5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your ILIFE V8s, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Robot not charging: Ensure the charging adapter is securely plugged into both the docking station and the power outlet. Verify that the robot's charging contacts are clean and properly aligned with the dock.
• Robot getting stuck: Clear cables, small objects, and loose rugs from the cleaning path. The robot is designed for low-pile carpets; high-pile carpets may cause issues.
• Poor suction: Empty the dustbin and clean the filters. Check the suction inlet for any blockages.
• Mopping not effective: Ensure the water tank is filled and the mop pad is clean and properly attached. Check the water output settings on the remote control.
