Lift the dust bin lid upward while pressing the separation button on the dust bin. 5. Empty the dust bin and clean it with a cleaning brush or under running water. 6. After cleaning with water, completely dry the dust bin in a well-ventilated area out of the direct sunlight. 7. When reassembling or fitting the cleaned Dust Bin, close the lid and put in the Sponge and EPA Filter. ※ Refer to p.48 for detailed assembly guides. 8. Put the dust bin into the Robot Cleaner and close the dust bin compartment cover. Tip • Operating the unit without Filters fitted to the dust bin can cause a motor malfunction not covered by warranty. • After cleaning the Dust Bin, make sure to assemble the filter and fit it to the Dust Bin. If you initiate cleaning, with no filters fitted to the dust bin or Filter Cover not assembled, a voice message will be announced which says "Please check if the dust bin is installed with the filter." • Always ensure that the dust bin lid is refitted correctly after cleaning the dust bin so that it closes easily and accurately. 53 Cleaning the dust bin filter The Dust Bin Filter consists of a EPA Filter and Sponge Filter. Clean both the EPA and Sponge filters as per the following sequence. 1. Pull the hook on the left of the EPA Filter module on the rear side of Dust Bin to separate the EPA Filter and the sponge. 2. Thoroughly clean out the fine dust particles on the EPA Filter, with a vacuum cleaner or cleaning brush. ※ Do NOT wash the EPA Filter with water. Its suction power will be reduced. 3. Use a cleaning brush to clean the Sponge Filter. If using water to clean it, allow it to dry completely in the shade before refitting. 4. Assemble the EPA and Sponge filters back onto the Filter housing as per the following sequence. ※ Fit the rectangular locator on the EPA Filter into the locating slot of the filter body. ※ Be careful not to incorrectly assemble EPA and Sponge Filter onto the Filter housing. Tip 54 • To preserve the performance of the Robot Cleaner, clean the EPA Filter at least once a week, with a brush or vacuum cleaner. • The EPA and sponge filters must be fitted to the filter housing before refitting the filter to the dust bin. Operating the Robot cleaner without the EPA and sponge filters will cause the suction motor to malfunction. Cleaning the brush The rotating Brush, located on the bottom of Robot Cleaner, helps collect the dust. Clean the Brush as per the following sequence. ※ Before turning over the main unit, lay a soft cloth on the floor and remove the Dust Bin. Otherwise, the main unit can get scratched and dust will fall from the Dust Bin. Turn the Main Power Switch OFF before starting the clean. Put the Robot Cleaner upside down on a soft cloth. Push the Brush all the way into the yellow protrusion. Fit the Fixing Hook (rectangular shape) on the side of the Brush into the slots, with the colors matching. After checking for foreign materials, press down the Fixing Hook and pull it up to separate the brush Cover. By using the cleaning tool, clear hairs and other debris and foreign materials on the Brush and from the 2 smaller jockey wheels. While pushing the Brush, lift the white protrusion part up to separate it from the main unit. Carefully clean the Brush with a vacuum cleaner or scissors. While pushing the Brush to the arrow direction, fit the Fixing Hook (rectangular shape) on the opposite side into the slot. Press down and close the Cover until a 'crack' sound is heard from both sides of Fixing Hook. ※ Be careful not to trap the side brush bristles under the cover when closing it. 55 Cleaning the sensors/charging terminals There are sensors on the Robot Cleaner that detect obstacles, stairways and the home station for charging the battery. In order to maintain the performance of the Robot Cleaner, regularly clean the sensors and charging terminals as follows: 1. Turn off the power switch on the rear side of the Robot Cleaner. Injury can be caused by the activation of the Robot Cleaner if the main power is not turned off. 2. Lay a smooth cloth on the floor, turn over the Robot Cleaner and put it on the cloth. ※ Please make sure to remove the dust bin before rotating the main body. Otherwise, the dust in the dust bin may fall out. 3. Use a smooth cloth or cleaning brush to wipe the dust off each of the 3 cliff sensors, camera sensors and ultrasonic sensors and the charging terminal as described below. Ultrasonic sensors Upper camera sensor Obstacle detecting sensor window Detecting sensors of home station & Receiving sensors of remote controller Cliff detection sensors Charging terminals Bottom camera sensor Charging terminals Lens Tip 56 • Do not clean the Robot Cleaner by directly spraying it with water, thinners, solvents, benzene, or any other liquids. • Call the service center if the sensor or charging terminal is damaged. Sensor and terminal damage can cause the product to malfunction. • To clean the sensor/charging terminals, use the cleaning brush. Cleaning the side brush Foreign objects/materials such as hair can easily adhere to the side brush. Remove such materials at least once a week. If excessive amounts of foreign materials are stuck to the brush, there is the risk of damage to the brushes. If the floor is rough or frequently cleaned, the side brushes may bend or become deformed. In this case, use the following method to straighten the side brush. 1. The following procedure is helpful in restoring deformed brushes. 2. Turn off the power by switching the main switch off on the rear off the unit. 3. Place the Robot Cleaner at the end of a table to make cleaning the side brush easier. Make sure that the Robot Cleaner is not in danger of falling. 4. Soak the side brush in warm to hot water. 5. Press down on the side brush for about ten seconds so that it is completely submerged in the water. 6. Slowly wipe the side brush by sliding it through your hand. 7.
