The swivel head rotates repeatedly.
There could be air trapped inside the robot. Submerge the robot while it is still off in the pool and gently shake it a few times to facilitate the discharge of air before switching it on (while the robot is still submerged). The swivel head may rotate repeatedly for a short time once the robot sinks to the pool bottom. This phenomenon will stop once the air trapped inside the robot is discharged and the robot will begin to move regularly.
Some parts of the pool are not covered by the cleaning path of the robot.
Follow instructions in the quick start manual to adjust the locking pin position to change the travel path of the robot.
