Question
How do I set up a Wi-Fi connection for my robot vacuum cleaner?
Answer
Please note that the robot hoovers can only be connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Then carry out the following steps:
- Install the Life+ app on your smartphone / tablet. You can also use the QR code in your operating instructions. Check whether your smartphone / tablet is connected to your router's 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. You can find more information about your router in the manufacturer's operating instructions or from your internet provider.
- Activate the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and location functions on your smartphone / tablet.
- Start the Life+ app and create an user account. If you already have an user account, log in with your access data.
- In the next step, enter the password for your Wi-Fi network. If the desired Wi-Fi network is not preselected, enter the network name manually. Make sure you use upper and lower case letters.
- Tap on the ADD DEVICE button and select the LASER ROBOT VACUUM CLEANER device category
- Select your device using the device designation (S20, X10, X40 etc.).
- Your robot hoover must now be set to pairing mode. To do this, follow the instructions in the Life+ app. Ensure that the robot hoover is standing on the docking station connected to the power supply and has been switched on using the power button on the device.
- The voice feedback of the device indicates when the robot has been successfully set to pairing mode.
- You can now connect your smartphone/tablet to the device hotspot. The hotspot is displayed as SL-Medion-XXX or SmartLife-XXXX.
- Select your device hotspot and confirm with Connect now. On Android, you will be automatically redirected to the Wi-Fi settings. On iOS, you may have to navigate to the Wi-Fi menu manually. After successfully connecting to the device hotspot (SL-MEDION-XXX network), return to the app.
- The connection setup in the app is started automatically. After a successful connection, a corresponding confirmation is displayed, that the device has been successfully added.
