Cleaning Modes:
The Kobot® can perform with different cleaning options and various movement
patterns to ensure proper cleaning and room coverage.
The Kobot® has 2 buttons for different cleaning options :
Vacuum Plus -Vacuum and even Mop, should you choose to attach the cleaning pad,
all at the same time. The robotic vacuum will begin turning debris into its bin
compartment. ABlue LED light will indicate this mode.
Mop Only - Eliminates use of the motor, saving the battery charge or longer mopping
times. You must apply the cleaning attachment pad with a cleaning sheet. A Green LED
light will indicate this mode.
Carpet - When using on a carpet, please remove the “cleaning pad attachment and side
brushes” to free up movement and save on battery power.
When the battery power is low, the left LED shines RED.
When the battery is charging, the left LED blinks RED.
When the battery power is full, all LED lights will turn off.
Simply press the preferred mode button, a short musical tone will sound and the Kobot®
will begin to move and start cleaning.
As the Kobot® encounters chair legs, furniture and other obstacles, it stops,
changes direction and then continues with its cleaning pattern. It will periodically
return to areas it skipped and continue on.
Drop offs - When the unit is powered on, you'll notice (3) beams of red lights coming
from the bottom of the unit. Depending on the Floor Type Control Switch, these
digitally coded light source sensors will detect stairs or other drop offs. The RV317
will back up, maneuver away and get back to cleaning.
The Kobot® will automatically perform various movement patterns during its
cleaning process and will change to different movement patterns when needed to
ensure room coverage.
