Trilobite – a class of arthropods that lived on earth about 250-560 million years ago. Many received nourishment by vacuuming the ocean beds for small animals and particles. Their backs were hard, and they are perhaps the most well known fossils we know today, and can often be observed embedded in stone in walls, staircases and floors. This ancient creature has served as a source of inspiration for the futuristic design of Trilobite. Trilobite_2_Eng_Fi_Ru.

“I am Trilobite – your personal vacuum cleaner. I do the vacuuming so you can do other things” Trilobite_2_Eng_Fi_Ru.indd 2 04-07-01 15.17.
I am your automatic vacuum cleaner. The Trilobite. Just leave me on the floor and I will do the job for you. Scan the room, move around by myself and vacuum the floor. You don’t even need to watch me. I keep on working independently until the entire room is vacuumed. And I even recharge automatically when necessary. And I turn myself off when I’m finished. Enable time for yourself – to ease your mind.
Product description Roller Filter lid lock button Drive wheel Rating plate Terminals for connection to charger Roller cover lock button Battery charger Dust collector Flexible bumper Connection terminals Display Trilobite Trilobite navigates using ultrasound and uses infrared light to detect level differences. During edge cleaning, it receives information about the size of the room. Edge cleaning serves as the basis for the estimated duration for independent vacuuming in the Normal vacuuming mode.
Functional Description Charger Place the charger close to a wall. This way, Trilobite will find the charger in the edge cleaning mode. Start Start Trilobite directly from the charger or face it towards a wall at a distance of 0.5 m, to the right of the charger. Start vacuuming (see page 11). Edge cleaning Trilobite starts by first travelling along the walls of the room to establish the size of the room. Cleaning In the Vacuum Cycle, Trilobite moves through the room at its own.
For Your Own Safety Trilobite is a machine that moves by itself. It is tempting to prying children’s fingers and is at work when nobody is around... With this in mind, it is important to read the following before you put it to work. Danger Warning Caution General Use Only use Trilobite for normal household vacuuming. Do not use Trilobite to vacuum • outdoors • attics or basements garage • bathrooms, washing rooms or other wet rooms • ventilation rooms, inside false ceilings, etc.
Before vacuuming While cleaning Risk of falling The Trilobite cannot sense level differences lower than 10 centimetres. Because of this, it might travel down a stairway or fall off a terrace if the initial level difference is small. It may even start climbing up inclines, e.g. slides in children’s rooms. Consequently, be sure to close all doors and “box” Trilobite in with magnetic strips where necessary. (Available as after sales item.
Preparations Before Use 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. 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).
Affixing the magnetic strip Clean the surface with the enclosed cleaning pad. Allow to dry. Always attach the magnetic strip on top of the level difference (Figure 5) and never along its side (as shown in Figure 6 and 7). NOTE! Do not place the magnetic strip at an angle of less than 90°. 5. Warning! Credit cards, etc. held in the immediate vicinity may become demagnetised. 3. 6. 4. 7. 1. Room with a low landing 2. Room with wall openings Pull off the protective backing. Affix the magnetic strip.

Always replace with a new filter. Cleaning the Roller 1. Check the roller each time the dust collector is emptied. Begin by lifting Trilobite by the handle.
6. Rinse the dust collector under running water. Do not clean in a dishwasher or clothes washing machine. 7. Insert a new filter and replace the grille. 8.

Questions and Answers Should I pay attention to anything special when I vacuum a room for the first time? Why does Trilobite sometime pause for approximately 10 seconds during vacuuming? It is a good idea to be present when the room is vacuumed the first time, for example to see if it takes unnecessary time for Trilobite to navigate around furniture. Trilobite uses two battery packs. It will briefly pause when switching from one battery pack to the other.
Why do I have to place magnetic strips by level differences of less than 10 cm? Depending on the floor colour and texture, Trilobite may not detect level differences of less than 10 cm in some cases. Do I need to vacuum myself also? Yes, in areas that Trilobite cannot reach, such as staircases, bookshelves, underneath very low furniture, etc. However, if Trilobite is used regularly, the total amount of dust in the room is reduced. This reduces the need for manual vacuuming.
