How your robot works
What your robot cleans
This robot is equipped with features that make it a suitable cleaner to help you clean the oors in
your home. The robot is especially suitable for cleaning hard oors, such as wooden, tiled or
linoleum oors. It may experience problems cleaning soft oors, such as carpet or rugs. If you use
the robot on a carpet or rug, please stay close by the rst time to see if the robot can deal with this
type of oor. The robot also needs supervision when you use it on black and shiny hard oors.
ENGLISH
How your robot cleans
Cleaning system
The robot has a 2-stage cleaning system to clean your oors efciently.
- The two side brushes help the robot clean in corners and along walls.They also help to remove
dirt loose from the oor and move it towards the suction opening (Fig. 4).
- The suction power of the robot picks up loose dirt and transports it through the suction
opening into the dust container (Fig. 5).
Cleaning patterns
In its auto cleaning mode, the robot uses an automatic sequence of cleaning patterns to clean each
area of the room optimally.The cleaning patterns it uses are:
1 Z-pattern or zigzag pattern
2 Random pattern
3 Wall-following pattern
4 Spiral pattern
During auto cleaning, the robot uses these patterns in a xed sequence:
1 Z-pattern (Fig. 6)
2 Random pattern (Fig. 7)
3 Wall-following pattern (Fig. 8)
4 Spiral pattern (Fig. 9)
When the robot has completed this sequence of patterns, it starts moving in Z-pattern again.
The robot continues to use this sequence of patterns to clean the room until the rechargeable
battery is empty, or until it is switched off manually.
Note:You can also select each mode individually by pressing the appropriate button on the remote
control (FC8710). For more details, see chapter ‘Using your robot’, section ‘Cleaning modes’.
How your robot avoids height differences
- The robot has three drop-off sensors in its bottom. It uses these drop-off sensors to detect and
avoid height differences such as staircases (Fig. 10).
Note: It is normal for the robot to move slightly over the edge of a height difference, as its front drop-off
sensor is located behind the bumper.
Caution: In some cases, the drop-off sensors may not detect a staircase or other height
difference in time. Therefore monitor the robot carefully the rst few times you use it,
and when you operate it near a staircase or another height difference.
Before rst use
Mounting the side brushes
1 Unpack the side brushes and place the robot upside down on a table or on the oor.
2 Push the side brushes onto the shafts on the bottom of the robot (Fig. 11).
Note: Make sure you attach the side brushes properly. Press them onto the shaft until you hear them
lock into position with a click.
Removing the protection tag from the remote control
The remote control (FC8710) works on a CR2025 coin-shaped battery.This battery is protected
with a protection tag that has to be removed before use.
1 Pull the battery protection tag out of the battery compartment of the remote
control (Fig. 12).
,Now the remote control is ready for use.
ENGLISH 7
Preparing for use
Installing the docking station
1 Insert the small plug of the adapter into the socket on the docking station (1) and insert the
adapter into the wall socket (2). The display of the docking station lights up (Fig. 13).
2 Place the docking station on a horizontal, level oor against the wall (Fig. 14).
Note: Make sure that there are no obstacles or height differences 80cm in front, 30 cm to the right and
100 cm to the left of the docking station.
Charging
When charging for the rst time and when the rechargeable battery of the robot is empty,
the charging time is four hours.
Your robot can be charged in two ways:
- On the docking station, either manually or automatically during use;
- By connecting the robot directly to the mains
Note:When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, your robot can clean for up to 100 minutes.
Charging on the docking station
1 Place the robot on the plugged-in docking station (Fig. 15).
2 Press the power switch to switch on the robot (Fig. 16).
3 The on/off indicator on the display starts ashing (Fig. 17).
4 When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the on/off indicator on the display stops
ashing (Fig. 18).
Charging automatically during use
1 When the robot has nished cleaning or when only 15% of the battery power remains,
it automatically returns to the docking station to recharge.When the robot returns to the
docking station, the on/off indicator ashes quickly (Fig. 19).
2 When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the battery indicator on the display of the
robot stops ashing.
Note:The robot only returns to the docking station automatically when it started cleaning from the
docking station.
Charging directly from the mains
1 Insert the small plug of the adapter into the socket on the robot (1). Insert the adapter into a
wall socket (2) (Fig. 20).
2 Press the power switch to switch on the robot.
3 When the robot is connected to the mains correctly, the lon/off indicator starts ashing.
This indicates that the robot is charging.
4 When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the on/off indicator of the robot stops
ashing.
Preparing the room for a cleaning run
- Before you start the robot on its cleaning run, make sure that you remove all loose and fragile
objects from the oor (Fig. 21).

- You can press the on/off button on the robot.
- You can also press the on/off button on the remote control (FC8710) (Fig. 23).
Tip: If you press the on/off button on the docking station while the robot is charging, the robot starts
cleaning as soon as the rechargeable battery is full (Fig. 24).
2 The on/off indicator starts ashing slowly and the robot starts cleaning (Fig. 25).
3 The robot cleans in auto-cleaning mode until its battery runs low. In auto cleaning mode.
It follows repeated sequences of Z-pattern, random, wall-following and spiral
movements (Fig. 26).
Note:To select an individual mode, press one of the mode buttons on the remote control (FC8710).
See section ‘Cleaning mode selection’ for more details.
4 When the battery runs low, the on/off indicator starts ashing quickly and the robot returns
to the docking station to charge (Fig. 19).
5 You can also press the on/off button to interrupt or stop the cleaning run. If you press the
on/off button again and there is still enough energy in the rechargeable battery,
the robot continues cleaning in the auto cleaning mode.
6 To make the robot return to the docking station before the rechargeable battery runs low,
press the docking button on the remote control (FC8710). (Fig. 27)
- The on/off indicator lights up and the robot returns to the docking station (Fig. 28).
Note: If you did not start the robot from the docking station, it does not return to the docking station
automatically when the rechargeable battery runs low. If there is still enough energy in the rechargeable
battery, you can press the docking button on the remote control to make the robot return to the docking
station. If the rechargeable battery is completely empty, you have to place the robot on the docking
station manually.
Cleaning mode selection (FC8710)
Next to the auto cleaning mode, this robot has four individual cleaning modes that can each be
activated by pressing the appropriate button on the remote control.
Z-pattern mode
- In Z-pattern mode, the robot cleans by making Z-shaped loops through the room to clean large
areas (Fig. 29)
Random mode
- In this mode, the robot cleans the room in a mixed pattern of straight and crisscross
movements. (Fig. 30)
Wall-following mode
- In this mode, the robot follows the walls of the room to give the area alongside the walls an
extra clean (Fig. 31).
Spiral mode
- In this mode, the robot makes a spiral movement with the fan at turbo speed to clean
a dirty area thoroughly (Fig. 32).
Manual driving (FC8710)

Using the cleaning time buttons
- If you press the 24h button on the docking station, the docking station starts to count down the
24 hours until the next cleaning run. When the countdown is nished, the robot starts cleaning
until its battery runs low and then returns to the docking station automatically to
recharge (Fig. 34).
