Possible Causes

Overly long or stiff side brush bristles, Non‑OEM side brushes, Worn or bent side brush arms, Incorrect rotation speed due to firmware or motor issue

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn the robot OFF before changing brushes.

  • 1. Inspect side brushes: Check for bent or splayed bristles. Compare with new Rowenta brushes if available.
  • 2. Replace with OEM: Use genuine Rowenta side brushes or high‑quality equivalents with the correct length and stiffness.
  • 3. Check installation: Ensure brushes are firmly attached and not wobbling on their shafts.
  • 4. Test on different floor: Try on hard floor and low‑pile carpet to see if performance improves.
