Robot Cleaner is capable of memorising the cleaning environment through its Learning mode for an intelligent cleaning operation.

※

'Learning Mode' is available only when the machine starts

cleaning from the Home Station.

Tip

• Precautions with Smart Operation

- This Learning mode enables memorizing locations with obstacles to bypass them. Robot Cleaner memorizes every aspect of the environment it was put under from when it started cleaning from the Home Station to the moment it finishes its course.

- Robot Cleaner learns the new conditions when the location of Home Station has been changed.

- If the learning mode is accepted, a voice message will say "The learning cleaning process is complete."

MOP CLEANING (OPTION)

“Click!”

By attaching the ultra microﬁ ber mop, you can effectively use the Robot Cleaner to remove dust.

When the mop plate is attached, the Robot Cleaner will not climb on to carpets or over thresholds, in order to prevent transferring dirt from the mop.

Caution

Do not cover the bottom camera sensor by mop.

For mop cleaning, mount the mop and mop plate to the Robot Cleaner according to the following instructions:

1. Attach the ultra microﬁ ber mop to the Velcro of the mop plate as shown in the ﬁ gure.

ENGLISH

2. Firmly push the Mop Plate into the furrows until you hear a 'click' sound.

※ Note that, if the Mop Plate is not secured correctly, it

may separate during the cleaning.

3. It is essential that the ﬁ xing hooks on the Mop Plate align correctly on to the ﬁ xing grooves on the underside of the cleaner.

Tip

• To avoid odors, wash any foreign material or dust off the mop after cleaning is complete.

• To avoid staining floors, do not use the ultra microfiber mop to clean when dirt is mixed with liquids such as coffee or ink.

• To avoid damage to carpets from the Velcro or dirt transfer from the mop, do not clean the carpet while the mop plate or mop is attached.

• Keep the ultra microfiber mop dry. Do not use it on wet surfaces.

If there is moisture, it can interfere with the navigation.

• Smart Diagnosis feature is not available, when the Mop Plate is attached.

LOCATION SEARCH FUNCTION

Zigzag

The Robot Cleaner remembers its location while cleaning. If the user moves the Robot Cleaner while it is operating, it will search for the location it was moved from by using its navigational location search function before continuing to clean.

※

The navigating function will be activated after the Robot

Cleaner adequately recognizes the cleaning environment.

When the location search function

is activated, the cleaning mode of

the status indicator will ﬂ ash

Manual Relocation.

1. Locate the Robot Cleaner near the location where it was originally moved from.

※

The location search is more effective when the Robot

Cleaner is closer to the location where it was moved from.

※

If it is moved from its original cleaning position by more

than 1 m, it becomes difﬁ cult for the Robot Cleaner to search for it's previous location.

Change location

2. Press the START/STOP button on the Robot Cleaner or START button on the remote controller. Robot Cleaner will then start the location search function along with an audio guide.

※

When the location search is successfully completed, it will continue cleaning from where it was moved.

If the location search fails, it will start again from the beginning.

To improve its accuracy, do not

stand near the HOM-BOT when it

is in location search mode.

Tip

• When the power is turned off after the location search function is set, the location search function will be canceled.

• Location search will be more effective when the Robot Cleaner is closer to the location where it was moved from.
