Start up
La Conga 8090 comes partially charged, but It is advisable to fully charge the battery before starting it for the first time..
Like other high-end robots, If it is not enough, it has loading and continuation, so it returns to the base and charges and then resumes cleaning where it left off, until it is finished. In this case, thanks to Total Surface 3.0 technology, It recharges only what is necessary to finish, in order to do it in less time.
It is advisable to place the charging base in a place with good coverage and where there is enough space to maneuver (as orientation, one meter free to the sides and forward), although this is not strictly necessary, since Thanks to its advanced navigation system, the Conga 8090 Ultra moves with high precision, sneaking through spaces where it barely fits.
Once charged, it can be operated in multiple ways: with the button on the top, with the remote control, through voice commands (compatible with Alexa and Google Home) and through an app on your mobile, the application being the best way to take advantage of all its advanced functions.
The app is available for iOS and Android, and Once downloaded, you simply have to follow the steps that it proposes., in a simple and intuitive way.
Using the application provides great convenience and versatility, since we can put to work Conga 8090 whenever we want and wherever we are: at work, on the street, in a cafeteria... and so when we get home we will always find it clean (of course, you can also program it to work on the days and hours you set).
To access some advanced functions it is necessary to have a map of the house, so the first thing we will do is map the home, putting the robot in automatic mode, starting the cleaning from the charging base and leaving the doors open so that it can access all the rooms.
When finished, it will ask us to save the map, and We can edit the rooms (merging or dividing), if the proposed distribution does not fit exactly what we want, and from there you can access functions such as cleaning areas or rooms, or creating restricted areas, for example.
Operation of the Conga 8090 Ultra
La Conga 8090 is a high-end multifunction robot, with a high performance in virtually every aspect, making it one of the best alternatives for those looking for an effective and efficient device.
Navigation

The laser is the most precise system there is, and that is why it is used in areas such as engineering, aeronautics or medicine, and it allows the robot to move efficiently and with great accuracy. covering 100% of the surface of the home fluidly and barely touching anything.
The LDS laser sensor has several meters of range, so mapping is very fast and navigation is predictive, since it anticipates obstacles before reaching them, and can move in dark conditions, unlike other models with camera-based systems.
The laser is also combined with other sensors (optical, proximity, anti-shock, anti-fall, etc.), to achieve the best interaction with the environment, so that the Conga 8090 Ultra cleans very quickly, approximately 1 m2 per minute or even more.
The optical sensor allows even greater precision, with rectilinear, orderly and efficient movements, controlling the spaces at all times and improving the location of the robot.
