Preparing the environment
● Keep the floor free of objects lying around to ensure
efficient cleaning. Obstacles require time-consum-
ing cleaning because the cleaning robot has to drive
around objects.
● Open the doors of the rooms that are to be cleaned.
● When operating the cleaning robot with the app:
Carry out the configuration in the app so that the
cleaning robot can clean according to individual
cleaning requirements (no-go zones, different
cleaning parameters, etc.), see chapter Settings in
the app.
Settings on the robot
Cleaning can also be started from the cleaning robot
without an app. The following commands can be exe-
cuted using the buttons:
● Start cleaning via the On/Off/Pause button.
● Interrupt cleaning via the On/Off/Pause button.
● Return the cleaning robot manually to the charging
station via the Home button.
The cleaning robot automatically returns to the charging
station for recharging when it has completed a cleaning
task or when it is low on energy during a cleaning pro-
cess.
The Kärcher Home Robots App offers the following
main functions, among others:
● Step-by-step guide for configuration options
● Map creation for rooms and several floors
● Setting of time schedules
● Definition of no-go zones and virtual walls
● Notes on faults or malfunctions and the cleaning
progress
● Setting of cleaning parameters such as amount of
water, cleaning intensity, number of passes or car-
pet avoidance mode
● Establishment of cleaning zones
● Activation/deactivation of the "Do not disturb" mode
● FAQ with detailed troubleshooting
