip: Preserve the condition of the hoses during storage
When the cleaner is stored away, even for short periods, avoid rolling the hoses: they may take on a shape
which may harm the cleaner's performances.
❺ Troubleshooting
• Before you contact your reseller, please carry out these few simple checks using the following
tables if a problem occurs.
• If the problem continues contact your reseller.
5.1 I Device behaviour
The cleaner is
immobile or very
slow.
• Check that your pool's bottom plug is fully closed.
• Clean and empty the skimmer baskets and the pump's pre-filter.
• Check that the debris does not slow down or stop the motor's operation (see §
“4.3
I Removing debris from the motor”
)
• Remove the suction adaptor under the cleaner (see §
“3.5 I Choice of suction mode:
small or large debris (according to model)”)
.
• Check the flow (see §
“3.4 I Adjusting the water flow”
).
• Check that there is no air in the system. If the level of water in the pump's pre-filter
falls or if there are a lot of air bubbles from the discharge nozzles, this means that
there is air in the system. Check the hose conditions and check the filtration pipes.
• Check that the pool coating is not covered with algae which make the surface slippy and
affect the cleaner's traction.
If it is, carry out shock chlorination and slightly reduce the
pH.
The cleaner
does not move
everywhere in the
pool.
• Check the flow (see §
“3.4 I Adjusting the water flow”
).
•
Check that the discharge nozzles are pointing downwards.
•
Check that the hose is not folded or rolled up. Leave it to dry flat if necessary.
•
Check that the hose is long enough (see §
“2.2 I Hose section assembly”
)
. If it is not,
add hose sections.
•
Check that the hose floater is correctly positioned (see §
“2.2 I Hose section assembly”
)
.
•
Monitor the cleaner for more than five minutes and check that each track changes
direction regularly.
The cleaner is
stopped on the
steps.
•
Make sure the rotating seal on the top of the cleaner turns freely.
•
Test the flow by checking the wheel rotation speed (see §
“3.4.1 Checking the wheel
rotation speed”
).
•
Check that the hose is not too long (see §
“2.2 I Hose section assembly”
)
. If it is,
shorten it by removing sections.
The cleaner does
not climb the pool
sides
•
Check the flow (see §
”3.4 I Adjusting the water flow”
)
and increase it if necessary (see
§
“3.4.2 Adjusting the water flow”
).
•
Check that the hose floater is correctly positioned (see §
“2.2 I Hose section assembly”
)
.
•
Check that the sides are not slippy (caused by algae).
The cleaner goes
beyond the water
level.
•
Reduce the flow (see §
“3.4.2 Adjusting the water flow”
).
•
Check that the hose floater is correctly positioned (see §
“2.2 I Hose section assembly”
)
.
The cleaner is on
the side.
•
Check that the hose floater is correctly positioned.
