- Auto Water Refilling: The station refills the robot's water tank from its 4L reservoir, providing coverage for up to 3552 sqft.
- Mop Self-Washing and Drying: The station thoroughly washes the mopping pads and then dries them to prevent odors and mildew, ensuring they are ready for the next cleaning cycle.
5.2 Manual Cleaning of Components
Periodically inspect and clean the following components:
- Main Brush: Remove hair and debris tangled around the main brush.
- Side Brush: Check for any obstructions and clean if necessary.
- Filters: Tap out dust from the filter or rinse if washable (refer to specific instructions in the app).
- Sensors: Wipe all sensors on the robot and docking station with a clean, dry cloth.
