Possible Causes

Rugs with long tassels, Cords and cables on floor, Thresholds higher than robot's climbing ability, Worn drive wheels reducing traction

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Always power off the robot before untangling it from cords or rugs.

  • Prepare the environment: Remove or tape down loose cords and cables. Fold rug tassels under the rug or remove problematic rugs during cleaning.
  • Use virtual boundaries: In the Wyze app, set no-go zones around thick rugs, thresholds, or cable-heavy areas.
  • Check wheel condition: Inspect drive wheel treads for wear or smooth spots that reduce traction. Replace wheel modules if treads are severely worn.
  • Adjust cleaning schedule: Run the robot when you can supervise initially to identify and mitigate problem areas.
