You may well develop a personal affection to Trilobite and
appreciate its intelligence. To get the best from your Trilobite,
we recommend you consider the following.
Charging (see also picture “Charging status”)
Put the battery charger on the floor, connect it to the mains and place
it with its rear side facing the wall. Allow a free space of 0.2 metres to
the right of the charger.
Check the battery indicator before vacuuming starts.
Refer to the lower, middle picture.
A. Charge your Trilobite before vacuuming
B. You can commence vacuuming. But your Trilobite will need to
find the charger soon.
C. You don’t need a charger in the room to start vacuuming
Avoid interrupting the charging process. If unavoidable, pull the
machine away from the charger and press the
button. Vacuuming can
also be started while Trilobite is still being charged. If the power to the
charger is interrupted for more than 30 seconds during charging, and
you have not manually placed Trilobite in the charger, it will leave it,
take a spin on the floor and then connect with the charger again. To
ensure that the batteries are fully charged after Trilobite has been left
unused in the charger for a longer period of time, pull it out and push
it back in to start a new charge cycle.
Move the furniture
Trilobite picks its way around furniture, whether freestanding or placed
flush against a wall. However, cleaning is both quicker and more
effective if you move the furniture slightly before it is time to start
cleaning. Of course, you do not need to move heavy furniture such as
sofas. On the other hand, chairs can be conveniently placed on top of
tables, lamps can be moved out of the way, loose rugs can be shifted.
But don’t complicate matters more than you need to! Normally, all
you need to do is to put Trilobite on the floor and let it get on with
the job of cleaning.
Loose objects
Trilobite cannot distinguish between dust, coins, rings and expensive
jewellery. Before starting Trilobite, be sure to put away small, loose
objects you do not want to lose. Also make sure there are no cords
or other objects on the floor that may prevent Trilobite from moving
freely in the room.
For your own safety
Before vacuuming, read “For Your Own Safety“ on page 6–7!
Preparations Before Use
Recharging
Push the Trilobite unit with its rear against the battery
charger’s contact plate. Press it in securely. Keep it
pressed in until you hear an acknowledging signal
(this may take a few seconds). This is particularly
important if the batteries are almost entirely dead.
When the batteries are exhausted: Push Trilobite
against the charger and hold it there for about a min-
ute. Take it out and push it in again. Trilobite will then
automatically move towards the charger.
The battery charger
should be placed
along a wall with a
free margin of 0.2
metres to the right of
the charger.
Charging status
The battery indicator on Trilobite’s
display shows the battery capacity
during vacuuming and charging.
An audible signal
sounds and the
bat tery symbol in the
display show when
charging commences.
Trilobite becomes fully
charged in about two
hours at which time
“Ready” shows in the
display.
If the battery charger
is placed on a soft
surface, e.g. a rug or
carpet, or if you have
a protruding skirting
board preventing you
from placing the battery
charger right against the
wall, use the adjustment
screw on the back of
the battery charger.
