Possible Causes

Worn drive wheel treads, Weak drive motors, Excessively thick carpets or thresholds, Loose cables on floor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn the robot OFF before handling it.

  • 1. Prepare environment: Remove loose cables, small rugs, and obstacles from the floor before cleaning.
  • 2. Inspect wheels: Check the rubber treads on the drive wheels for wear or damage. Replace wheel assemblies if treads are smooth or cracked.
  • 3. Adjust cleaning area: Use virtual walls or no‑go zones in the Bosch app (if supported) to block problematic areas.
  • 4. Test on different surfaces: Observe performance on hard floors vs. thick carpets to determine if the issue is surface‑specific.
