Maytronics Liberty Premium 8 robotic pool cleaner User Instructions
Below you will find brief information for robotic pool cleaner Liberty Premium 8. The Liberty Premium 8 is a cordless, battery-powered robotic pool cleaner designed to clean any residential pool up to 15m (50ft) in length. It is particularly suited for pools with irregular shapes and/or in-pool features, such as bridges, fountains, pillars, and other obstacles that may hinder the free movement of a power cable. Your Liberty Premium 8 will automatically shut down at the end of the cleaning cycle, or when the battery capacity drops below the lowest allowable level. When the robot has finished its cycle, it will move to a location on the pool wall, making it easier for you to remove it from the pool. You can use the remote control to change the cleaning cycle and other settings, including the delay time, cleaning mode, and duration of the cleaning cycle. You can also use the remote control to steer the robot to a more accessible location if it stops in an inaccessible spot in the pool.
