Setup
- Attach Cleaning Pads: Securely attach the provided mop pads to the rotating wheels on the underside of the robot. Ensure they are properly aligned and cover the entire cleaning surface.
- Connect Power: Connect the charging adapter to the robot and then plug it into a power outlet. The robot operates on corded electric power.
- Attach Safety Rope: Always attach the safety rope to a secure anchor point indoors before placing the robot on the window. This is a critical safety measure to prevent the robot from falling.
- Apply Cleaning Solution: Lightly spray a small amount of window cleaning fluid onto the mop pads. Avoid oversaturating the pads, as excessive moisture can reduce suction and cleaning effectiveness.

Safety Features

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Sophinique X5, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Robot falls from window | Mop pads are too wet; insufficient suction; beveled window frame; power interruption. | Ensure mop pads are only lightly damp. Check for proper power connection. Verify the safety rope is securely attached. For beveled frames, try starting the robot from the bottom with an upward cleaning function. |
| Robot does not move or moves erratically | Dirty mop pads; obstruction; software glitch. | Clean or replace mop pads. Remove any obstructions. Restart the robot. If using the app, ensure a stable Bluetooth connection. |
| Windows are streaky after cleaning | Dirty mop pads; incorrect cleaning solution; insufficient drying. | Change to clean mop pads frequently. Use a suitable window cleaning solution. For best results, perform a dry cleaning pass after a wet one. |
| Power cable is too short | Standard cable length. | The product includes a 2M/7ft adapter cord and a 4M/13ft extension cord, totaling 6M/20ft. Ensure both are used if extended reach is needed. |
