RECHARGING
BATTERY
1. To
ensure the
best
performance of the rechargeable battery and lengthen
its
life
span,
the
battery
is
best
used
after it is fully
charged
for
8
hours
every
time.
2. The
charging
function
will
be
cut
off
automatically
for
continuously
charging
8
hours.
Before
charging,
make
sure
the
battery
is
correctly
installed
and
the
power
switch
has
been
turned
to
“OFF”
position.
3. To
do
recharge,
plug
one
end
of
the
d.
c.
adaptor
into
the
jack
on
the
RC
320A
and
the
other
end
into
the
AC
power
outlet
to
charge.
4. When
charging,
the
“CHARGE”
LED
indication
lamp
on
the
control
panel
of
RC
320A
(as
below
will
flash
green,
and
it
will
stay

ADJUSTMENT
OF
ANTI-CLIFF
SENSORS
If
the
distance between
the
stair and the ground is shorter than usual (around 2-3cm),
you can
adjust
the windows of both
"Anti-cliff"
sensors
from
"2"
or
"1"
or
"0"
position
to
prevent
the
cleaner
from
falling
down
stairs.
You can test
it
before
starting
to
clean.
*
NOTE:
If
the
color
of
the
floor
is
dark
(e.g.
Black),
it
means
the
reflectivity
of
the
floor
will confuse
RC
320A
and it might move backward
continuously.
Under
this
circumstance,
open
the
window
position
to
the
max (’2’
or
‘3’
positions).

CLEANING
AND
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Intake
After
repeated
use,
dirt
and
dust
can
accumulate
around
the
intake
of
the
RC
320A
and the
working
efficiency
can
be
reduced.
To
ensure
the
best
efficiency
and
constant
airflow,
the
intake
should
be
cleaned
periodically.
Intake
Cleaning
Side
Brush
1.
Pull up the brushes and remove any hair as shown in Fig.
2.
The side brushes can be rinsed and if they become crooked, you can soak
them in hot water so they return to their original shape.
3. After
being
used
for
a
period
of
time,
the
brush
should
be
replaced
for
more
efficiency.
4. The
side
brush
can
be
rinsed.
If
it becomes
crooked,
you
can
scald
them
in
hot
water
to
make
them
recover
to
original
shape.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
(FAQs)
A. Battery
and
Charging
1.
How
long
does
it
take
to
fully charge the robot?
It
takes
about eight
hours
to
fully
charge
the
robot.
2.
Why
does
it take
so
long
to charge up the battery?
The
robot
uses
a
slow
charging
technology
which
could
keep
up
the
work
performance
and
li
span
of
the
rechargeable
batteries
better.
3.
Why
is
the green
lamp
still blinking after 8 hours of charging?
As
the
recharge
function
relies
on
the
timer
inside
the
robot,
in
case
the
charging
power
input
has
been
interrupted
during
the
recharge,
the
timer
will
re-start
counting
(so
the
power
indication
lamp
will
still
be
blinking
in
green.)
It
will
stop
again
after
8
hours
of
uninterrupted
charging.
4.
Would
I
get electric
shock
if I touch the robot when it is recharging?
NO.
The
output
of
the
contact
points
is
only
19V.
It
is
safe for
humans and pets.
5.
Do
I
need
to turn
off
the
robot before charging it?
YES.
Please
turn
off
the
robot
before
recharging,
otherwise
it
could
not
be
recharged
properly.
6.
Would
the
robot
be
overcharged or get burnt if it is connected to the
adaptor
all
the time?
NO.
The
recharge
will
stop
automatically
after
8
hours.
However,
if
you
expect
a
longer
period
of
idleness,
it
is
recommended
to
unplug
the
adaptor.
7.
What
would happen
if
I
start using the robot before it gets fully charged?
It
will
still
work
until
the
voltage
drops
to
a
certain
level
and
stop
on
the
floor.
The
working
time
w
ould
be
shorter
than
normal.
8.
How
long
is the
battery
life? When do I need to replace with new batteries?
Lifespan
of
Ni-MH
batteries
is
usually
around
9-12
months
(it
will
also
depend
on the
usage
and
storage
condition).
When
the
batteries
start
to
age,
the
working
time
will
drop
gradually.
When
the
working
time
drops
to
a
level
that
the
robot
can not
clean
up
your
home
effectively
(you
still
find
obvious
dirt
on
floor
after
the
cleaning
program)
you need to replace
with
new
batteries.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
(FAQs)
B.
Applications
1.
Why
is
the
suction
power
of this robot so low
?
Can it clean my floor effectively
?
SURE!
The
robot
is
designed
to
handle
everyday
dirt
in
our
home,
which
includes
dust,
hair,
dead
skin,
pet
hair,
food
crumbs,
etc.
All
these
are
very
light
in
weight
but it
is
tedious
for
us
to
clean
by
ourselves
day
after
day.
The
robot
is
a
lot
more
effective
in
cleaning
all
these
tiny
dirt,
thanks
to
its
fuzzy
logic
program, and
the robot
uses
very
little
power,
so
it
saves
you
a
lot
of
energy
(and
money) as
well
as
keeping
itself
extremely
quiet
during
operation.
2.
Do
I
need
to
keep
my
pet
or
baby
away while
the
robot
is
working
?
NO.
The
robot
is
so
gentle
and
quiet
it will not scare
anybody
or
even
a
pet. But
you
are
still
recommended
to
observe
in
the
first
few
runs
of
the
robot to
see
how
your
baby
or
pet
react
to
the
motion
of
the
robot
just
for
safety
reasons.
3.
Is
the
robot
able
to
handle
watered
floor
?
NO.
Water
and
moisture
would damage the
robot.
4.
Is
the
robot
able
to
treat
wooden
floor
other
than
tile
floor
?
YES.
The
robot
is
designed
to
work on a tiled
floor,
wooden
floor
and
linoleum
floor.
5.
Is
the
robot
suitable
for
outdoor
use
?
NO.
Never
use
the
robot
outdoors.
Weather
could
damage
it.
6.
Do
I
need
to
clean
up
the
dust
bin
every
time
after
vacuuming
?
You
are
recommended
to
clean
it
up
and
remove
dusts/hair
on
the
filter
with
a
soft
brush
gently
for every
two
times
of
use.
It
would
extend
the
lifespan
of
your
filter
if
you
take
good
care
of
it.
7.
Do
I
need
to
maintain
the
robot
frequently
?
NO.
The
robot
is
designed
to
be
so
user
friendly
that
you
just
need
to
inspect
the
side
brushes
every
month
to
see
whether
there
is
any
tangled
hair.
If
there
is
any, remove
them
by
unscrewing
the
side
brushes
and
screwing
them
back
in
good
order
upon
completion.
8.
What
will
happen
if
the
robot
gets
stuck
?
Thanks
to
the
user-friendly
design, it
will
stop
itself
if
it
gets
stuck.
9.
How
long
the
robot
can
run
after
it
is
fully
charged
?
The
robot
can
run
continuously
for
around
60
minutes
if
it
is
fully
charged
and
in
good
condition.
However,
it
would
remain
around
80%
of
the
original
running
duration
after
the
battery
is
aged.
10.
There
are
several
bedrooms
in
my
home
,
could
the
robot
clean
up
all
of
them
?

My
home
is
quite
big
.
Could
I
use
RC
320A
?
Yes,
you
can.
However,
since
the
working
area
for
RC
320A
is
around
620-650
square
feet
(around
60
square
meters
),
you
may
need
to
separate
your
home
into
several portions
and
do
the
cleaning
in
several
rounds.
Our
recommendation
is
to
consider a
model
from
our
range
which
could
handle
larger
working
area.
