Abstract[English]
A docking station for a self-propelled pool cleaner may be supported at one or more locations within a swimming pool or spa, such as but not limited to a skimmer of the swimming pool or spa, a port for a circulation system of the pool or spa such as an inlet or an outlet, a pool light fitting of the pool or spa, and/or on a floor of the pool or spa. The docking stations may utilize existing features of the swimming pool or spa without requiring additional devices or systems for installing the docking station.[French]
