Functional capabilities

The Genio Profi 240's numerous features allow it to thoroughly clean any hard flooring (linoleum, laminate, parquet, tile, etc.), picking up large debris and tiny dust particles, and easily picking up hair and pet hair from low-pile carpets. Thanks to the built-in microfiber cloth, the robot vacuum cleaner is also capable of wiping hard floors.

The Genio Profi 240, like all robots in the Profi line, is equipped with a special brushless motor with a high rotor speed of up to 15,000 rpm and low power consumption. This motor allows cleaning large areas (2-3 rooms) without recharging.

The large dust container allows for extended cleaning without the need for additional cleaning. The model is equipped with two filters: a thorough cleaning filter and an anti-allergy HEPA filter.

Thirteen pairs of sensors control the device's operation and allow the vacuum cleaner to navigate perfectly. Floor sensors in this system detect elevation changes and areas of heavy soiling, while obstacle sensors help the robot estimate the distance to objects and walls. An improved navigation system and a cord-detangling system allow the device to clean floors more effectively. A powerful processor controls the entire robotic vacuum's adaptive system.

The kit also includes a space limiter – virtual wallThis feature allows you to create a virtual barrier for the robot vacuum cleaner, thereby limiting the area it cleans.

Overview of the four main operating modes:

1. Spot (local) cleaning – cleaning a limited area of ​​the room, in which the device moves in a spiral in the area of ​​greatest contamination.
2. Automatic (the robot itself builds the route).
3. Cleaning the floor around the perimeter (along the walls).
4. Zigzag movement - gradual continuous coverage of the entire floor surface.

The robot vacuum cleaner can perform dry cleaning of rooms and also clean floors in mopping mode. The model features essential features such as scheduled cleaning by setting a timer, allowing you to control the cleaning process and start the vacuum cleaner remotely using the remote control.

A distinctive feature of this model is the sound notification of the cleaning process with a special signal or message in Russian.
