Mobility / Obstacle Clearance Limitation
Robot vacuum frequently gets stuck on thresholds, rugs, or small obstacles without reporting a specific error code.

Possible Causes
Worn drive wheels reducing ground clearance, Weak wheel suspension springs, Overly thick or loose rugs, Thresholds higher than design spec
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the robot before inspecting wheels and suspension.
- 1. Inspect wheels: Check the tread on the drive wheels. If the rubber is worn smooth or cracked, replace the wheel modules.
- 2. Test suspension: Press each wheel upward; it should move and spring back. If a wheel does not travel or feels weak, the suspension may be damaged.
- 3. Adjust environment: Use threshold ramps or remove/secure loose rugs that the robot consistently gets stuck on.
- 4. Use no-go zones (if supported): In the LG app, set virtual boundaries around problem areas to prevent the robot from entering.
