Do NOT turn OFF the Main Power Switch as the battery will not be
recharged. If the machine is returned manually with the Main Power
Switch OFF, it shows an error message, "Main power switch on the
back of the HOM-BOT is turned off. Please turn the switch on."
In the event that the unit returns to the Home Station due to a
low battery during the cleaning, cleaning will be started, after the
charging, from the nearest place of the area which has not been cleaned before. (Page 18)
If Robot Cleaner is unable to dock to the home station on its fi rst attempt, it will try again until it docks
successfully.
When Robot Cleaner has completed all areas that it can clean, it will return to the home station even when
the battery level is not low.
If using the Robot Cleaner for the fi rst time or when charging the battery during cleaning, you can manually
charge the battery.
Method 1. Attach the Robot Cleaner to the home
station by aligning to the front side of the
