Setting up your Narwal Freo robot mop with voice assistant compatibility enhances your cleaning experience by allowing hands-free operation. Follow these step-by-step instructions to ensure a smooth setup process.
Unboxing and Initial Setup
Begin by unboxing your Narwal Freo and verifying all components are present, including the robot mop, charging dock, power adapters, and user manual. Place the charging dock in a central location against a wall, ensuring it has ample space around it for unobstructed access.
Connect the charging dock to a power outlet using the provided adapter. Allow the device to charge for at least 2 hours before initial use.
Downloading and Installing the App
Download the Narwal app from the App Store or Google Play Store. Install the app on your smartphone or tablet. Open the app and create a new account or log in if you already have one.
Connecting the Narwal Freo to Wi-Fi
Power on the Narwal Freo by placing it on the charging dock. Ensure your mobile device is connected to your Wi-Fi network. In the app, follow the on-screen instructions to connect the robot to your Wi-Fi network. Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the password when prompted.
Enabling Voice Assistant Integration
Navigate to the app’s settings menu and locate the ‘Voice Assistant’ or ‘Smart Home’ integration options. Choose your preferred voice assistant platform—Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant—and follow the prompts to link your accounts.
For Amazon Alexa:
- Open the Alexa app on your device.
- Go to ‘Skills & Games’ and search for ‘Narwal.’

Configuring Voice Commands
Once linked, customize your voice commands within the app or the voice assistant platform. Typical commands include:
- “Alexa, start the Narwal Freo.”
- “Hey Google, clean the floors.”
- “Alexa, stop the Narwal.”
- “Hey Google, return Narwal to charging.”
Testing and Final Adjustments
Test the voice commands to ensure the Narwal Freo responds correctly. Place the robot on the floor and give a command like ‘Start cleaning.’ Observe the device’s response and make any necessary adjustments in the app settings.
If the robot does not respond, verify the Wi-Fi connection, account linkages, and voice assistant permissions. Restart the device and try again if needed.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Regularly update the Narwal app and firmware to ensure compatibility and access to new features. Clean the robot’s sensors and brushes periodically for optimal performance. Consult the user manual for troubleshooting common issues or contact customer support for assistance.
Conclusion
With your Narwal Freo now connected to your Wi-Fi and voice assistant, you can enjoy effortless cleaning. Use voice commands to start, stop, or return the robot to its dock, making floor maintenance more convenient than ever.
