Setting up your Hydro Puls Robotic Pool Cleaner is simple if you follow these detailed steps. Let’s walk through the process together to ensure your pool cleaner is installed correctly and ready to use.
Step 1: Unbox and Check Components
1. Open the packaging carefully and take out all components.
2. Ensure you have the following items:
• Robotic Pool Cleaner
• Charging Adapter
• Remote Controller (requires a 9V battery)
• AC/DC Power Supply with cable
• Signal Buoy (optional, for better connectivity)
• Cleaning Buoy (optional, for additional functionality)
• User Manual
3. Inspect all components for damage. If anything is missing or broken, contact the supplier immediately.
Step 2: Prepare the Power Supply
1. Place the AC/DC Power Supply in a safe, indoor location away from the pool. This prevents water damage and keeps the unit safe.
2. Connect the power cable to the robotic pool cleaner:
• Align the 5-pin connector with the socket on the cleaner.
• Rotate the connector clockwise until it is securely attached.
3. Plug the power supply into a grounded power outlet that has GFCI protection (a safety feature to prevent electrical shocks).
Step 3: Connect Buoys (If Provided)
For the Cleaning Buoy:
1. Find the 4-pin connector on the cleaning buoy cable.
2. Align it with the port on the cleaning buoy and rotate clockwise to secure.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the robotic pool cleaner. Ensure the connection is tight and gap-free to prevent water ingress.
For the Signal Buoy:
1. Follow the same steps as above but use the signal buoy instead.
2. Ensure both buoys are properly connected before moving to the next step.
Step 4: Power On the Robotic Pool Cleaner
1. Place the robotic cleaner flat on the ground in an open space.
2. Press the Power button. The device will:
• Emit three beeps to indicate startup.
• Flash a yellow LED to show it is in standby mode.
3. Ensure all protective caps and connectors are securely fastened to avoid water damage when placed in the pool.
Step 5: Submerge the Cleaner
1. Gently place the robotic cleaner into the pool near the edge.
2. Allow it to submerge completely. Wait for about 30 seconds, and the cleaner will automatically start in “Bottom Cleaning Mode.”
3. Double-check that no cables are tangled or exposed.
Step 6: Connect and Operate Using the App (Optional)
For those who prefer smartphone control, follow these steps to connect the cleaner to the Smart Life App:
1. Download the App:
• Scan the QR code from the user manual or search for “Smart Life” on the Google Play Store or App Store.
2. Enable Configuration Mode:
• Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on the cleaner (or buoy) for 3 seconds. The indicator light will start flashing.
3. Pair with the App:
• Open the app and enable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on your phone.
• Select “Add Device” in the app and follow the instructions to pair the cleaner.
4. Once paired, you can control the cleaner’s movement and modes directly from your phone.
Step 7: Operate Using the Remote Controller (Optional)
1. Insert a 9V battery into the remote controller.
2. Turn on the remote and extend the antenna. Hold it at a 45-degree angle for better signal strength.
3. Use the remote buttons to:
• Start/Stop Cleaning
• Change between modes:
• Auto Cleaning: For the whole pool.
• Wall Cleaning: Focuses on pool walls.
• Bottom Cleaning: Focuses on the pool floor.
4. Ensure you are within a 15-meter range of the cleaner for the remote to work effectively.
Step 8: Post-Cleaning Maintenance
After the cleaning session:
1. Remove the cleaner from the pool carefully. It will be heavier due to water inside.
2. Open the filter cover and take out the filter basket.
3. Rinse the basket and filter panels with a hose to remove debris and algae.
4. Let the cleaner dry completely before storing it in a cool, dry place.
Step 9: Charging the Cleaner
1. Open the charging port cover on the cleaner.
2. Connect the charging adapter:
• Plug one end into the cleaner and the other into the power outlet.
3. Monitor the charging status:
• Red light: Charging in progress.
• Green light: Charging complete.
4. Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed after charging.
Step 10: Schedule Cleaning (Optional)
Using the app, you can:
1. Set a specific start time.
2. Choose a cleaning mode (e.g., Auto, Wall, or Bottom Clean).
3. Schedule cleaning days for regular maintenance.
Helpful Tips:
• Always clean the filter after each session to maintain performance.
• Never leave the cleaner submerged in the pool for more than 8 hours per day.
• Store the device in a dry, shaded area to prolong its lifespan.
With these steps, your Hydro Puls Robotic Pool Cleaner will be set up and ready to deliver sparkling clean pools effortlessly. If you encounter issues, consult the troubleshooting section in the user manual or reach out to customer support.
