Thank you for purchasing the Zoombot™ Robotic Smart Vacuum.
Your new Zoombot™ Robotic Smart Vacuum is a smart floor-care system that will
change the way you clean floors forever. It sweeps and vacuums tile, hardwood
floors and low- to medium-pile carpets all on its own. The disposable dust cloths
help pick up the dirt, dust and hair on tile and hardwood floors. A cliff-avoidance
sensor redirects the unit to prevent the Zoombot™ Robotic Smart Vacuum from
falling down the stairs. The remote control lets you guide the unit in any direction to
clean specific areas.
Once Zoombot™ Smart Vacuum starts cleaning, it travels through several cleaning
patterns; ensuring maximum room coverage (A).

BATTERY REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
This product uses rechargeable, recyclable nickel-cadmium
batteries. When the batteries can no longer be charged,
they should be removed, recycled, or disposed of properly.
These batteries must not be incinerated or composted.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE PLASTIC COVERING FROM
THE BATTERIES.
Removing Battery Pack
1. Repeat steps 1 and 2 above.
2. Grasp the battery end opposite the socket and pull out. If the batteries have leaked
or vented, wear protective gloves before touching them.
3. Press the tab on the battery plug and pull out.
WHY YOU SHOULD RECYCLE YOUR RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
Unlike alkaline batteries that may last only a few weeks, nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd)
batteries can be recharged over and over again. Though Ni-Cd batteries last far
longer than alkalines — usually 5 to 7 years — they eventually will no longer hold a
charge. When that happens, some consumers throw away the batteries or the
product itself which is wasteful and harmful to the environment. To help avoid this,
contact your local recycling center for information on dropping off spent batteries.
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the
nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle
the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been
paid. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in
the trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an
environmentally-conscious alternative.
RBRC has established programs in the United States to facilitate the collection of
spent nickel-cadmium batteries.
Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by bringing the spent
nickel-cadmium battery to your participating local retailer for recycling. You may also
contact your local recycling center for information on dropping off spent batteries in
your town.
