How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: If the robot or dock becomes very hot to the touch, unplug the dock immediately and remove the robot. Do not continue charging until inspected.
Steps to try:
- 1. Check ventilation: Ensure the dock and robot are in a cool, well‑ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
- 2. Clean contacts: Wipe charging contacts on both robot and dock to reduce resistance.
- 3. Monitor temperature: After reconnecting, periodically touch the robot; it should be warm but not uncomfortably hot.
- 4. Try another outlet/dock: If available, test with a different Gorenje dock or outlet to rule out power issues.
- 5. Replace battery or dock: Persistent overheating suggests a failing battery pack or dock electronics; replace the suspect component and seek service if unsure.
