3. Setup
3.1 Charging Dock Placement
Place the charging dock against a wall in an open, uncluttered area. Ensure there is at least 0.5 meters (1.6 feet) of clear space on either side of the dock and 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) in front of it. Connect the power adapter to the charging dock and plug it into a wall outlet. The robot will automatically return to the dock to recharge when its battery is low.

3.2 Initial Charge
Before first use, fully charge the robotic vacuum. Place the robot on the charging dock, ensuring the charging contacts align. The indicator light on the robot will show charging status.
3.3 Wi-Fi Connectivity and App Setup
Download the Greenworks SMARTg app from your device's app store. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your robotic vacuum to your home Wi-Fi network. This enables remote control, scheduling, and access to advanced features.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Starting a Cleaning Cycle
Press the power button on the robot or use the Greenworks SMARTg app to start a cleaning cycle. The robot will begin cleaning using its intelligent path planning.

4.3 Multiple Cleaning Modes
The vacuum cleaner offers four distinct vacuuming modes, selectable via the mobile app:
- Vacuuming along the wall: For thorough edge cleaning.
- Partial vacuuming: Focuses on a specific area.
- Quick vacuuming: For fast cleaning of a general area.
- Timed vacuuming: Scheduled cleaning at a set time.
Additionally, you can switch between four suction modes: Quiet, Standard, Medium, and Powerful, to suit different cleaning needs and noise preferences.
