Important Safety Instructions
Declaration of Conformity
•
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation. The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by
unauthorized modifications or changes to this equipment. Such modifications or changes
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

Power Leaf OFF and remove him from a power source when you are not using him
and before conducting maintenance.
Leaf is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless under the close
supervision of a person responsible for their safety.
Leaks from the battery cells can occur under extreme usage or temperature
conditions. If the liquid gets on the skin, wash quickly with water. If the liquid gets into
the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes, and
seek medical attention.
Leaf is composed of electronic components that in rare and unintended cases can
cause hazards of heating, fire, and other malfunctions. Furthermore, because Leaf is
capable of autonomous movement, his use poses the risk of collision with property,
pets, and persons. Unintended removal of articles — such as small valuables,wires,
jewelry, or hair of persons or pets lying on the floor — may also occur.
If Leaf or his charging station has been damaged in any way, do not operate them.
Contact our support team for further assistance.
Do not handle Leaf or the charging station with wet hands; use only on dry surfaces.
Do not pull or carry the charging station by the cord, close a door on the cord, or pull
the cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
To unplug the cord, grasp the plug, not the cord.
Do not expose Leaf to direct sun light or infrared light.
Do not let Leaf drop.
For your safety, do not insert tools, fingers, or other items into Leaf or disassemble
him.
Do not attempt to open the charging station. Repairs on the station should only be
carried out by our qualified technicians.
With the exception of the mop attachment, do not immerse any part of Leaf into
water or other liquids.
Do not mutilate or incinerate the battery, as it will explode at high temperatures.
Do not use Leaf outdoors.
Do not store Leaf in a car. Always follow storage instructions in this manual.
Do not expose Leaf or his charging station to temperatures higher than 113° F
(45° C), moisture, or humidity.
Do not dispose of Leaf’s battery in fire. Old batteries should be recycled safely through
your local recycler.
Do not let Leaf pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,
matches, or hot ashes.
Only use Leaf’s own adaptor to charge him. Do not use a broken or damaged adapter.
Do not let Leaf pick inflammable items, chemicals, or other out of ordinary items.
If Leaf’s vacuum is jammed remove the obstacle completely before reusing him.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Who is Leaf
Leaf’s First Clean
Leaf is an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner, at your service! Connect Leaf to Wi-Fi and use the bObsweep app to schedule a customized
cleaning plan for Leaf to clean your home, your way.
Before Starting
Remove the protective pieces from Leaf’s bumper and charging station.
Leaf’s Cleaning Behavior
Leaf’s cleaning pattern may look quite different from the way a
human would clean: he may spin in a gradually widening circle,
follow along walls, or zigzag across a small area. Sometimes he may
seem to be ignoring some spaces or spending too much time on
others — but don’t worry! Leaf will efficiently clean your home within
the course of a full cycle — just check his dustbin for the evidence!
R
Install Leaf’s side brushes to help him reach the corners and edges
of rooms. Place the left (L) and right (R) side brush over the empty
socket on Leaf. Press down to lock onto Leaf.
It is best to let Leaf work in his own way, even if his movements
appear odd. Moving him around, manipulating his movements, or
picking him up may confuse him and disrupt his cycle.
Leaf’s Challenges
Unique Furniture
Inclines
Step 2: Power Leaf ON
Leaf is designed to maneuver around furniture of most shapes and
sizes, but certain configurations may confuse him temporarily. Leaf
may sometimes find it difficult to clean under chairs with narrow legs,
or furniture that is too low for his bumper sensors to detect.
Sometimes Leaf will attempt to drive up angled surfaces and get
stuck for a few minutes before deciding to clean somewhere else.
This is because Leaf wants to cover every spot in your home and will
try his hardest to overcome any obstacle!
Press and hold the Power Button on Leaf until the power indicator
Specialty furniture, such as desk chairs with wheels or stools with circular bases, may also confuse him for a moment — but don’t worry,
Leaf usually finds his way around with time.
As long as Leaf does not indicate on his screen that there is a problem,
let him find his own way around your home and continue cleaning. Take
note of the areas Leaf finds the most challenging, and if possible spread
or adjust some of your furniture accordingly.
