Cleaning Cycle
The Lydsto P1 MINI operates for approximately 60 minutes on a full charge. It utilizes a 250µm high-precision filtration system to intercept particulate matter, leaves, stones, and other debris. Front and rear scrapers provide synchronous cleaning, efficiently removing dirt from the pool bottom.

The auto-steering technology ensures comprehensive coverage. When the robot encounters a wall, it automatically changes its direction to continue cleaning.

Cleaning the Filter
- After each use, remove the top cover of the cleaner by unlatching the fasteners.
- Carefully lift out the filter basket.
- Rinse the filter basket thoroughly with a hose to remove all collected debris.
- Reassemble the filter basket and top cover, ensuring all fasteners are securely latched.

4. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaner does not start. | Low battery or not powered on. | Ensure the unit is fully charged. Press the power button only after the unit is fully submerged in water. |
| Poor cleaning performance. | Clogged filter or debris in suction ports. | Clean the filter basket thoroughly. Check and clear any obstructions from the suction ports. |
| Cleaner gets stuck frequently. | Uneven pool bottom (wrinkles) or large obstacles. | The cleaner is designed for flat-bottomed pools. Manually assist if it gets stuck on wrinkles. Remove large obstacles from the pool. |
| Cleaner stops prematurely. | Battery depleted. | Recharge the unit. A full charge provides approximately 60 minutes of operation. |
