How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Remove the robot from the dock before resetting.

  • Soft reset: Perform a soft reset or reboot using the button combination specified in the user manual or app.
  • Factory reset: If the error persists, back up any maps (if supported) and perform a factory reset from the settings menu or app.
  • Battery check: Ensure the battery is charged. If the robot is very old and the battery is weak, replace the battery pack and retest.
  • If still failing: Persistent internal errors usually indicate a failing main control board. Board-level repair or replacement is typically required and is best handled by a service center.
