IMPORTANT!
Keeping Botvac clean is important for
optimum performance.
CLEANING THE FILTER
For optimal performance, empty the Botvac dirt bin and clean the
filter after every use.
1. Take out the dirt bin.
2. Remove the filter.
3. Empty the contents of the dirt bin into a garbage can. Tap the
filter against the garbage can to get rid of any excess dirt.
4. Replace the filter and make sure it is tight. Insert the dirt bin
back into the Botvac and make sure it is fully engaged.
Tip!
Change the filter in your Botvac every one to two
months. Factors that determine how often to change the filter
include: frequency of vacuuming, size of the area it is cleaning,
and the amount of dirt, debris and pet hair it picks up.

CLEANING THE BRUSH AND BEARING
Clean the brush frequently. Most hair and other debris are
captured in the dirt bin, but some may get tangled on the brush
and affect cleaning performance. To clean the brush, follow these
steps:
1. Turn your Botvac upside down.
2. Place your fingers under the brush guard in front of the wheels
and pull up gently under the brush guard until it pops out.
Remove the brush guard.
3. Gently take out the brush.
4. Remove any debris from the brush. Wipe the brush blades and
brush core with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust.
5. Remove the metal bearing on the end of the brush and clean
with a cloth. To remove the bearing, use your fingers, or a
small flat head screwdriver for tough to remove the bearing.
Re-attach the bearings to the brush.
6. Replace the brush by inserting the orange end cap with the
hexagon pattern into the motor-side, and the metal bearing
end closest to the wall side.
7. Replace the brush guard, and click it into place. Make sure it is
seated correctly in front behind the bumper and locked tightly
at the rear.
For optimal performance, replace the brush periodically, or if the
blades or bristles are damaged. You can find replacement brushes
through one of our partners. Go to
