Possible Causes
Dust bin not installed, Robot not on floor (lifted), Child lock enabled in app, Faulty start button or keypad PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Keep the robot on a flat floor while testing.
- Check bin and covers: Ensure the dust bin is fully inserted and any top covers are closed properly.
- Disable child lock: Open the AEG app and verify that any child lock or key lock feature is turned off.
- Use app start: Try starting a cleaning cycle from the app to rule out a faulty physical button.
- Reset robot: Perform a soft reset (power cycle) or factory reset if necessary.
- If it still won’t start: The keypad / control panel PCB or mainboard input circuit may be defective and require replacement.
