Possible Causes

Battery cells aged from many cycles, Robot stored for long periods without charging, High-power modes used constantly, Battery not genuine or undersized

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Power off the robot before opening any battery compartment.

Step-by-step:

  • Check battery stats: In the Roborock app (if supported), review battery health or cycle count.
  • Calibrate battery: Fully charge the robot, then run it until it returns to dock due to low battery. Repeat once to recalibrate.
  • Replace battery: If runtime remains poor, replace the battery pack with a genuine Roborock battery of the correct model.

Dispose of the old battery according to local regulations for lithium-ion batteries.
