Troubleshooting

Your Roomba

®

 robot vacuum will tell you something is wrong with a two-

tone alert, a spoken message and a blinking troubleshooting indicator 

(

). Follow the audible instructions. More detailed support and videos, 

are available in the iRobot HOME App and at global.irobot.com.

To reboot your robot, press and hold the    (Home)  and           

(Spot Clean) 

buttons for 10 seconds until all indicators turn off, then release. When 

you release the buttons, you will hear a tone to confirm  

a successful reboot. 

 

 

Note:

 If you use the scheduling feature, open the iRobot HOME App  

after rebooting to confirm that the robot’s schedule remains intact.

Reduced Power Standby Mode

The Roomba

®

 robot vacuum uses a small amount of power whenever it 

is on the Home Base

®

 charging station. This ensures the robot is always 

ready for the next cleaning job and maintains Wi-Fi

®

 connectivity. You 

can put the robot in a further-reduced power state when not in use. For 

instructions and more details on this Reduced Power Standby Mode, 

refer to the iRobot HOME App.

Lithium Ion Battery

For best results, only use the iRobot Lithium Ion Battery that  

comes with your Roomba

®

 robot vacuum.
