Wednesday TurboIMPORTANT ITEMS Keep your robot away from liquids and wet areas. Move or cover pet bowls and plant trays. Clear the area of small items like toys and clothing. Tie up wires, curtains and other low-hanging items. Thick carpet on top stair may affect the robot’s navigation system (top stair with low- pile carpet is OK). To make sure your robot sees the drop, place boundary markers 6 inches/15cm from the edge of the stair. Keep your Neato inside the house. It was not designed for outdoor cleaning or freezing temperatures. In MANUAL Clean, the only active sensors are the front drop sensors. Because you direct the robot yourself, you can run it into things without the robot stopping. Be careful if you drive the robot backwards as it could fall off of your stairs or cliff if you don’t stop it. Tips To keep your robot out of places you don’t want it to go, set down boundary markers included in the package. You can use scissors to cut boundary markers to a shorter length. You can use removable tape such as gaffer tape or painters’ tape to keep boundary markers flat on the floor. To put Neato to sleep, press and hold the button for 2 seconds and the light on the screen will go off. To do a Reset of the Neato robot, press and hold the button for 15 seconds and all the lights and the screen will turn off. The robot will automatically turn back on. The combo brush offers superior pick-up of pet hair, reduced noise during operation, and is ideal for homes with multiple types of flooring. The spiral blade brush offers superior cleaning performance across all floor surfaces. If you do not plan to use your Neato for an extended period, push the power switch inside the dirt bin UP to power it off. Shiny surfaces and black floors might cause navigation issues.

This means checking/ cleaning the brushes and emptying the dirt bin after every use or as needed, depending on your environment. Failure to do this may cause problems with your robot and impact your robot’s performance and possibly warranty coverage. Sensors Robot Top Use a dry cotton swab to clean the two drop sensor windows on the bottom of the robot. Clean the top of the robot and the area around the laser top with a damp cotton cloth. Dirt Bin and Filters After each use, empty the dirt bin, clean the airways/openings and filter. To remove the filter, pinch the handle and pull out. Use the cleaning tool comb to clean the filter. Brushes Replace the filter every 1 to 2 months or more frequently as needed. Remove the guard over the brush by pulling up on both sides.
