3.1 Notes Before Cleaning
Before operating DEEBOT, take a few moments to survey the area to be
cleaned and remove any obstacles.
Remove power cords and small objects from
the floor that could entangle the product.
The product is not suitable for use on long-pile
carpet. Before using the product near an area
rug or on a short-pile area rug with tasseled
edges, please fold area rug edges under
themselves.
Please be aware that the robot needs at
least an 8 cm (3”) clearance to clean under
furniture without complications.
If there is a step or stairs in the cleaning area,
please operate DEEBOT to ensure its Anti-
Drop Sensors can detect the drop off. It may
be necessary to place a physical barrier at the
edge of the drop off to keep the unit from falling
over the edge.
