Detailed Description

The robot uses side brushes to move dust and debris toward the suction passage. A dustbin beneath the top cover collects the extracted material. The dustbin contains a primary filter and a high-performance filter that help retain fine particles before air exits the unit.

Two drive wheels move the cleaner across the floor, while a nose wheel supports the front section. A bumper helps detect contact with larger objects. Cliff sensors monitor the floor near edges and stairs, and charging pins connect the robot to the dock.

The charging dock includes a power socket, signal light, and charging contacts. The remote control provides directional movement, cleaning-mode selection, suction adjustment, pause and start functions, and automatic return-to-dock control.

Safety

• Use the V2 Robotic Vacuum Cleaner indoors in a household environment only. Do not operate it outdoors or in commercial or industrial areas.
• Children under eight years old and people who require supervision should not operate the robot without appropriate oversight. Do not allow children to sit on it or use it as a toy.
• Remove power cords, small objects, loose fabric, and other items that could become trapped before starting a cleaning cycle. Lift carpet fringes and keep curtains or tablecloths away from the floor.
• Check whether the cliff sensors can recognize suspended steps or stairs. Install safe barriers where necessary to prevent falls.
• Keep fingers, hair, clothing, and other body parts away from moving or open mechanisms.
• Do not use the robot on standing water, stone-covered floors, or areas containing paper that could block the suction passage.
• Keep the robot away from flames, gasoline, toner, cigarettes, ashes, matches, and other flammable or burning materials.

• Install the dustbin and filters correctly before operation.
• Do not operate the cleaner in a room where a baby is sleeping.
• Turn off the robot before maintenance. Unplug the charging dock before cleaning the dock or its electrical components.
• If the robot will remain unused for an extended period, turn off its power after fully charging it and store it in a dry, well-ventilated location.
• Remove the battery before disposing of the robot. Dispose of the robot and battery according to local regulations, and never incinerate the unit.

Setup and Operation

Prepare the Cleaning Area

Clear the floor of power cables, small objects, paper, stones, and loose materials. Arrange furniture so the robot has enough room to pass and fold up carpet edges that could catch beneath the cleaner. Avoid standing in narrow doorways or hallways while the robot is working because this can block its route and leave areas uncleaned.

Install the Charging Dock

1. Connect the power adapter to the charging dock.
2. Plug the adapter into a compatible power supply.
3. Place the dock horizontally against a wall.
4. Leave at least 1 meter of clear space on both sides of the dock.
5. Leave at least 2 meters of open space in front of the dock.
6. Keep mirrors and other reflective objects away from the dock.

The dock signal light turns on when the dock is connected to power. Keep the charging contacts clean so the robot can establish a reliable connection.

Charge the Robot

Fully charge the robot for 12 hours before its first use. For regular operation, leave the cleaner on its powered charging dock after a cleaning cycle so it is ready for the next run. During automatic cleaning, the robot searches for the dock when its battery becomes low. You can also press the automatic charge button on the remote control to send it back manually.

Start, Pause, and Sleep

• Press and hold the robot’s AUTO button for 3 seconds to turn it on.
• Press the AUTO button once to start cleaning or pause an active cycle.
• Hold the AUTO button for 8 seconds to turn the robot off.
• If the robot remains unused for 10 minutes, it enters sleep mode automatically.
• Press the robot’s AUTO button or the remote’s AUTO button once to wake the unit, then press again to begin cleaning.

In selection mode, the indicator flashes while the robot remains stationary. During cleaning, the indicator stays on continuously. In sleep mode, the display light is off.

Indicator Colors

• Green: Battery level is at least 15 percent.
• Orange: Battery level is 15 percent or lower.
• Red: A failure or abnormal condition has been detected.

Use the Remote Control

Install the two AAA batteries before using the remote. Remove them if the remote will not be used for a long time.

• Directional controls: Turn the robot left or right. The forward control moves the robot ahead in sleep mode.
• Start/Pause: Wake, start, or pause the robot depending on its current state.
• Classic cleaning: Starts a straight-path cleaning pattern that changes direction after detecting or contacting obstacles.
• Spot mode: Cleans a concentrated area using a spiral pattern. Position the robot near the area before starting.
• Edge mode: Directs the robot to clean along room edges and walls.
• MAX mode: Increases suction while the robot is operating in automatic cleaning mode.
• Auto charge: Sends the robot to search for its charging dock.

The direction buttons cannot be used during an active cleaning cycle. Use the start/pause control first if you need to reposition the robot.

Set a Daily Schedule

Place the robot on its charging dock. Double-click the automatic charge button on the remote to use the current time as the daily scheduled start time. To cancel the schedule, press the same button three times while the robot is on the dock.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Turn off the robot and unplug the adapter before removing accessories or carrying out maintenance.

Side Brushes

1. Remove each side brush from the robot.
2. Wipe away hair, dust, and debris with a clean cloth.
3. Reinstall each brush in its matching position.

Observe the L and R markings when replacing the side brushes so each brush returns to the correct side.

Sensors and Charging Pins

Use the supplied cleaning tool or a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and foreign material from the cliff sensors, robot charging pins, and dock charging pins. Clean these areas promptly when debris is visible because contamination can interfere with navigation or charging.

Dustbin and Filters

Empty and clean the dustbin after every use.

1. Remove the dustbin from the robot.
2. Check and clear debris from the dustbin and suction inlet.
3. Remove accumulated dirt from the primary filter and high-performance filter.
4. Wash the primary filter with water after approximately 15 to 30 days of use.
5. Allow the washed primary filter to dry completely in a cool, well-ventilated place. Do not squeeze it.
6. Do not wash the high-performance filter. Shake it gently to release dust.
7. Reinstall all parts only after washable components are completely dry.

Replacement Guidance

• Dustbin: Clean after every use; replace only when damaged or unable to function correctly.
• High-performance filter: Replace about every 3 to 5 months. Homes with pets may require replacement more frequently.
• Spinning side brushes: Inspect weekly and replace when worn, bent, or damaged.
• Charging dock: Inspect weekly and keep its contacts clean.

Troubleshooting

The robot uses beeps and indicator behavior to signal abnormal conditions. Before troubleshooting, remove the robot from hazards and switch it off when maintenance is required.

• Wheels or side brushes do not operate: Check the wheels and side brushes for hair, threads, or other obstructions. Clean the affected parts and try again.
• Cliff or bumper sensor failure: Clean the cliff sensors, gently move the bumper, and check for foreign material lodged around the bumper or sensor areas.
• Robot is stuck: Move the robot to an open section of floor, remove the obstruction, and restart the cleaning cycle.
• Robot will not charge: Confirm that the dock is connected to power, position the robot correctly on the charging contacts, and clean the robot and dock charging pins.
• Cleaning performance is reduced: Empty the dustbin, clear the suction inlet, clean the primary filter, and shake dust from the high-performance filter.
• Robot skips areas: Remove floor obstructions, open blocked passages, and avoid standing in narrow routes while the robot is operating.

Restart Procedure

1. Hold the AUTO button for 8 seconds to turn the robot off.
2. Wait briefly, then hold the AUTO button for 3 seconds to turn it on.
3. Start a new cleaning cycle and check whether the issue has cleared.

If the problem continues after restarting and cleaning the relevant components, stop using the robot and arrange qualified repair service.
