Functional description
The unit functions as a charging and suction station for
the RCV 5 cleaning robot.
As a charging station, the functionality is identical to the
charging station supplied with the cleaning robot.
In addition, the station is used for suction. Suction starts
when the cleaning robot has completed its cleaning
task. However, suction can also be started manually.
During the suction process, a flap in the dust container
of the cleaning robot is opened by the vacuum created
and the dirt is transported into the filter bag of the sta-
tion.
The process can also be started manually.
Suction can only take place under the following condi-
tions:
● The cleaning robot is in the station.
● A filter bag is suspended in the station.
● The inserted filter bag is not full.
● The station cover is closed.
