etc. The robot is not suitable for high pile carpets. On this material, the
robot can become stuck and unable to move around.
The robot can only be operated with the LED panel, the remote control, the
BluebotXS Plus app and/or via the Alexa voice control function. To use this
last function, you will need to purchase Alexa separately.
The robot is intended to be used with its original accessories only, and
is intended for domestic use only. The robot is not intended for use in
environments with high humidity, like bathroom areas.
2.2 General safety
This appliance can be used by children aged eight years and above and
•
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge, if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
Young children and pets should be supervised to ensure that they do
•
not play with the appliance.
The robot must be used in an environment with a temperature between
•
0°C and 40°C.

2.4 Electrical safety
1
WARNING!
In the case of overheating during charging, stop using the robot
•
immediately. Turn OFF the power switch and remove the adapter from
the power socket.
A damaged power cord can cause electric shock, overheating or re. Do
•
not destroy or modify the power cord and do not bend it too tightly. Do
not heat the cord. Do not pull or press the inexible cord excessively
with heavy objects.
Dust on the metal terminals of the power plug can result in electric
•
shock, overheating or re. Regularly remove the dust from the power
plug and surroundings with a dry cloth.
Wet hands can conduct the electric current from the robot
•
unintentionally and cause electric shock. Do not touch the power cord,
plug or adapter with wet hands.
Charging and powering the robot with components that are not original
•
parts can cause electric shock, overheating or re. Only use the original
battery, charging base and power adapter (UK Type Adapter Model No.:
GQ12-240060-AB; EU Type Adapter Model No.: GQ15-240060-AG).
A short-circuit occurs when the positive (+) pole and the negative (-)
•
pole of the battery are connected. Short-circuits can cause heat
generation in metal objects, re or explosion. Prevent short-circuits by
keeping metal objects or conducting substances away from the battery
poles.
Before charging, check whether the adapter and outlet are properly
•
connected.
The adapter must use an alternating voltage of 100-240 VAC.
•
Do not use the power adapter with an AC converter.
•
2.5 Fire and explosion hazard
Do not switch the robot on within or let the robot enter a ammable
•
and/or combustible environment.
Do not use the robot to clean combustible or highly volatile substances,
•
such as gasoline.
6
EN
2.6 Maintenance
Never wash the main body or the charging device. Only the dustbin and
•
lters are washable (except HEPA lters). Do not wash other parts of this
robot. Return the dustbin and lters to the main body when dry.
Clean the outside of the robot with a soft cloth. When the robot is very
•
dirty, use a slightly damp cloth and a neutral solution.
When the dustbin is full, empty it before next use.
•
Cleaning and user maintenance should not be done by children without
•
supervision.
2.7 Transport and Storage
We recommend that you retain the original carton and packing
•
materials for transporting the robot for service. This is the only way to
safely protect the robot against damage in transit. If you do dispose of
the carton and the packing materials, please remember to recycle with
due care for the environment.
Turn o the power switch when the robot will not be used for an
•
extended period of time. Battery leakage may cause re, injury or
pollution to the environment. Cut the power source of the adapter and
disconnect the plug from the socket.
2.8 Recycling and Disposal
The battery must be insulated with tape when taken for recycling or
•
disposal. Contact with other metals could lead to heating, bursting or
re. Bring the insulated battery to a technical service centre with an
authorised reseller for disposal. Alternatively, dispose of the battery
according to local laws.
Turn o the power switch during transportation.

Random Cleaning mode:
•
The robot will clean the area by random movements. The robot is not
able to map the area. When the battery is almost empty, the robot will
return to the charging station.
Intensive Cleaning mode:
•
The robot will rst start mapping the area by cleaning the edges. When
mapping is complete, the robot will start cleaning the area by zigzag
movements. The robot will then clean the area a second time. When
nished, the robot will return to the charging station.
