3. Setup

3.1 Preparation Work

1. Clear the Area: Before starting, clean up scattered wires, hard objects, and sharp objects (e.g., iron nails, glass) from the floor. Move away items that are easy to tip over, fragile, valuable, or potentially dangerous to prevent entanglement, obstruction, or damage.
2. Suspended Environments: If using in a suspended environment (e.g., duplex floor), ensure a firm physical barrier is in place to prevent personal injury or property damage from accidental falls.
3. Water on Floor: Ensure there is no accumulated water on the floor. Do not wash the main unit with water to prevent water penetration damage.
4. Install Side Brush: Align and install the side brush onto the robot. You will hear a "click" sound when it is correctly installed.
5. Remove Protective Films: Remove all protective films from the robot and the base station.

3.2 Base Station Installation

Place the base station on a flat, hard floor indoors. Insert the power cord firmly into the power socket. Ensure there are no objects within 0.5 meters (1.64 ft) on both sides of the charging station and within 1.5 meters (4.92 ft) in front of it to prevent signal blockage. Avoid placing reflective objects (e.g., floor mirrors) around the charging station, as this may interfere with signal reflection.

3.3 Power On and Initial Charge

1. Press and hold the power button () for 3 seconds to power on the robot. The robot will automatically power on when charging.
2. Once the Power Indicator remains solid, place the robot in front of the Charging Base (ensure the Base is powered on).
3. Short press the power button () twice: the robot will automatically return to the Base to charge.

For daily use, keep the robot docked on the Base to maintain optimal battery performance.

During charging:

• When the battery level is less than 50%, the purple light breathes.
• When the battery level is greater than 50%, the blue light breathes.

3.4 Mopping Function Setup

1. Open the water tank stopper, pour in an appropriate amount of clean water, and then close the stopper.
2. Remove the mop cloth, soak it thoroughly in clean water, wring it until it reaches a semi-dry state with no dripping water, then reinstall it onto the water tank assembly.
3. Precisely align the mop cloth with the adhesive area on the water tank assembly, then press the mop cloth firmly to attach it securely to the bottom.
4. Precisely align the water tank fixing posts with the bracket mounting holes, press vertically downward until a "click" sound is heard, ensuring that the water tank assembly is fully attached to the bottom of the main unit. Once installed, the mopping function can be activated.

3.5 App Download and Connection

1. Download the App: Search for "Lefant" in your device's app store (iOS or Android) or scan the QR code provided in the manual to download and install the Lefant app.
2. Enter Network Configuration Mode: Press and hold the Power button () for 6 seconds until you hear two 'beep-beep' tones, then release. The indicator light will flash, indicating the main unit has entered Network Configuration Mode.

• Blue light flashing: The robot enters the network configuration state.
• Steady Red Light: The robot automatically returns for charging due to low battery level.

4.3 Start Cleaning

Press the power button () briefly to start cleaning. The robot will dynamically plan the cleaning route and efficiently cover the cleaning area in a default back-and-forth pattern.

Note:

• To ensure smooth return to the base station, it is recommended to let the robot start cleaning automatically from the charging state. Do not move the base station during cleaning.
• If the robot has a low battery, charge it first before starting cleaning.
• Before cleaning, tidy up all wires and valuable items to prevent power cuts, damage, or entanglement.

4.4 Pause Cleaning

When the robot is in operation, press the power button () briefly once to pause. To make the robot return to the charging dock, press the power button () briefly twice. In the paused state, press the power button () briefly once to resume cleaning. Alternatively, place the paused robot back onto the base station (ensuring alignment with the charging contacts) to terminate the cleaning task.

4.5 Sleep Mode

If the robot remains idle for more than 5 minutes, it will automatically enter sleep mode and can be woken up by pressing any button. When the battery level is below 70%, the robot will shut down after 24 hours of standby. When the battery level is below 30%, the robot will shut down 10 minutes after entering sleep mode.

4.6 Automatic Dust Collection

After the robot finishes cleaning, it will automatically return to the base station for automatic dust collection.

Note: Ensure that the base station top cover and the disposable dust bag are properly installed before using the dust collection function.

4.7 Charging

After cleaning, the robot will automatically return to the base station for charging. If the robot fails to locate the base station, it will return to its starting position. Manually place the robot back to the base station for charging if needed.

5. Maintenance

General Note: Before cleaning or maintaining the base station and the robot, ensure they are powered off. The frequency of parts replacement depends on actual usage conditions. Replace relevant parts if abnormal wear occurs to avoid affecting cleaning performance.

5.1 Dust Bin

1. Remove the dustbin from the robot.
2. Press the dustbin buckle to open the dustbin and clear the debris inside it.
3. Remove the filter screen bracket and take out the HEPA filter.
4. Clean the HEPA filter with the cleaning brush. Do not wash it with water. Replace the filter with a new one in a timely manner according to its dirtiness.
5. The main body of the dustbin and the filter screen bracket can be washed with water. After cleaning, air-dry them for at least 24 hours until completely dry before reinstalling.

5.2 Mop Cloth

1. Remove the water tank assembly and the mop cloth.
2. Empty any remaining clean water from the water tank.
3. Clean the mop cloth promptly and air-dry it thoroughly to prevent bacterial growth and odor. A dirty mop cloth will compromise cleaning performance. Replace regularly based on wear.

5.3 Main Brush

1. Open the main brush cover, then take out the main brush.
2. Remove hair and debris tangled around the main brush. Reinstall the main brush onto the main unit, ensuring it is properly fitted.

5.4 Side Brush

After cleaning the side brush, reinstall it onto the main unit for continued use. If the brush bristles are deformed or severely worn, replace the side brush in a timely manner.

5.5 Main Unit Sensors and Components

Wipe and clean each sensor of the main unit with a soft dry cloth, including:

• ToF Sensor
• Obstacle Avoidance Sensor
• Cliff Sensors (clean once a week to prevent dust from blocking and affecting the signal).

Clean the omnidirectional wheel, side wheels, and charging contacts regularly according to usage conditions.

5.6 Base Station Maintenance

Do not rinse the base station with water. Disconnect the power supply before performing maintenance.

1. Wipe the charging contacts on the base station with a dry cloth to ensure smooth charging.
2. Wipe the dock location beacon on the base station with a dry cloth to avoid signal interference.
3. Wipe the suction inlet on the base station with a dry cloth.
4. Open the base station top cover, then take out the dust bag and discard it. Do NOT let the garbage inside spill into the dust container, and keep the dust collection bin clean.
5. Install a new dust bag into the slot. Push the dust bag fully into place to prevent garbage leakage or damage. Lay the dust bag flat and then close the base station top cover, ensuring it is fitted and tightly sealed.

6. Troubleshooting

When the robot encounters issues, its red indicator light will either turn on or flash, and beep with varying durations and intervals. The following table provides a summary of the corresponding causes and solutions:

If the above methods don't resolve the problem, try the following: Hold the start/pause button on the robot for 12 seconds. After hearing a long "beep", turn off, then long press for 3 seconds to restart.

6.1 Frequently Asked Questions

7. Specifications

8. User Tips

• Initial Cleaning: It is recommended to supervise the robot during its first cleaning cycle to address any potential minor issues and ensure smooth autonomous cleaning thereafter.
