Problem
The robot does not
respond when I press
one of the buttons.
The warning indicator
flashes quickly.
The robot does not clean
properly.
Possible cause
The robot's rechargeable
battery is empty'.
One or both wheels are
stuck.
One or both side brushes are
stuck.
The top cover is not present
or is not closed properly.
The bumper is stuck.
The robot was lifted while it
was cleaning.
The bristles of one or both
side brushes are crooked or
bent.
The filter in the dust
container is dirty.
The suction opening in the
bottom of the dust container
is clogged.
The front wheel is jammed
with hair or other dirt.
The robot is cleaning a very
dark or shiny surface, which
triggers the drop-off sensors.
This causes the robot to
move in an unusual pattern.
Solution
Place the robot on the plugged-in
docking station. After a few seconds, the
robot beeps and the display lights up.
Remove the fluff, hair, thread or wire that
is caught around the wheel suspension.
Clean the side brushes (see chapter
'Cleaning and maintenance').
When the top cover is not present or is
not closed properly, the robot does not
work. Place the top cover on the robot
properly.
Lift the robot so that its bumper comes
free. Place the robot at some distance
from the obstacle and press the
start/stop button to make it resume
cleaning.
Place the robot on the floor. Then press
the start/stop button to make the robot
resume cleaning.
Soak the brush or brushes in warm water
for a while. If this does not restore the
bristles to their proper shape, replace the
side brushes (see chapter 'Replacement').
Clean the filter in the dust container with
a cloth or a toothbrush with soft bristles.
You can also clean the filter and dust
container with a regular vacuum cleaner
at a low suction power setting.
If brushing or vacuuming does not help to
clean the filter, replace the filter with a
new one. We advise you to replace the
filter at least once a year.
Clean the suction opening (see chapter
'Cleaning and maintenance').
Clean the front wheel (see chapter
'Cleaning and maintenance').
Press the start/stop button and then
move the robot to a lighter colored piece
of the floor. If the problem continues to
occur on lighter colored floors, please go
to www.philips.com/support or contact
the Consumer Care Center in your
country.
