5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your PoolPure PRS100A, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Unit does not turn on or charge. | Battery depleted; charging cable not connected properly; faulty charger/battery. | Ensure charging cable is securely connected. Allow sufficient time for charging (2.5-3 hours). If issues persist, contact customer support. |
| Unit moves in circles or does not navigate effectively. | Obstruction detected; sensors are dirty; propeller malfunction. | Check for any large debris obstructing the unit. Clean the sensors. Inspect propellers for damage or entanglement. Use remote control to manually steer if automatic navigation is impaired. |
| Ineffective debris collection. | Filter basket is full; unit operating at incorrect speed; water conditions. | Empty and clean the filter basket. Adjust the cleaning speed using the remote control (e.g., use 'Low speed' for deep cleaning). Ensure the unit is not operating in excessively turbulent water. |
| Remote control not responding. | Remote battery low; out of range; interference. | Replace remote control batteries. Ensure you are within the 50m/164ft operating range. Reduce potential interference from other electronic devices. |
