Introduction

Components

System overview The robotic cleaner sweeps the pool floor and walls collecting dirt and debris in its internal filters. This user manual explains how to operate the robotic cleaner, including cleaning, maintenance and storage procedures. Note: This manual reviews several different models with variations.
Robotic cleaner operation After the robotic cleaner is placed in the pool and activated, it operates according to its program. It moves along the floor and walls of the pool, covering the entire area of the pool. When it has finished its program, it remains inactive on the pool floor. Power will automatically shut off. Note: It’s not recommended to stop the pool cleaner prior cycle end.
Note: Wall climbing is an optional feature. When the wall climbing feature is enabled, the robotic cleaner climbs the wall at intervals according to its internal program (only D500 & D600). Its ability to climb over stairs in swimming pool is subject to stair geometry and material.
Operating conditions The robotic cleaner is intended for use in residential swimming pools only in the following conditions: (1) Recommended water temperature 22°C-32°C (72°F-90°F). (2) Water pH : 7.2 – 7.6 (3) Chlorine level: pool is maintained according to the pool manufacturer’s instructions. (Recommended Chlorine level: 2-4 ppm) Note: Failure to maintain the pool according to the recommended operating conditions could prevent the robotic cleaner from functioning properly.

Operation
Starting the Robotic Cleaner Connect the power supply to the wall socket. The on/off button is lit and the robotic cleaner starts its cleaning program. If the power and control unit is already connected to the AC socket, the on/off button flashes to indicate that the robotic cleaner is in standby mode. Press the Operation button. The on/off button turns on and the robotic cleaner starts the cleaning program. Note: When the Full Filter Indicator light on (optional in some models.) the filters must be cleaned before replacing the unit in the pool.
Cleaning Cycle During the cleaning cycle, the cleaner: (1) moves across the pool floor picking up dirt and debris. (2) Changes direction and rotates automatically according to the selected program. (3) Climbs the pool walls every few minutes, as set in its internal program. Note: The robotic cleaner might occasionally stop moving for a few seconds. This is part of normal operation, not a malfunction.
Stopping robotic cleaner operation The robotic cleaner moves automatically to ‘standby’ after every cleaning cycle and the on/off button starts flashing. To stop the cleaner operation during a cleaning cycle, press the operation button once. The on/off button starts flushing and the cleaner is in standby mode.
