Problem
The rechargeable battery
can no longer be charged
or runs empty very fast.
The robot is moving in
circles.
The robot cannot find the
docking station.
Possible cause
The suction opening in the
bottom of the dust container is
clogged.
The front wheel is jammed
with hair or other dirt.
The robot is cleaning a very
dark or shiny surface, which
triggers the drop-off sensors.
This causes the robot to move
in an unusual pattern.
The robot is cleaning a floor
that reflects sunlight quite
strongly. This triggers the drop-
off sensors and causes the
robot to move in an unusual
pattern.
The rechargeable battery has
reached the end of its life.
The robot is in spot-cleaning
mode.
There is not enough room for
the robot to navigate towards
the docking station.
The robot is still actively
searching.
Solution
If cleaning the EPA filter does not help
anymore, replace the filter with a new
one. We advise you to replace the EPA
filter at least once a year.
Clean the suction opening (see 'Cleaning
the robot').
Clean the front wheel (see 'Cleaning the
robot').
Press the start/stop button and then
move the robot to a lighter colored
piece of the floor. If the problem
continues to occur on lighter colored
floors, please go to
www.philips.com/support or contact the
Consumer Care Center in your country.
Close the curtains to block sunlight from
entering the room. You can also start
cleaning when the sunlight is less bright.
Have the rechargeable battery replaced
by a Philips service center (see
'Replacing the rechargeable battery').
This is normal behavior. The spot-
cleaning mode can be activated when a
lot of dirt is detected on the floor for a
thorough clean. It is also part of the auto
cleaning mode. After approximately one
minute the robot resumes its normal
cleaning pattern. You can also stop the
spot-cleaning mode by selecting a
different cleaning mode on the remote
control.
You can also stop the spot-cleaning
mode by selecting a different cleaning
mode on the remote control.
Try to find another place for the docking
station (see 'Installing the docking
station').
Give the robot around 20 minutes to
return to the docking station.
