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 floors in
your home.
The robot is especially suitable for cleaning hard floors, such as wooden, tiled or linoleum floors. It
may experience problems cleaning soft floors, such as carpet or rugs. If you use the robot on a carpet
6English
or rug, please stay close by the first time to see if the robot can deal with this type of floor. The robot
also needs supervision when you use it on very dark or shiny hard floors.
How your robot cleans
Cleaning system
The robot has a 2-stage cleaning system to clean your floors efficiently.
-The two side brushes help the robot clean in corners and along walls. They also help to remove dirt
from the floor 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 (Fig. 6)
2 Random pattern (Fig. 7)
3 Wall-following pattern (Fig. 8)
4 Spot-cleaning pattern (Fig. 9)
In its auto cleaning mode, the robot uses these patterns in a fixed sequence:z-pattern, random
pattern, wall-following pattern, and spot-cleaning pattern.
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
runs low, or until it is switched off manually.
Note (FC8715, FC8710, FC8705): You can also select each mode individually by pressing the
appropriate button on the remote control. 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.
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 first few times you use it, and when you operate
it near a staircase or another height difference. It is important that you clean the drop-off sensors
regularly to ensure the robot continues to detect height differences properly (see chapter '
Cleaning and maintenance' for instructions).
Before first use
Before first use
1Unpack the side brushes and place the robot upside down on a table or on the floor.
2Push the side brushes onto the shafts on the bottom of the robot (Fig. 10).

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
This only applies to FC8715, FC8710, FC8705.
The remote control works on a CR2025 coin-shaped battery. This battery is protected with a
protection tag that has to be removed before use.
1Pull the battery protection tag out of the battery compartment of the remote control (Fig. 11).
Now the remote control is ready for use.
Preparing for use
Installing the docking station
1Insert the small plug of the adapter into the socket on the docking station (1) and insert the adapter
into the wall socket (2) (Fig. 12).
2Place the docking station on a horizontal, level floor against a wall.
Note: Make sure that there are no obstacles or height differences 80 cm in front, 30 cm to the right
and 100 cm to the left of the docking station (Fig. 13).
Important note: deep sleep mode
In deep sleep mode, the robot does not respond at all when you press a button. To reactivate the
robot when it is in deep sleep mode:
1Press the start/stop button on the robot to bring the robot from deep sleep mode to standby
mode.
2Press the start/stop button on the robot or on the remote control to start the robot.
3If the robot does not start cleaning, place it on the plugged-in docking station to recharge its
rechargeable battery.
The robot enters deep sleep mode when you press the start/stop button for 3 seconds. It may also
enter the deep sleep mode when its battery is empty. The battery may, for instance, run empty if the
robot is unable to find its docking station.
Note: You cannot get the robot out of its deep sleep mode with the start/stop button on the remote
control. You need to press the on/off button on the robot.
Charging
-When charging for the first time and when the rechargeable battery of the robot is empty, the
charging time is four hours.
-When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, your robot can start cleaning.
-Your robot can only be charged on the docking station.

16).
Charging automatically during use
1When the robot has finished cleaning or when only 15% of the battery power remains, it
automatically searches for the docking station to recharge. When the robot searches for the
docking station, the start/stop indicator flashes quickly (Fig. 18).
2When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the start/stop indicator lights up continuously.
Note: The robot only searches for the docking station automatically when it started cleaning from the
docking station.

In this mode, the robot follows the walls of the room to give the area alongside the walls an extra
clean (Fig. 30).
Spot-cleaning mode
In this mode, the robot moves randomly on a small area to clean this area thoroughly (Fig. 31).
Note: The manually selected modes are only active for a couple of minutes. After that, the robot
switches to auto-cleaning mode.
