Setup
- Unboxing and Component Check: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all parts listed in the packaging list are present: Advantage Ultra Robotic Pool Cleaner, Fine Filter Basket (9991457-R1), Power Supply Unit (99956035US-F1), User Manual, Quick Start Guide, and Registration Card.
- Power Supply Placement: Position the power supply unit at least 12 feet (3.6 meters) from the edge of the pool. Ensure it is placed in a shaded area to protect it from direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions.
- Connecting the Power Supply: Connect the floating cable from the robot to the power supply unit. Ensure the connection is secure. Plug the power supply unit into a grounded electrical outlet.
- Placing the Robot in the Pool: Gently lower the Dolphin Advantage Ultra into the pool. Allow it to sink to the bottom. Ensure the floating cable is not tangled and has enough slack for the robot to move freely.

Operating Instructions
- Powering On: Press the power button on the power supply unit. The indicator light will illuminate, signaling that the unit is active.

Troubleshooting
- Robot not moving or stopping prematurely: Ensure the power supply unit is properly connected and receiving power. Check the filter basket for excessive debris that might be clogging the system. Inspect the brushes and tracks for any obstructions.
- Poor cleaning performance: Clean the filter basket thoroughly. Ensure the pool water chemistry is balanced, as excessive algae or debris can hinder performance. Check for any damage to the scrubbing brushes.
- Cable tangling: While the patented swivel cable is designed to prevent tangling, ensure the cable is fully extended and not coiled tightly before placing the robot in the pool.
- Robot not climbing walls: Verify that the pool surface is free from excessive slime or algae. Ensure the filter is clean, as reduced suction can affect climbing ability.
