6. Using the app

Notes

If your home Wi-Fi name or password is changed, you will need to re-establish the connection with your robot vacuum.

The App supports iOS 9.0 and above and Android 6.0 and above phone system versions; Pad devices are not accepted. Generally the phone system version can be checked under "Settings → About Mobile Phone".
This model does not support WEP-encrypted routers.
Network configuration of the cleaner requires a Wi-Fi network in the 2.4 GHz frequency range; the 5 GHz frequency range is not currently compatible.
Do not configure network access while the unit is charging.
Wi-Fi is mandatory for network configuration of the cleaner. Once configured successfully, the App may be operated in a Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G network environment and the cleaner may be controlled remotely.
If your home Wi-Fi password is changed or the router is replaced, you only need to configure network access for the cleaner once again — without any changes to your App account.
If others want to use the App to operate the same cleaner, they need to be invited on the App by the family creator (on the condition that the invitee has downloaded the App and registered an account).
When the App changes, old users may be invited to remove the device on the mobile App, and the new users just need to configure network access directly according to the instructions. (If the old users don't remove the device, it will be removed automatically after the new users configure network access successfully.)
Once the cleaner is configured successfully, the following operation will clear the Wi-Fi settings and require re-configuration: long press the network configuration key on the device for over 3 seconds; after a tick sound is heard, all Wi-Fi information is cleared.

If the machine will not be used for a long time and needs to be shut down, long press the button for 3 seconds; the power indicator begins to flash.
The cleaner makes a chord sound, and when the power indicator turns off, the machine shuts down successfully.
The cleaner cannot shut down when it is on the charging dock. If shutdown is required, remove the machine from the charging dock first.

Notes

The machine will not start to clean when the battery energy is too low; charge it before starting to clean.
During cleaning, the machine will automatically return to charge when the battery energy is too low, then go back to its interruption point to resume after the machine is fully charged.
The machine enters sleep mode when it has been in standby for more than 10 minutes; in sleep mode, pressing any key will wake up the machine.
During charging, the power indicator flashes, and is then always on after charging is complete.

6. Using the app

Notes

If your home Wi-Fi name or password is changed, you will need to re-establish the connection with your robot vacuum.

The App supports iOS 9.0 and above and Android 6.0 and above phone system versions; Pad devices are not accepted. Generally the phone system version can be checked under "Settings → About Mobile Phone".
This model does not support WEP-encrypted routers.
Network configuration of the cleaner requires a Wi-Fi network in the 2.4 GHz frequency range; the 5 GHz frequency range is not currently compatible.
Do not configure network access while the unit is charging.
Wi-Fi is mandatory for network configuration of the cleaner. Once configured successfully, the App may be operated in a Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G network environment and the cleaner may be controlled remotely.
If your home Wi-Fi password is changed or the router is replaced, you only need to configure network access for the cleaner once again — without any changes to your App account.
If others want to use the App to operate the same cleaner, they need to be invited on the App by the family creator (on the condition that the invitee has downloaded the App and registered an account).
When the App changes, old users may be invited to remove the device on the mobile App, and the new users just need to configure network access directly according to the instructions. (If the old users don't remove the device, it will be removed automatically after the new users configure network access successfully.)
Once the cleaner is configured successfully, the following operation will clear the Wi-Fi settings and require re-configuration: long press the network configuration key on the device for over 3 seconds; after a tick sound is heard, all Wi-Fi information is cleared.

Connect your robot vacuum

Ensure your mobile phone is connected to your home Wi-Fi.

Add your robot vacuum to your app. Press the "+" button on the main screen of the app and select CFR08 from the available list of products.
