Prepare Before Cleaning
About carrying the robotic cleaner
CAUTION
When you carry the robotic cleaner, stop the operation, then turn the power off, and then hold the carrying handle firmly so as not to get your hand caught.
· Not doing so can cause your hand to be caught in the handle. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when lifting the robotic cleaner.
· Not doing so can cause injury or failure. Do not lift the robotic cleaner carelessly.
· Doing so can cause injury or failure. Do not hold the robotic cleaner with its front facing downward.
· Dust can fall from the suction opening.
About cleaning by the robotic cleaner
· The robotic cleaner detects obstacles by its LiDAR sensor and ultrasonic sensor and runs while avoiding those obstacles. It collects and sucks dust with its side brushes and main brush. It may fail to recognize an obstacle depending on the conditions. When it hits an obstacle, the bumper detects the contact and avoid the obstacle.
· The robotic cleaner can climb over a step of up to about 2.0 cm. If it is less than 2.0 cm, however, the robotic cleaner sometimes fails to climb over it depending on the conditions such as the shape of the step.
· On a slope or an uneven place, the undersurface of the robotic cleaner may be caught and a drive wheel may be lifted, which causes the robotic cleaner to stop due to an error. If the robotic cleaner stops often, do not allow it to enter that place. (See page 20.)
· Where there is an obstacle near a wall, the robotic cleaner may run up onto the wall while trying to avoid the obstacle.
· The LiDAR sensor may not be able to recognize obstacles with the following characteristics, which may result in inaccurate mapping or bumping into obstacles. – Highly reflective obstacles such as mirrors – Highly transparent obstacles such as glass – Obstacles made of black, glossy material – Slim obstacles such as the legs of a chair or desk
· When the robotic cleaner enters a narrow space lower than the height of the robotic cleaner, it can get caught and stuck. In such a case, place a screen or something.
1

· The robotic cleaner may not be able to suck dust in an area around a step over which the robotic cleaner can climb, a secluded or narrow space that the robotic cleaner cannot enter, or a place that the side brushes cannot reach.
· The robotic cleaner may kick away a small, hard object such as a small stone. · The robotic cleaner may climb over a step accidentally if there is an object
which can help it climbing up (for example, a board or carpet). Keep such objects away from the steps.
CAUTION
Do not use the robotic cleaner in the following places. · Do not use the robotic cleaner on places such as a carpet with a pile height of more than 7 mm, a rug with piles that fall out easily, and an uneven rug. On such a rug, the robotic cleaner may stop operating, piles may be caught in the side brushes, or the rug or the side brushes may be damaged. If the robotic cleaner cannot run well on a rug other than described above, avoid use on that rug.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner on a mattress, a blanket, a floor cushion, etc.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner in a wet area, a toilet, a bathroom, an attic, outdoors, etc.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner in a wet place, a place that may become wet, or in a hot, humid place.
To prevent the robotic cleaner from falling
WARNING
Ensure that the robotic cleaner does not fall. · If it falls, it may cause breakage or injury.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner in a mezzanine floor, a loft, a stairwell, a place without walls, or a place with a slope of 10° or more.

1. Block a gap with a screen or something.
· A black floor, a transparent floor such as a glass floor, or black areas on the grain of wood flooring may be determined to be a step by the robotic cleaner, which then tries to avoid it.

· In a place where an accident or other dangerous situation may occur due to a fall, place an object that has a height of 25 cm or more and can serve as a wall (object that does not move or topple over when hit by the robotic cleaner).

10 ENGLISH

1 1. Cliff sensor (five places) · The robotic cleaner may fail to operate properly when exposed to sunlight or infrared light from other equipment. Ensure that the robotic cleaner is not exposed to infrared light from a halogen heater, a remote control, a sensor, and other equipment and sunlight coming from frosted glass, etc.
· If there is a carpet, a mat, a plate, or other object near a step, the cliff sensor may fail to recognize it as a step. Move rugs and other objects near steps.

· A step of about 3.0 cm or less may not be recognized as a step by the cliff sensor, resulting in the robotic cleaner climbing down the step while going straight. Where there is a step of from about 2.0 to 3.0 cm, refrain from using the robotic cleaner.
· Shut any sliding doors, screens, or windows because the level difference of their frames or rails may not be recognized as a step by the bumper sensors.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner on a breakable flooring surface such as glass.
Tidying up a place to clean
WARNING
Move objects that may cause damage or an accident when the robotic cleaner comes into contact with them. Put away objects that should not be sucked in, objects that hinder the movement of the robotic cleaner, and objects that are likely to get caught in the main brush, wheels, and side brushes.
· If you leave an object that will obstruct the movement of the robotic cleaner during cleaning, it may cause an accident or injury.
· Do not use the robotic cleaner near objects that get hot, such as a heating apparatus (space heater). Doing so can cause an accident, ignition, or failure. (Do not use a heating apparatus during operation.)

· In such a place that the distance from a wall to a step is less than about 1 m, the robotic cleaner may fall while moving backward. Do not use the robotic cleaner where the distance from a wall to a step is less than about 1 m.

· Do not use the robotic cleaner in a place equipped with a retractable outlet. A retractable outlet should be always retracted.

11 ENGLISH

· For walls made of fragile material (e.g., a mud wall, a decorated door or sliding door, or a folding screen), place objects that serve as a wall in front of them so that they will not be damaged.
· Unstable objects and objects that fall down easily should be moved to another room.

· Lift the hem of a curtain, etc. that hangs down on the floor. The hem may get caught in the main brush, etc.
· Put away thin, slippery rugs, such as a mat and a carpet. The rugs and side brushes may be damaged.

· Move equipment and devices with a controller located on the same level as the robotic cleaner.
· Put away burning candles and easily breakable objects. · For objects with casters such as a truck and a wheelchair, and light chairs
that move easily, lock the casters or put them away.

· Put away thin paper and cloth, plastic bags, etc. · In a place leading to outside, close the doors to prevent the robotic cleaner
from going to outside. If the doors cannot be closed, do not use the robotic cleaner. In addition, close the doors of rooms that the robotic cleaner should not enter. · The robotic cleaner may not be able to run properly on a slippery floor surface. Check the condition of the floor before use. · Ensure a pathway of 80 cm or more for cleaning.

· Make sure that power cables are laid alongside a wall so that the robotic cleaner will not be caught in them.

· Put away long, thin objects such as a cord and a belt. · Put away small goods that are easily sucked in and valuable goods. · Put away objects that block the passage of the robotic cleaner, such as a
work table, a chair, a tool, and a plate. · If animal excrement or other liquid wastes are sucked in, the robotic cleaner
may malfunction. Clean them up. · Make sure that the tassels of a mat or other coverings are tucked inside.

What to set up before cleaning
Before cleaning, make settings for the robotic cleaner as required.
Switching the vacuum fan on/off
In the case of cleaning of visible large dust only, turning off the vacuum fan allows the running time to be longer. For how to switch the vacuum fan on/off, refer to page 18.
Switching the sound setting on/off
When the sound setting of the robotic cleaner is off, the robotic cleaner cleans silently. (See page 22.)
Setting the boundary-sensing feature
With the boundary -sensing feature on, the robotic cleaner recognizes magnetic boundary line set up on a floor surface. Magnetic boundary line serves as a boundary line, and the robotic cleaner does not go beyond the magnetic boundary line; that is, the running area can be limited. For how to set the boundary -sensing feature, refer to page 20.

1. [LOAd] flashes in the time indicator, and the four clean level lamps turn on and off clockwise. The switching speed of the lamps increases as the startup progresses.

How To Use
Cleaning
· The robotic cleaner works in three ways: – free cleaning mode, which does not require map registration, – mapping cleaning mode (see “Cleaning a room with mapping” on this page), which requires room information to be registered for cleaning, and – manual operation using the remote control.
· Free cleaning mode is recommended for cleaning in various rooms or in an environment that involves frequent, significant layout changes.
· For a room that cannot be adequately lighted at the time of mapping, use free cleaning mode.
· If the remaining battery charge of the robotic cleaner gets low, the robotic cleaner suspends cleaning and returns to the location cleaning started.
Cleaning a room with the remote control
The robotic cleaner can be operated for cleaning by pressing the action buttons of the remote control.

3. Turn right: Press .
4. Move backward: While holding down , press .
NOTICE
· Do not operate the robotic cleaner in a narrow or uneven place. · When operating the robotic cleaner with the remote control, be careful to
avoid collisions or falls. · If there is an obstacle in front of the moving robotic cleaner, the robotic
cleaner reverses to avoid it.
Cleaning a room without mapping (free cleaning mode)
1. Place the robotic cleaner beside a wall of the place that you want to clean. 2. Put the robotic cleaner into the stand -by state. (See page 15.) 3. Press the mode switch button to select [F] (free cleaning mode).
Each time the mode switch button is pressed, the displayed character is changed in the order “F, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, F, …” (each number represents a room number).

5. As the robotic cleaner determines that cleaning is finished, the robotic cleaner returns back to the place from which it started cleaning.
· When the sound setting is on, completion of cleaning is informed with a sound. (See page 22.)
· The robotic cleaner calculates its own position using the LiDAR sensor and camera sensor. For the camera sensor to function fully, it is recommended to make the room brighter for cleaning. If the room is dark, the robotic cleaner may not be able to clean some area or may fail to return back to the place from which it started cleaning.
Cleaning a room with mapping
Registering room information (mapping)
· When the rooms to clean are already determined, registering room information (registration of mapping information) in the robotic cleaner allows the cleaning to be more efficient. After completion of mapping, it becomes possible to check the cleaning result and set prohibited areas from the app.
· The number of rooms that can be registered is five. · Make the room brighter during mapping. · Keep away from the robotic cleaner during mapping. · Do not pick up the robotic cleaner during mapping. · The mapping fails if there are no obstacles with a height of 25 cm or more
within a radius of about 11 m of the robotic cleaner. In this case, cleaning in free cleaning mode is recommended. (See “Cleaning a room without mapping (free cleaning mode)” on this page)
1. Place the robotic cleaner in the place from which you want the robotic cleaner to start cleaning.
· This starting location will be a location for cleaning to start. · It is recommended to set the starting location near a wall, a corner of the
room, or other point that is easy to identify. · Keep a distance of about 30 cm from a wall. 2. Put the robotic cleaner into the stand -by state. (See page 15.) 3. Select an unmapped room number by pressing the mode switch button. · [F] is free cleaning mode. (See “Cleaning a room without mapping (free
cleaning mode)” on this page.) · Unmapped room numbers will be displayed blinking, and the room register
lamp will be on. · Mapped room numbers will be displayed lit, and the room register lamp will be
off.

the robotic cleaner to run
· When you want to divide a space that is too large to clean at one time into multiple areas for cleaning.
· When there is an area that you do not want the robotic cleaner to enter. · When there is an area that the robotic cleaner can enter but cannot leave. · When the robotic cleaner climbs over a low step but falls from it. · When the robotic cleaner gets caught in the middle of a step.
1. Lay magnetic boundary line with the following points in mind. · Be sure to lay the magnetic boundary line without any gap between it and the floor surface. · Lay the magnetic boundary line about 15 cm away from the area that you do not want the robotic cleaner to enter. · Place the magnetic boundary line on a floor surface that is as flat as possible so that it does not become unsteady. Not doing so can cause the robotic cleaner to displace the line and fail to recognize the line correctly. · The robotic cleaner may not recognize a magnetic boundary line placed on a concave or stepped surface. · Make sure that the magnetic boundary line is a genuine product. If it is not a genuine product, performance and safety cannot be guaranteed.

NOTICE
· The boundary -sensing feature is based on recognition of magnetic boundary line by a magnetic sensor. If there is tearing, lifting, etc. on the magnetic boundary line, the line may not be recognized.
· Periodically check for tears, positional deviation, and other problems of magnetic boundary line. If there is a problem such as tears, replace the line with new line.
· The boundary -sensing feature may activate near a magnetic object. When you do not want the boundary -sensing feature to work, disable the boundary sensing feature.
· In a place where people and things come and go frequently, magnetic boundary line is stepped on and damaged. If the line deteriorates, replace it with a new line.
· Depending on the floor material, it is recommend to paste the magnetic boundary line onto the floor because the robotic cleaner may move the magnetic boundary line when detecting it.
· The magnetic boundary line can be cut with scissors.
