Solution
• The battery level is low. Put the robot on the charging dock and charge it before use.
• The battery temperature is too low or too high. Only use the robot within the range of 4-40°C (39-104°F).
• Check the power indicator light turns on and both ends of the power cabel are properly connected.
• If contact is poor, clean the contact areas on the charging dock and the robot.
• When used at high or low temperatures, the robot will automatically reduce its charging speed to extend battery life.
• The charging contacts may be dirty. Wipe them with a dry cloth.
• There are too many obstacles near the charging dock. Move it to an open area.
• The robot is too far from the charging dock. Place it closer and retry.
• Restart the robot.
• The main brush, side brush, main wheels, or omni-directional wheel may be jammed. Turn off the robot and clean them.
• WiFi is disabled. Reset the WiFi and try again.
• The WiFi signal is poor. Move the robot to an area with good WiFi reception.
• Abnormal WiFi connection. Reset the WiFi, download the latest mobile app, and retry.
• The current Roborock robot is not supported. You can find supported models in the app.
• Unable to connect to WiFi abruptly. There may be an error with your router settings. Contact Roborock customer
service for additional support.
• The dustbin is full and needs emptying.
• The filter is blocked and needs cleaning.
• The main brush is jammed and needs cleaning.
• Keep the robot charged. Scheduled cleaning can only begin when the battery level is above 20%.
• The robot will draw power while it is docked to maintain battery performance, but power consumption is minimal.
• No. The robot can be used any time after it has been fully charged.
• Make sure that the robot is not in DND mode. DND mode will prevent cleanup. When cleaning a space requiring a
top-up charge, if the robot was placed manually on the charging dock before it returned to the dock automatically,
it will not be able to continue cleanup.
• After spot cleaning or a significant position change, the robot will re-generate the map. If the charging dock
is too far away, it may not be able to return to recharge and must be placed on the charging dock manually.
• The wall sensor or cliff sensors may be dirty. Wipe them with a soft dry cloth.
