5. Setup Guide
- Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.
- Charging Station Placement: Place the auto-empty dust bin station against a wall in an open area. Ensure at least 0.5 meters (1.6 feet) of clear space on either side and 1.5 meters (5 feet) in front of the station for optimal robot navigation. Connect the power cord to the station and plug it into a power outlet.
- Initial Charge: Place the robotic vacuum cleaner onto the charging contacts of the auto-empty station. Ensure it is properly docked. Allow the robot to fully charge before first use (approximately 3 hours). The indicator light on the robot will change when fully charged.
- App Installation: Download the "Smart Life" app from your device's app store (available on iOS and Android).
- Pairing: Open the Smart Life app and follow the on-screen instructions to register an account and add your robotic vacuum cleaner. This process will typically involve connecting the robot to your home Wi-Fi network and enabling remote control and mapping features.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1. First Use and Home Mapping
For the first cleaning cycle, it is recommended to allow the robot to complete a full mapping run without significant obstacles. This creates a detailed and accurate map of your home, which is crucial for efficient future cleaning and advanced features like zone cleaning. LiDAR 3.0 technology enables quick home mapping, typically within 5 minutes for standard homes.

6.2. Cleaning Modes
The vacuum cleaner offers various cleaning modes, accessible via the Smart Life app or physical buttons on the robot:
- Auto Clean: The robot intelligently cleans the entire mapped area, adjusting suction as needed.
- Spot Clean: Focuses on a specific dirty area, cleaning in a spiral pattern.
- Edge Clean: Cleans along walls and corners, ensuring thorough coverage of room perimeters.
- Max Mode: Provides 7000Pa HyperSuction for deep cleaning of heavily soiled areas.
- Quiet Mode: Operates with reduced noise for undisturbed cleaning, suitable for use during quiet hours.

6.3. Wet Mopping
To enable wet mopping, attach the mopping cloth to the designated mopping pad and fill the water tank (if applicable, refer to the specific water tank instructions in your product's quick start guide). The 3S Mopping Technology allows for customizable water flow levels suitable for various hard floor types, including tiles, marble, and wooden floors.

6.4. Smart App and Voice Control
Use the Smart Life app to schedule cleaning times, select specific rooms or zones for cleaning, adjust suction power, and monitor cleaning progress in real-time. For hands-free operation, link your device to Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant and use simple voice commands to start, stop, or schedule cleaning tasks.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your robotic vacuum cleaner.
7.1. Auto-Empty Dust Bin Maintenance
The 2.5L dust bag in the auto-empty station typically requires replacement every 40 days, depending on usage frequency and debris volume. Monitor the indicator on the station for bag full alerts. Follow the station's instructions for safe and hygienic bag replacement.
7.2. Robot Dust Bin and Filter Cleaning
Although the robot self-empties, periodically check and clean the internal dust bin and the HEPA H13 grade filter to maintain optimal suction performance. Tap out debris from the filter. If the filter is washable, rinse it with water and allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
7.3. Brush Cleaning
Regularly remove hair and debris from the main brush and side brushes. Use the cleaning tool provided (if any) to cut and remove tangled hair and fibers. Ensure brushes spin freely after cleaning.
7.4. Sensor Cleaning
Wipe the anti-collision and anti-drop sensors located on the robot's bumper and underside with a clean, dry cloth. Clean sensors ensure proper navigation and prevent the robot from falling down stairs or colliding with furniture.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Robot not charging | Not properly docked; power cord loose; charging contacts dirty. | Ensure robot is correctly aligned with charging contacts; check power cord connection; clean charging contacts on both robot and station. |
| Reduced suction power | Dust bin full; filter clogged; brushes tangled; suction inlet blocked. | Empty dust bin; clean/replace filter; clean main and side brushes; check and clear suction inlet. |
| Robot gets stuck frequently | Sensors dirty; obstacles in path; uneven surfaces. | Clean sensors; clear cables, rugs, and small objects from cleaning area; ensure robot can navigate floor transitions. |
| App connection issues | Wi-Fi signal weak; incorrect pairing; router settings. | Ensure strong 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal; re-pair device following app instructions; check router settings (e.g., firewall). |
| Mopping not effective | Mopping cloth dry; water tank empty/clogged; cloth dirty. | Dampen mopping cloth before use; refill water tank; clean mopping cloth; check for clogs in water dispenser. |
