Plate align correctly on to the fixing grooves
on the underside of the cleaner.
Tip
• To avoid odors, wash any foreign material or dust off the mop after cleaning is complete.
• To avoid staining floors, do not use the ultra microfiber mop to clean when dirt is mixed with
liquids such as coffee or ink.
• To avoid damage to carpets from the Velcro or dirt transfer from the mop, do not clean the
carpet while the mop plate or mop is attached.
• Keep the ultra microfiber mop dry. Do not use it on wet surfaces.
If there is moisture, it can interfere with the navigation.
• Smart Diagnosis feature is not available, when the Mop Plate is attached.

clean.
※ The navigating function will be activated after the
Robot Cleaner adequately recognizes the cleaning
environment.
Change location
Manual Relocation.
1. Locate the Robot Cleaner near the location where
it was originally moved from.
※ The location search is more effective when the
Robot Cleaner is closer to the location where it
was moved from.
※ If it is moved from its original cleaning position
by more than 1 m, it becomes difficult for
the Robot Cleaner to search for it's previous
location.
When the location search
function is activated, the
