Setup Guide
1. Initial Charging
Before the first use, ensure the robot vacuum is fully charged. Place the charging dock against a wall in an open area with good Wi-Fi signal. Make sure the robot's main power switch (located on the side) is in the 'ON' position before placing it on the charging base. The indicator lights will confirm charging status.

2. Attaching Side Brushes and Mop Pad
Gently press the side brushes into their designated slots on the underside of the robot until they click into place. For mopping functionality, slide the mop pad plate into the slot at the rear of the robot. Ensure the mop cloth is properly attached to the plate.
3. Filling the Water Tank
The Lefant M1 features a 2-in-1 dustbin and water tank. To fill the water tank, remove the combined unit from the robot. Open the water tank cap, fill with clean water, and securely close the cap. Reinsert the tank firmly into the robot.
4. App Installation and Connection
Download the "Lefant" app from your mobile app store (available on iOS and Android). Follow the in-app instructions to register an account and add your Lefant M1 robot. Ensure your home Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz, as the robot only supports this frequency.

Operating the Robot
1. Cleaning Modes
The Lefant M1 offers various cleaning modes to suit different cleaning needs, all controllable via the Lefant App:
- Scheduled Cleaning: Set specific times for the robot to clean automatically.
- Zoned Cleaning: Define specific areas on the generated map for the robot to clean.
- Spot Cleaning: Direct the robot to clean a concentrated dirty area.
- Manual Remote Control: Control the robot's movement directly through the app.

2. LDS Navigation and Mapping
The robot uses advanced LDS (Lidar Navigation System) to scan and create a real-time, accurate map of your home. This allows for efficient, row-by-row cleaning paths and precise positioning. The robot can save up to 3 separate maps for multi-floor homes.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of your Lefant M1 Robot Vacuum and Mop. Follow these steps to keep your device in top condition:
1. Emptying the Dustbin
The 520ml dustbin should be emptied after each cleaning cycle, especially if you have pets or a large area to clean. Press the release button to remove the dustbin, open it, and discard the collected debris.
2. Cleaning Filters
The high-efficiency filter should be cleaned regularly (e.g., weekly) by tapping it gently to remove dust. It is recommended to replace the filter every 3-6 months, depending on usage, to maintain optimal suction power.
3. Cleaning Side Brushes and Mop Pad
Inspect the side brushes for tangled hair or debris and clean them as needed. The reusable mop pad is washable and should be cleaned after each mopping session. Disposable mop cloths are also provided for convenience.
