8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| DEEBOT does not start. | Low battery; Main power switch off. | Charge the robot fully; Ensure the main power switch (usually on the side or bottom) is in the 'ON' position. |
| DEEBOT gets stuck frequently. | Obstacles (cables, rugs); High-centered on uneven surfaces. | Clear the cleaning area of loose items. The D35 is designed for bare floors and may struggle with significant height differences or thick rugs. |
| Poor cleaning performance. | Full dustbin; Clogged filter; Worn side brushes. | Empty the dustbin; Clean or replace the filter; Clean or replace side brushes. |
| DEEBOT does not return to charging dock. | Charging dock obstructed; Robot too far from dock; Charging contacts dirty. | Ensure clear space around the charging dock; Manually place the robot near the dock; Clean charging contacts on both robot and dock. |
| Short battery life. | Battery degradation over time. | Battery life naturally decreases with usage. Consider replacing the battery if performance is significantly reduced. Contact customer support for replacement options. |
