Using Your Roomba
®
Robot Vacuum
Note:
Your robot comes with a partial charge, but we recommend that you
charge the robot on the Home Base for 3 hours prior to starting the first
complete cleaning cycle.
Note:
Remove excess clutter from floors before cleaning (e.g. clothing, toys, etc.).
Use your Roomba
®
robot vacuum frequently to maintain well-conditioned floors.
If the robot is returning to recharge after completing a cleaning cycle,
it will play a series of tones to indicate successful completion of the job.
• To pause the robot during a cleaning cycle, press CLEAN.
• To resume the cleaning cycle, press CLEAN again.
• To send the robot back to its Home Base during a cleaning cycle, press
CLEAN and then (Home) button on the robot or press CLEAN on the
iRobot HOME App main screen. This will end the cleaning cycle.
Note:
When the robot is returning to the Home Base, the (Home) button
will blink.
• The robot will automatically engage Dirt Detect™ mode when it
encounters a high concentration of dirt or debris. The robot will move
in a spiral motion to clean the area more thoroughly. The CLEAN
button will pulse when the robot engages Dirt Detect™ mode. When
finished, the robot will continue its cleaning job.
