Robot vacuum's schedule does not run; it never starts automatically at the programmed time.

Possible Causes
Incorrect time set on robot, Schedule disabled in app, Firmware bug, Internal clock battery or circuit fault
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No internal access is required.
- Verify time and date: In the Philips app or robot menu, ensure the current time and date are set correctly.
- Check schedule settings: Confirm that scheduled cleaning is enabled and days/times are correctly configured.
- Update firmware: Install any available firmware updates via the app.
- Test with simple schedule: Set a schedule a few minutes in the future and observe whether the robot starts.
- Service if still failing: If schedules never trigger despite correct settings, the internal clock or main PCB may be faulty and require replacement.
