Section 4. General Cleaner
Operation
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the cleaner, to adhere to the following
guidelines:
• Remove the cleaner from the pool after the cleaning cycle is
completed.
• Store out of direct sunlight or inclement weather.
• Never lift the cleaner out of the pool by the floating cable.
• Take additional care when lifting the cleaner out of the pool.
It becomes heavier when filled with water.
• Always remove the cleaner from pool when super chlorinating
or adding acid.
• Do not handle cleaner while it is in operation.
IMPORTANT
• Always fully submerge the cleaner head before you begin
operation.
• Clean the filter canister after each cleaning cycle.
• Do not leave your cleaner in the pool on a permanent basis.
• At the end of each cycle, remove the cleaner from the pool.
• Start at the cleaner head and untangle any coils in the cable
before storing the cleaner.
The robotic cleaner includes a safety feature that
automatically stops the cleaner if a cleaning cycle
starts but it is not submerged in water. For pools
equipped with a beach area, this safety feature is
programmed to drive the cleaner in reverse and
back into the pool when the impeller is out of the
water.
WARNING
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Do not enter pool while the robotic cleaner is in water.
4.1
Install and Submerge the Cleaner
1.
With the control box plugged into a GFCI
outlet, spread the floating cable across the
pool deck until you reach the middle of the
pool length.
2.
At the center point, submerge the cleaner in
the pool and hold in the vertical position to
release any air trapped inside.

Ensure the unit sinks to the bottom of the pool
and does not float.

4.
Place only enough floating cable in the water
to reach the farthest end of your pool from the
central point. Spread out the floating cable
ensuring there are no kinks or coils in the
cable.
NOTE: For optimal patterning and reduced tangling, the
floating cable should enter the water near the
middle of the pool length. Only place enough
cable in the water to reach the farthest point in
the pool.
