Operating Your Robot Vacuum

The NARWAL Freo Z Ultra offers intelligent cleaning modes and features for optimal performance.

Cleaning Modes

  • Vacuum Only: For dry debris and dust. The 12,000Pa suction effectively lifts dirt from carpets and hard floors.
  • Mop Only: For wet spills and stains. Dual mops apply 1.2 kg of downward force and scrub at 180 RPM.
  • Vacuum & Mop: Combines both functions for a thorough clean. The robot intelligently identifies wet and dry messes to deploy the optimal cleaning mode.

Carpet Handling

The robot can detect carpets and automatically lift its mops by 12mm (0.67 inches) to prevent wetting while boosting suction for deep carpet cleaning. It avoids long-pile carpets to prevent entanglement.

App and Voice Control

Manage your cleaning preferences, schedule cleanings, and define no-go zones through the intuitive NARWAL app. The robot also supports voice commands via Alexa, Siri, or Google Home for convenient control.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your NARWAL Freo Z Ultra.

Base Station Maintenance

  • Self-Emptying: The base station automatically empties the robot's dustbin into a 2.5L dustbag, providing up to 120 days of maintenance-free dust disposal.
  • Mop Washing and Drying: The base station cleans the mop pads with hot water (104°F to 140°F, finishing at 167°F for hygiene) and then self-dries them to prevent odors and mildew.
  • Water Tank Management: Regularly empty the dirty water tank and refill the clean water tank. The app will notify you when these actions are required.
  • Detergent Replacement: Replace the floor detergent cartridge when empty.

Robot Vacuum Maintenance

  • Brush Cleaning: The certified tangle-free brush minimizes hair entanglement, but occasional inspection and cleaning are recommended.
  • Sensor Cleaning: Wipe the robot's sensors and charging contacts with a dry cloth periodically to ensure proper navigation and charging.
  • Dustbin Filter: Replace the dust bin filter as needed to maintain suction performance.
