How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the vacuum and remove the battery before accessing filters.

  • Check HEPA filter: Remove the exhaust filter and inspect for tears, holes, or missing seals. Replace if damaged.
  • Verify correct filter: Ensure you are using the correct iRobot HEPA filter model for your cordless vacuum; generic filters may not seal properly.
  • Seat filter correctly: Reinstall the filter, making sure it is fully inserted and any latches are engaged.
  • Inspect housing: Look for cracks or gaps in the exhaust filter frame or cover. Replace the cover or housing if broken.
