Switching on the robot vacuum
cleaner
 Press the I/0 switch on the side of the
robot vacuum cleaner to the I
position.
The rechargeable battery status
indicator lights up in the display. The
robot vacuum cleaner will switch into
standby after approx. 60 seconds. The
robot vacuum cleaner is reactivated by
pressing any button on the remote
control or one of the sensor fields in the
display.
Connecting the base station
 Place the base station on a level
surface against a free wall within easy
access of a power socket. Ensure

of at least 1.5 m in front and 0.5 m to
the right and left of the base station.

 Insert the supplied power supply plug
into the socket at the back of the
base station. You can wind excess
cable around the cable rewind. Guide
the cable through one of the two
cable runs.
 Insert the country-specific power
adapter into the power supply until it
audibly engages and then plug it into
the selected power socket.
Charging the rechargeable battery
The rechargeable battery is supplied
not fully charged. Before using for the
first time, it must be fully charged while
the robot vacuum cleaner is switched
on (switch I/0 to I).
The battery can also be charged when
the robot vacuum cleaner is switched
off (switch I/0 to 0). In this case, the
vacuum cleaner indicators will not
react.
