How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn OFF the robot and remove from dock.

  • Check battery seating: If accessible, open the battery compartment and ensure the battery connector is firmly plugged in.
  • Full recharge: Charge the robot fully and test again.
  • Monitor pattern: Note if restarts occur on heavy carpet or when brushes encounter resistance; if so, reduce load by cleaning brushes.
