Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for the optimal performance of your ECOVACS OZMO 601. Perform these steps regularly:
- Empty Dust Bin: Empty the dust bin after each cleaning cycle.
- Clean Filters: Tap the high-efficiency filter to remove dust. Replace filters every 3-6 months, or as needed.
- Clean Main Brush: Use the cleaning tool to remove hair and debris from the main brush. Replace every 6-12 months.
- Clean Side Brushes: Remove tangled hair and debris from the side brushes. Replace every 3-6 months.
- Clean Water Tank and Mopping Pad: After mopping, empty any remaining water from the tank and wash the mopping pad. Allow to air dry.
- Clean Sensors: Wipe the anti-drop sensors and obstacle detection sensors with a dry cloth to ensure proper function.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your ECOVACS OZMO 601, refer to the following common solutions:
- Robot not charging: Ensure the charging dock is powered on and the robot is correctly aligned with the charging pins. Clean the charging contacts on both the robot and the dock.
- Robot gets stuck frequently: Clear obstacles, loose cables, and thick rugs from the cleaning path. The robot may struggle with high thresholds or floor patterns that confuse its sensors.
- Poor cleaning performance: Empty the dust bin, clean or replace filters, and remove tangled hair from brushes. Ensure the water tank is filled for mopping.
- App connectivity issues: Ensure your robot is within Wi-Fi range and your router is functioning correctly. Try restarting both the robot and your Wi-Fi router. If issues persist, a full reset of the unit and re-pairing with the app may be necessary.
- Robot not returning to charging base: Ensure the charging dock is accessible and not blocked. The robot may have run out of battery far from the dock if cleaning a very large area.
