How often should I empty the 

dustbin? 

Bob’s dustbin has a 1100 mL capacity — larger 

than  most  robot  vacuums  on  the  market. 

Depending on the size of the room and the 

amount of debris piled up, Bob may be able to 

perform up to 6 cleaning cycles before filling 

his  dustbin.  Simply  remove  the  dustbin  and 

check to see if emptying is necessary.

Quick Start

FAQs

How do I know that Bob is 

fully charged and ready to 

clean? 

When Bob is charging, the battery bars on his 

display screen flash and the word “charging” 

is lit. When Bob is fully charged, the battery 

bars remain still and the word “charging” is no 

longer lit.

How often should I clean 

Bob’s brushes?

To maximize Bob’s efficiency, it is best to clean 

his brushes about once a week. Remember 

to also clean the notches inside Bob that hold 

the brushes in place.

Bob is having trouble finding 

his charging station.

First, sync the charging station. Start by flipping 

Bob’s power switch OFF. Then, hold down the 

SYNC button on the back of the station and flip 

Bob’s power switch ON. Bob will chirp twice 

to  confirm  the  sync  was  successful.  If  after 

syncing the station Bob is still having trouble 

finding it, relocate the station to a more easily 

accessible location with more space around 

it. Make sure the station is against a wall on a 

flat, level surface.

Bob just stopped cleaning 

and his screen turned off. 

What do I do next?

Bob  may  be  in  standby  mode.  If  this  is  the 

case,  pressing  any  button  on  his  cover  or 

FullCommand™  remote  should  wake  him. 

If  this  does  not  work,  his  battery  is  likely 

completely drained. Place Bob on his charging 

station and allow him to fully charge.

I am having problems 

removing Bob’s brushes.

Unscrew the brushes and gently wriggle them 

while  pulling  up.  Do  not  force  the  brushes 

out, as this can damage them. You may use 

scissors to cut away entanglements of hair, or 

tweezers to unclog the notches inside Bob. It 

is best to clean Bob’s brushes about once a 

week to prevent buildup.

Why is Bob beeping?

Bob beeps periodically while in standby mode. 

You  may  mute  his  beeping  by  pressing  the 

MUTE button on his cover or FullCommand™ 

remote. To conserve his battery, flip his power 

switch OFF when he is not in use.

Bob  also  beeps  when  he  encounters  a 

problem and needs assistance. In addition to 

beeping,  he  will  display  a  trouble  message. 

Consult  the  Troubleshooting  section  of  this 

manual for solutions.

My Bob won’t turn on no 

matter what I do.

First, make sure Bob’s power switch is turned 

ON. The power switch is located on Bob’s left 

side. If Bob’s power switch is turned ON and 

he is not responding to his cover buttons, then 

his battery has likely drained too low for him 

to operate.  Place Bob on his charging station 

and allow him to fully charge.
