Possible Causes

Blocked ventilation grilles, Clogged filters causing motor strain, Battery overheating, Internal fan failure (if equipped)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn the robot OFF and allow it to cool completely before further use.

  • 1. Clean vents: Inspect all ventilation openings on the robot body and gently clean them with a soft brush or compressed air.
  • 2. Service filters and dustbin: Empty the dustbin and clean or replace filters to reduce motor load.
  • 3. Reduce workload: Use a lower suction mode and shorter cleaning cycles to see if overheating improves.
  • 4. Check battery area: If the bottom shell near the battery is very hot, the battery may be failing. Replace the Electrolux battery pack.
  • 5. If overheating persists: Internal cooling fans (if present) or thermal sensors may be faulty. Professional diagnosis and possible main PCB or motor replacement are recommended.
