Robot vacuum runs for only a few minutes then returns to dock or shuts off

Safety first: Turn OFF the robot and remove it from the dock.

• Step 1 – Full charge: Place the robot on the dock and charge for at least 5–6 hours until fully charged.
• Step 2 – Run to depletion: Start a cleaning cycle and let it run until it returns to dock or shuts off. Note the runtime.
• Step 3 – Inspect battery (advanced): Remove the bottom cover and check that the battery pack is not swollen and that its connector is firmly seated.
• Step 4 – Replace battery: If runtime is significantly below the original specification (e.g., less than 20–30 minutes), replace the battery pack with a genuine OKP battery of the same rating.
