Operation
1. Cleaning Modes

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your BOTLUXE PC20, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Robot not operating: Ensure the battery is fully charged. Check if the power button is pressed correctly.
- Poor cleaning performance: Clean the filter basket thoroughly. Ensure there are no large obstructions preventing the robot's movement or suction.
- Robot not climbing walls: Check the water level and ensure the pool surface is not excessively slippery with algae. Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged.
- Temperature Alarm: The optimal operating temperature for the device is between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F). Temperatures that are too low may trigger a protection alarm. It is recommended to use the device when the water temperature is above 5°C.
