Q: What kind of swimming pool is suitable?
A: In-ground pools up to 2150 sq. ft.

Q: Why doesn't the cleaner respond after turning on?
A: The battery may be depleted from long-term storage. Charge the device; the light will be solid red while charging.

A2: Remove the cartridge from the basket to allow sufficient power for wall climbing.
A3: Check for debris in the filter basket. Remove and clean the basket.

Q: Why does the cleaner fall down when cleaning the waterline instead of moving down the wall?
A: If the pool has an infinity edge or a protruding edge near the waterline, the cleaner may not fit perfectly and could fall.

Q: Why does the cleaner sit at the bottom of the pool or move slowly?
