Charging
gita is a battery-powered robot and requires
recharging. Under normal operating conditions the
battery supports an estimated 4 hours of
continuous walking and can be recharged in under
2 hours. We recommend that you plan your
journeys accordingly.
gita communicates its current charge status
through the charge indicator in the mygita app
and its wheel lighting:
• When the battery level is below 50% the wheel
lighting changes from white to yellow.
• When the battery level is below 10% the wheel
lighting and the buttons flash yellow
accompanied by an error sound.
• When the battery level drops below 5% gita is
no longer able to move. The buttons and the
wheel lighting turn red, gita enters Park mode,
and powers off. It can be used again when it has
been recharged.
To charge gita, plug the charging cable into the
charging port at the back of gita and the power
plug into a regular wall outlet. The charging port is
underneath the power button. gita enters a stable
Park position while charging.
While the battery is being charged, the Ready/Park
button pulses yellow; it changes to green once the
battery has been fully charged.
The mygita app provides you with a detailed
indication of the battery’s status during the
charge process.
While the charging cable is
plugged in it is not possible to
exit the Park mode.
From time to time gita performs
regular maintenance tasks while
the charging cable is plugged in.
For best results have gita’s
lenses point at structured
content rather than a white wall.
