Retrieving the Cleaner
Once the cleaning cycle is complete or the battery is low, the cleaner will typically move to the edge of the pool. Use the floating line or carefully pull the cleaner out of the water using its handle. Avoid pulling it out by the power cord (if applicable) or other delicate parts.
Maintenance
Filter Cleaning
Regular cleaning of the filter basket and filters is crucial for maintaining optimal cleaning performance.
- Remove the cleaner from the pool and open the filter compartment.
- Extract the filter basket.
- Rinse the filter basket and filters thoroughly with a garden hose. For the 3-micron ultrafine filter, handle with care as the fibers can be delicate.
- Ensure all debris is removed before reinserting the filters and closing the compartment.
General Cleaning and Storage
- Wipe down the exterior of the cleaner with a soft cloth after each use.
- Store the cleaner in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Ensure the battery is charged periodically during long storage periods to maintain battery health.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaner does not turn on. | Low battery; power button not pressed correctly. | Charge the cleaner fully. Ensure the power button is pressed firmly. |
| Poor cleaning performance / Not picking up fine debris. | Clogged filter; incorrect filter type for debris; worn brushes. | Clean the filter basket and filters thoroughly. Ensure the 3-micron ultrafine filter is used for fine debris. Inspect and replace brushes if worn. |
| Cleaner gets stuck or moves erratically. | Obstruction; air trapped inside; software glitch. | Remove any large obstructions. Gently shake the cleaner to release trapped air. If using the app, check for and apply any available OTA updates. Try restarting the cleaner. |
| Cleaner does not climb walls effectively. | Low battery; dirty brushes/tracks; water chemistry imbalance. | Ensure the battery is fully charged. Clean the caterpillar tracks and brushes. Check pool water chemistry (e.g., calcium hardness, pH). |
