Set up the dock and charge

1. Push the bracket up into the groove on the back of the dock until it clicks.
2. Plug the dock in.
3. Sit the robot on the dock and a breathing light shows it’s charging. A full charge takes around 4 hours, and the light turns solid green when it’s ready.

Connect to the Beatbot app

1. Download the Beatbot app from the App Store or Google Play.
2. Switch the robot on, and make sure your phone is on a strong Wi-Fi signal and within a metre of the robot.
3. Hold Power and Floor Mode together for 3 seconds, until the light flashes blue.
4. In the app, tap Add Device and it will find the robot by Bluetooth, or tap Scan to Add and scan the QR code on the robot. Then follow the app, and don’t forget to register your warranty while you’re there.

Start a clean

1. Check the robot is charged, the light should be solid green.
2. Press a mode button on the robot, or choose a mode in the app.
3. Place the robot on level ground and wait around 5 seconds while it calibrates, this helps it plan the most efficient path around your pool.
4. Lower the robot gently into the water and it will start cleaning on its own.

Lift the robot out and empty the filter

1. When the robot has finished, it will park at the waterline next to the pool wall. If the robot doesn’t come back to the edge, lift it out with the hook.
2. Lift the robot out gently by the handle.
3. Open the top cover, lift out the filter basket, empty and rinse it, then refit it.
4. Once the robot is dry, put it back on the dock ready for next time. After each use, clear any hair or sand from the water outlet and the roller brushes, and give the sensors a wipe.

Should the pool pump be running while the robot is cleaning?

For the best results turn your filtration equipment off while the robot is cleaning, the currents created by the pump can interfere with the robot’s movement and stop it covering the whole pool.

Can we swim while the robot is cleaning?

No, please stay out of the pool until the robot has finished, then you can enjoy the pool knowing it’s been cleaned.

What should I do before the first clean of the season?

After winter it’s worth removing any larger debris such as leaves by hand first, this stops the filter basket filling up too quickly and lets the robot get on with the fine cleaning.

How does the robot avoid obstacles?

Most modern cars use ultrasonic sensors to measure how close to objects you are when parking or reversing, the AquaSense 2 uses the same ultrasonic sensors to detect and avoid obstacles when cleaning your pool.

Why does the robot take a few minutes to sink?

When the robot is placed into the water the air from inside will need to be expelled, so please allow around 3 minutes and the cleaner will then settle on the floor and start its cycle.

Why does the robot make a noise before and after cleaning?

This is perfectly normal, the noise before each cycle is the robot expelling trapped air and afterwards the cleaner takes around 3 minutes to expel the trapped water, saving you from lifting a heavy, water-filled cleaner.

Why does the app lose connection while the robot is cleaning?

Wi-Fi can’t travel through water, so the robot will drop out of the app while it’s under the surface, once it surfaces it reconnects automatically and updates the app with its cleaning data.

The robot has stopped or is barely moving, what should I check?

In the rare instance the cleaner stops moving, check for obstructions such as a drain cover, make sure the filter basket isn’t full and that the pool pump is switched off. If the robot hasn’t freed itself after a few minutes, use the hook to lift it clear and it will carry on cleaning.

The robot won’t charge, what should I check?

Make sure the dock is plugged in, the robot is located on the dock correctly, and the charging pins are clean. The robot will only charge between 0 and 40°C, in cold weather please do not charge the robot outside or in unheated outhouses.

Why is the robot showing offline in the app?

This is normally due to a weak Wi-Fi signal, the battery needing charging, the robot being linked to another account or a change to your router’s name or password. If the robot stays offline, reset its Wi-Fi and reconnect it to the app.

Will the robot remove algae?

Robot pool cleaners will not fully remove algae from your pool, so algae should always be treated and removed manually before using a robot cleaner, please note that cleaners may not move correctly across algae covered surfaces. Used regularly a robot cleaner can help to prevent the regrowth of algae alongside filtration and correct water chemistry.

How should I store the robot over winter?

Drain the robot fully by pressing and holding Floor Mode for 3 secs, switch it off, then store it indoors somewhere cool, dry and frost-free. Check the battery at least every 6 months and charge it to around 50%, this keeps the battery healthy and ready for next season.

Do I need to register the robot for the warranty?

Yes, the three year full replacement warranty requires the cleaner to be registered, please download and connect to the Beatbot app to register your robot, being connected also allows faults to be diagnosed remotely and additional cleaning modes to be selected.
