Cleaning
• Cleaning Pattern: Your robot will automatically explore and clean your home
in neat rows, avoiding obstacles by using its front-facing camera. It will return
to the charging station at the end of a cleaning job and whenever it needs to
recharge or empty the bin.
• When your robot detects an especially dirty area, it will engage Dirt Detect™
mode, moving in a forward/backward motion to clean the area more
Your robot is able to recognize and avoid objects. However,
it is still recommended to remove excess obstacles before
cleaning.
