3.4 Charging
CAUTION:
Please fully charge the device before using it to clean the pool. Do not charge the device in direct sunlight.
It's advised that a minimum distance of 3.5m (11.5 ft) separates your pool and charging location. For the best results, your charging location should have Wi-Fi coverage, as this will expedite OTA updates.
Charging Options:

- Connect the charger's cable to the charging port on the dock, and plug the adapter into any available outlet. Place the device onto the charging dock. The LED status indicator on the device will pulse while charging and turn solid green when fully charged.
3.5 Cleaning Process
- Press and hold [Power Button] for 2 seconds to turn on/off the device.
- Press [Mode Button] briefly to cycle through and select one of the four preprogrammed cleaning modes: Hero Mode, Floor Mode, Floor + Wall Mode, and Skimming Mode. Additional modes are available in the Aiper App.
Before submerging the device into the water, place the device on a horizontal surface for 5 seconds. After being submerged for a short period, the device will initiate the selected mode's cleaning task.
3. When the device is initially submerged, selecting a mode including pool floor cleaning will trigger the mapping process. The device will clean along the pool's floor contour to create an underwater map. After a successful mapping, there's no need to do mapping again for the same pool. However, before each cleaning, the device need to briefly move around the floor to relocate.
After the mapping is done, the device will automatically recognize the pool's shape and initiate the S-shaped cleaning route when cleaning the pool floor. Once cleaning is finished, the device will return to the missed areas.
4. The details of each cleaning mode are described below:
- Hero Mode: The device will clean the pool floor, pool walls, and water surface sequentially. While cleaning the walls, it will clean the waterline at the same time.
- Floor Mode: The device will clean the pool floor utilizing a S-shaped route, without climbing or cleaning pool walls.
- Floor + Wall Mode: The device will clean the pool floor and pool walls sequentially, while cleaning the walls, it will clean the waterline at the same time.
- Skimming Mode: The device will clean the pool's water surface for 3 hours.
Note: The device's cleaning route may be updated with firmware versions. For the most accurate information, please refer to the device's actual performance or the latest official guidance.
Cleaning Intensity Selection
- ECO: Energy-saving mode. In this mode, the device will save energy, extending the device's cleaning time. Cleaning performance is not affected and can still clean debris such as sand, leaves, insects, etc.
- AUTO: Adaptive mode. In this mode, the device will intelligently regulate the output and operation speed of the water pump according to the distribution of debris on the pool floor to get the balance of cleaning ability and battery life.
- MAX: High-performance mode. In this mode, the water pump will work continuously at high power, providing great cleaning capability.
5. When the device completes a cleaning task, it will automatically ascend to the water's surface near the point of entry.
If, for any reason, the device doesn't ascend to the water's surface, attach the included hook to any standard telescopic pool pole (not included) to extend the reach. Hook and lift the device out of the pool.
6. Allow the device to drain any stored water before storing or charging the device.
4 Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning the Filter Box
- Place the device on a flat surface and lift the top shell.
- Remove the filter box by lifting its handle.
- Press the latch on the bottom of the filter box and lift the top handle to open it.
- Empty, rinse and dry the filter box.
- For a thorough cleaning of the filter box, press the latch to remove the filter for cleaning.
- After drying, reinstall the filter and filter box into the device.
Notes:
- After each cleaning task, promptly remove the device from the pool and clean the filter box immediately. Avoid leaving the device in the pool for extended periods.
- Drying the filter and filter box after each cleaning is not required and is recommended solely to prevent moisture-related odors.
- When drying or storing your device, including the replaceable MicroMesh™ ultra-fine filter and filter box, it's recommended to store them in a well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight.
- The replaceable MicroMesh™ ultra-fine filter traps particles as small as 3–10µm, such as silt and some algae. When visible debris is minimal (e.g., stones, leaves, sand, debris, hair) and the water appears cloudy or some algae, it is recommended to use the replaceable MicroMesh™ ultra-fine filter. If there is a significant amount of visible debris, it is recommended to use an ordinary filter.
- It is advisable to use a high-pressure water gun to clean the filter and the filter box to ensure thorough cleaning.
- After several uses, the surface of the replaceable MicroMesh™ ultra-fine filter may show signs of wear, which does not impact its performance.
- The replaceable MicroMesh™ ultra-fine filter is a consumable item and should be replaced every 30 uses to maintain effective filtration.
