Functionality
The vacuum cleaner uses a side brush and a specially designed turbo brush to perform dry cleaning. In addition to the bristles, it has rubber plates located in a V-shape, which are good at removing small debris, hair, and wool. It also makes it easier to clean at the end of the job.
All debris falls into a large dust compartment, where, with the help of two filters, the air blown out is purified. The vacuum cleaner can operate in the following modes:
- Auto. Cleans randomly moving around the room. He himself changes and coordinates his movements, taking into account obstacles.
- Local. Applies specifically to the contaminated area. It moves in a spiral, pedantically dealing only with this area.
- Along the perimeter. Moves only near walls and in corners.
- Planned. The vacuum cleaner leaves the base on its own at the appointed time and does the cleaning on its own.
- Manual. The user activates the activation from the remote control and controls the trajectory himself, then sends it to the station.
To wipe the floor with a damp cloth, replace the dust container with a container filled with water. A napkin is fixed to the bottom, onto which water flows independently, keeping it moist during the wiping process.
