BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Because rechargeable batteries have a limited life span, you will 
need to replace the batteries periodically. How long the batteries 
last depends how you use your Botvac. You may have to replace 
your battery after 6 months if the runtime degrades.  Every time 
the battery goes through a charge and discharge cycle it loses 
some capacity.

Higher temperatures also affect battery life. It is recommended 
you try to place your Botvac in a cool, shaded part of your home 
to reduce heat.

Replacement batteries for your Botvac can be found at one of our 
partner’s websites. Go to

return to the charge 
base to recharge. 
When the robot is 
done charging it will 
return to where it left 
off to finish cleaning.

Let the robot return 
to the charge base

already on the charge
