Skimmi Robotic Pool Skimmer | User Instructions
Robot status and indications
The robot has various sensors and indicators to help you properly set it and to know that
everything is working as expected.
1.
The battery indicator shows how much energy the battery has stored. If the battery level is
low, Skimmi hibernates to preserve battery life. If it is between 25-100, it works as usual. When
it is full, the charge from the solar panel bypasses the battery and powers the motors directly
without finding direct sunlight and stopping for Smart Solar Recharge breaks. This is done to
preserve battery life and provide more work time.
2.
The Bluetooth® icon shows the strength of the connection.
3.
The charging/lightning bolt shows how many watts the sun is currently charging the robot.
4.
The temperature indicator shows the water temperature.
5. The robot status line describes what the robot is doing or if there is an error that needs to be
taken care of, such as something stuck in one of the wheels.
SETTINGS
Tap “Settings” in the app home screen to change the default settings.
DEVICE SETTINGS
While the default settings are ideal for most situations, you can adjust these settings according
to your needs.
• Auto Start - Turn ON to automatically activate the robot when inserting the Debris Tray until it
snaps into place. Note that if you turn Auto Start ON, you should use the clips that came with
the tray when storing, so that it stays OFF and doesn’t wear the batteries out in storage.
• Speed - You can change it from “Auto”, to “Slow” or “Fast”. “Auto” is default and it slows the
Skimmi at night so that it is quieter. The “Fast” setting remains fast day and night, so you may
notice the noise more when everything is quiet.
• Water Edge Cleaning - Water Edge Cleaning creates a micro-current to pull debris from the edge
and scoop it up. Skimmi is set by default to Eco, where it cleans every 3rd wall it gets to. This
way it reduces battery consumption while cleaning all of the walls during the day, usually within
an hour or two.
• Water Clarity - If the water isn't clear, it affects the sensors' ability to accurately detect
obstacles. Cloudy water can cause Skimmi to turn frequently or even turn in circles. Set to
“Cloudy” or “Murky” if the water is murky so that the sensors won't get confused.
• Night Light - The robot has fun accent lighting when working at night. You can leave it on
“Constant”, or change to “Flashing”, when it “Detects” an object/wall, or “OFF”.
• Debris Washing - Turn OFF if you don't want the robot to remove debris near the wall. If ON, it
will splash water on the walls during Water Edge Cleaning to remove debris.
• Smart Detect - Choose between "Avoid Hose and cable" or "Leaves search".
• Distance to Edge - Set your optimal response distance to the edge of your pool so that Skimmi
doesn’t turn too far from the edge or bump into it frequently.
• Pool Type - Set by default for regular, clear pools. If changed to “Natural”, it will protect plants
and other elements on the pond’s edge. It won't clean the water’s edge in “Natural” mode.
