# What cleaning cycles are available on my Dolphin robotic pool cleaner and how do I choose between the different options?

There are between 1 and 5 types of cycles with different durations depending on the model of your Dolphin:

The duration of each cycle also varies according to the model of your Dolphin and can be used according to your needs.

* **The short cycle** = the robot will only clean the bottom of the pool;
* **The normal cycle** = the default cycle of your Dolphin (specificities vary according to your robot);
* **The long cycle** = the robot will perform a complete cleaning of your pool (bottom, walls and water line);
* **The ultra-clean cycle** = the robot cleans the bottom, walls and water line with extreme care;
* **The water line cycle** = the robot cleans the walls and water line only.
* If you want to know more, we advise you to refer to the [user manual](https://manuals.maytronics.com/) of your robot, you will have to indicate the model of your Dolphin.
