How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the dock before cleaning contacts.

  • Clean contacts: Wipe the metal charging contacts on the robot and the dock with a dry microfiber cloth. For stubborn oxidation, lightly rub with a pencil eraser, then wipe clean.
  • Check alignment: Place the dock against a wall on a hard, level surface. Ensure the robot can approach straight on.

If E15 persists and the robot will not charge, the dock or robot charging board may require replacement.
