6 Slide the dust container compartment cover back onto the robot until it locks into

position (Fig. 12).

Note: Make sure the two cover latches slide into the appropriate holes in the housing of the robot. The

robot does not work and the dust compartment indicator ashes when the cover latches have not been

inserted properly (see chapter ‘Using your robot’, section ‘Indicator signals and their meaning’).

Preparing for use

Charge the battery for at least 4 hours each time to ensure the rechargeable battery performs best

and has a long life. A fully charged battery gives you a cleaning time of approximately 50 minutes on

hard oors.

2 Insert the small plug of the adapter into the socket for the small plug on the robot. Insert the

adapter into a wall socket (Fig. 13).
