Possible Causes

Missing or broken side brush, Worn or bent bristles, Side brush spinning too slowly, Side brush not installed correctly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the robot before handling the side brush.

Steps to try:

  • 1. Confirm side brush presence: Ensure a side brush is installed and not broken off.
  • 2. Inspect bristles: If bristles are bent backward or worn short, replace the side brush with a new Gorenje‑compatible one.
  • 3. Check rotation: Run the robot and observe the side brush. It should spin at a steady speed. If it barely moves, the motor may be weak.
  • 4. Clean around shaft: Remove the brush and clear hair from the shaft to reduce drag.
  • 5. Replace side brush motor if needed: If the motor cannot maintain speed, replace the side brush motor module.
