Follow these steps to prepare your robot for its first use.
- Attach Cleaning Pads: Securely attach the provided cleaning pads to the designated areas on the bottom of the robot. Ensure they are clean and properly aligned.
- Fill Water Tank: Open the water tank cap and carefully fill the 100 ml tank with clean water or a suitable window cleaning solution. Close the cap tightly to prevent leakage.

Ensure there is enough slack for the robot to move but not so much that it could hit the ground if it detaches.
