Troubleshooting

Automatic Dirt Disposal

Your dirt disposal will tell you if something is wrong via an LED indicator on the front of the canister and through the iRobot Home App.

LED indicator Common error How to fix
Solid red Bag full or missing 1. Replace the bag if it is full or missing.2. Make sure that the bag is securely inserted.3. If problem persists, remove any debris from the port on the bottom of your robot and the dirt disposal.
Blinking red There is a leak or a clog in the dock evacuation path1. Make sure that the canister lid is pushed down and firmly sealed. Hold the CLEAN button on your robot down for 2-5 seconds to manually empty the bin.2. Remove any debris from the port on the bottom of your robot and dirt disposal.3. Unplug the dirt disposal from the wall. Place it on its side and inspect the debris evacuation tube for debris. If necessary, remove the tube to clear any debris.

This product has been equipped with a thermal protector designed to protect against damage due to overheating. If the protector operates, the motor will stop running. If this happens, unplug the unit, allow it to cool for 30 minutes, clear any obstructions from the evacuation port and evacuation tube, then plug the unit back in.

Robot

Your robot will tell you something is wrong by playing an audio alert and turning the light ring indicator red. Press CLEAN for details. Further support and instructional videos are available in the iRobot Home App.

If you are unsure if the robot is finished or paused, consult the iRobot Home App to check on its status.
