Charging automatically during use
1 When the robot has finished cleaning or when only 15% of the battery power remains, it
automatically searches for the docking station to recharge. When the robot searches for the
docking station, the start/stop indicator flashes quickly (Fig. 17).
2 When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the start/stop indicator lights up continuously.
Note: The robot only searches for the docking station automatically when it started cleaning from the
docking station.
Clap response
The clap response is enabled when the robot enters sleep mode in the following situations:
- when it stops cleaning due to an error
- when it cannot find its docking station in 20 minutes
If you do not see the robot, you can locate it by clapping your hands once. The robot will respond by
beeping and by lighting up all icons on its display.
