Abstract

An automatically moving floor treatment appliance has a floor treatment element for acting on a surface to be treated, and a control device for controlling the floor treatment element. To increase the area of application of the floor treatment appliance, the control device is embodied to automatically control the floor treatment element as a function of a measuring result from an air parameter sensor in such a way that a floor treatment of the surface to be treated occurs using the floor treatment element and/or to automatically control the floor treatment element as a function of environmental data stored in an external storage device and relating to an air quality.
