** May vary according to model PREPARING YOUR ROBO.COM² CLEANER Packaging Do not dispose of your Robo.com² packaging. It may be required in the future for storing or transporting your Robo.com². When unpacking your Robo.com² and its accessories, take care to keep plastic bags away from babies, young children and animals to avoid the risk of suffocation. Before using your Robo.com² for the first time, you must fully charge it. This will take approximately 6 hours. Do not expose the Robo.com², Mains power adaptor or Charger Base Station to temperatures below 0°c or above 30°c as this may damage the Battery. The Mains power adaptor must only be connected to a standard mains power outlet. Batteries For optimum Battery performance it is recommended that you keep your Robo.com² batteries fully charged. When the Robo.com² is not in use it should be left connected to the Charger Base Station or the Mains power adaptor. The Robo.com² has an intelligent charging system that ensures the batteries stay fully charged whilst preventing them from becoming overcharged. To avoid accidents, make sure that every person in the room is aware of the presence of Robo.com². If the Robo.com² becomes lost, place the Robo.com² on the Charger Base Station manually. Charger Base Station Setup Before use, remove obstacles that may get in the path of the Robo.com². Pay attention to: •  Objects that can be easily knocked over. •  Edges of carpets or rugs that it may get caught on. •  Floor length curtains and tablecloths. •  Heat sources or flammable items. •  Power cords and cables. •  Fragile objects. 1. Place the Charger Base Station on a non-reflective level floor, preferably against a wall. If the floor surface is too reflective, it will interfere with the Robo.com² navigation system and it may have difficulty locating the Charger Base Station. 2. There should not be any objects in the area around the Charger Base Station for 3m in front and 0.5m to each side. 3. Plug in the Mains power adaptor and connect to the Charger Base Station. Make sure the power cord is not caught underneath the Charger Base Station. 4. Make sure the Power Cord is not tangled or stretched. If there is an excess, use the power cord tie to store it neatly. 5. Check that the Dust Bin is inside the Robo.com². 6. Guide your Robo.com² into the Charger Base Station to begin charging. Initial charging will take 6 hours approximately. NOTE: There is a Night Light on the Charger Base Station that people can decide to switch ON or OFF depending on their needs. Automatic Charging When the Robo.com² battery capacity is at 15% it will stop cleaning and search for the Charger Base Station. Once docked with the Charger Base Station a light on the Charger Base will illuminate indicating that charging is in progress. The Robo.com² may fail to reach the Charger Base Station if there are many obstacles in between it and the Charger Base Station. For best results ensure that the Charger Base Station is in a wide open space. Manual Charging There are three methods to charge your Robo.com²: A. By pressing the Automatic Return to Charger Base Station button on your Remote control** or the corresponding Sensitive Touch control on your Robo.com². B. By connecting the mains power adaptor directly to the Robo.com². C. By manually placing the Robo.com² on the Charger Base Station. Important: The Robo.com² will not operate without the Dust Container fitted. The Robo.com² will not operate whilst charging or whilst connected directly to the mains power adaptor. 3m 0.5m 0.5m robo_com2 IM Australia.indd 6 7/19/2012 4:22:10 PM

Note: The Remote Control** can be used through walls because it works on radio waves not infrared. Virtual Barrier* Set Up To install batteries see Cleaner Maintenance - Replacing the batteries. The Virtual Barrier* is used to prevent the Robo.com² cleaning certain rooms or areas such as in front of fireplaces. Before setting the Virtual Barrier* remember to: •  Remove any obstacles from the area that you want to block. •  The Virtual Barrier* should be placed on the same surface that the Robo.com² is operating on. •  Ensure the Virtual Barrier* is more than 3m away from the Charger Base Station. 1. Position the Virtual Barrier* so that the infrared transmitter is pointing across the area you want to create the barrier. 2. Slide the toggle switch to the desired length of the barrier. ICON BARRIER TYPE BARRIER LENGTH Off 0m 2m Short 2m 4m Medium 4m 6m Long 6m 3. Check the Virtual Barrier* provides adequate cover whilst the Robo.com² is running. NOTE: The battery power usage relates directly to the infrared level. For longer battery life chose the correct length of infrared beam. NOTE: The near Infrared transmitter will stop the Robo.com² coming any closer than 50cm to the Virtual Barrier*. 15o 50cm robo_com2 IM Australia.indd 7 7/19/2012 4:22:12 PM
