A little regular care goes a long way.
Dust, hair and residue can affect airflow, movement, navigation and mopping. Your exact schedule should come from the model manual and app maintenance counter; use this as a general starting point only.
- After a run: empty the bin if needed; rinse or clean mop pads as directed
- Weekly: remove hair from brushes and wheels; inspect the filter
- Monthly: wipe sensors and charging contacts with the method the maker recommends
- As prompted: replace worn consumables and empty or replace dock bags
Maintenance checklist
Brushes and rollers
Power the robot off before removing accessible brush parts. Cut away wrapped hair carefully without nicking bristles, rubber rollers or seals. Replace parts when worn or when the maker's schedule says to.
Filters and dust bins
Empty the bin before it becomes packed. Clean filters only by the method specified for your model. Paper and some HEPA-style filters must not be rinsed.
Sensors and charging points
Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth unless the manufacturer specifies another method. Avoid sprays and excess moisture around electronics.
Mop systems and docks
Empty dirty-water tanks, clean trays and wash pads as directed. Use only approved cleaning solution; household chemicals can damage seals or internal components.
