Possible Causes
Furniture clearance slightly lower than robot height, Thresholds higher than climbing spec, Loose cables or rugs, Bumper or sensors partially obstructed
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn OFF the robot before manually freeing it.
Modify environment:
- Block access to low-clearance furniture using physical barriers or no-go zones in the app (if supported).
- Secure loose cables and rug edges.
- Use threshold ramps for very high transitions.
Check sensors and bumper:
- Clean the bumper and front sensors to ensure accurate obstacle detection.
Advanced: If the robot still drives aggressively under furniture, check for firmware updates that may improve navigation behavior.
