4. Mop The Floor: Start any cleaning mode. The robot will perform mopping.

Electrowall

The Electrowall creates an invisible barrier that the V8 Plus will not cross, allowing you to confine it to a specific room or area.

• Install battery first, then turn it on.
• Place the Electrowall outside the doorway you wish to block, ensuring the signal logo faces forward towards the opening.
• Turn off the Electrowall after each use.

TIPS:

• Ensure the robot is placed within the designated "working area" indicated by stickers on the Electrowall.

Regular Maintenance

Please turn off the robot and unplug the charging dock when cleaning the robot and its accessories.

Side Brush and Suction Inlet Cleaning

Clean the side brush and suction inlet when they are dirty. Replace them if they become damaged.

Dustbin and Filter Cleaning

Clean the dustbin and filter after each use as instructed:

1. Remove the dustbin and check the suction inlet for debris. Clean as needed.
2. The primary filter is replaceable and can be washed with water. Wash it after 15-30 days of use and dry it in a cool, well-ventilated place. Do not squeeze it.
3. The High Performance Filter cannot be cleaned with water. To prolong its life, shake the filter to clean it.

Visual guides show the steps for cleaning the dustbin and filters.

Cleaning of Water Tank Components

1. Clean The Mop Cloth: After mopping, remove the water tank components and the mop cloth. Rinse and air dry the mop cloth.
2. Clean The Water Tank: After mopping, remove the mop cloth and components. Drain any remaining water from the tank. Dry the water tank by hand and then air dry it.

Sensors and Charging Pins Cleaning

Use a cleaning tool or soft cloth to clean the sensors and charging pins as illustrated. Ensure charging pins are cleaned regularly if contaminated.

Visual guides show the cleaning of sensors and charging pins.

Nose Wheel Cleaning

Ensure the nose wheel housing is free of debris, as this can affect cleaning performance. Pull the wheel up and out vertically to clean the wheel, wheel holder, and housing.

A visual guide shows how to remove and clean the nose wheel.
