This document describes the ROB 4600 Robot Vacuum Cleaner, a device designed for automated floor cleaning. It functions as a robot aspirateur et laveur de sol, a Saug-Wisch-Roboter, and an Aspirapolvere e lavapavimenti robot, indicating its capability for both vacuuming and mopping.
Function Description
The ROB 4600 is a versatile robot vacuum cleaner that can operate in various cleaning modes:
- Systematic Mode: For optimal room cleaning, the appliance uses a gyroscope-controlled navigation system, cleaning in a zigzag pattern if room conditions allow.
- Spot Mode: The appliance moves from the center of a designated area in an ever-widening circle to clean a specific spot.
- Corner Mode: Placed against a wall, the appliance moves along the walls to clean corners and edges.
- Wiping Function: The device can be used for wet cleaning by attaching a water tank with a cleaning fleece. It's crucial to start the appliance immediately after attaching the water tank to prevent damage to the floor from dripping water.
- Scheduled Cleaning: Users can set a schedule for the appliance to switch on at a certain time on selected days. This feature should not be used with the mopping function to avoid water damage to floor coverings.
The appliance automatically switches to a different cleaning mode if it detects that another mode would achieve a better cleaning effect. It also automatically returns to the charging station when the battery capacity drops to about 15% or when the user presses the designated button.
