Cleaning Mode Selection; Manual Driving - Philips FC8796 Bedienungsanleitung

3 The robot cleans in auto-cleaning mode until its battery runs low. In auto cleaning mode, it follows
repeated sequences of random, wall-following and spiral movements.
4 When the battery runs low, the start/stop button starts flashing quickly and the robot starts
searching for the docking station to charge (Fig. 22).
5 You can also press the start/stop button to interrupt or stop the cleaning run. If you press the
start/stop button again and there is still enough energy in the rechargeable battery, the robot
continues cleaning in the auto cleaning mode.
6 To make the robot return to the docking station before the rechargeable battery runs low, press the
docking button on the remote control (Fig. 23).
7 The start/stop button starts flashing and the robot returns to the docking station.
Note: If you did not start the robot from the docking station, it does not return to the docking
station automatically when the rechargeable battery runs low. If there is still enough energy in the
rechargeable battery, you can press the docking button on the remote control to make the robot
return to the docking station. If the rechargeable battery is completely empty, you have to place
the robot on the docking station manually.

Cleaning mode selection

This robot has three individual cleaning modes that can each be activated by pressing the appropriate
button on the remote control.
Random mode
In this mode, the robot cleans the room in a mixed pattern of straight and crisscross movements (Fig.
24).
Wall-following mode
In this mode, the robot follows the walls of the room to give the area alongside the walls an extra
clean (Fig. 25).
Spot-cleaning mode
In this mode, the robot moves randomly on a small area to clean this area thoroughly (Fig. 26).
Note: The manually selected modes are only active for a couple of minutes. After that, the robot
switches to auto-cleaning mode.

Manual driving

You can drive the robot manually with buttons on the remote control.
1 Use the arrow buttons above and below and to the left and right of the start/stop button on the
remote control to navigate the robot through the room. (Fig. 27)
Note: Be careful when you drive the robot manually close to height differences and staircases.
Note: The vacuuming function and the side brushes only work when the robot is driven forward.
The left, right or back buttons are only for maneuvering the robot.
Using the 24-hour scheduler
The 24-hour scheduler can be activated with the remote control. Make sure the robot is in standby
mode and is not positioned on the docking station.
1 Press the 24-hour scheduler button on the remote control to activate the 24-hour scheduler.
-
When you activate the 24-hour scheduler, the display starts to flash briefly every few seconds.
