5. Extended Cleaning
The 5200 mAh battery provides up to 210 minutes of runtime, covering up to 220m² on a single charge. If the battery runs low during a cleaning cycle, the robot will return to its station, recharge, and resume cleaning from where it left off.

Maintenance
1. Self-Cleaning Station
The all-in-one station automatically empties the dust bin into a 3.2L dust bag, washes the mops with 75°C hot water, and air-dries them. The dust bag needs replacement approximately every 120 days, depending on usage.

2. Mop Cleaning and Drying
The station washes the mops with 75°C hot water to effectively dissolve grease, oily residues, and dry dirt, ensuring clean mops after each cycle. The mops are then air-dried to prevent odors and bacteria.

Troubleshooting
- Robot not charging: Ensure the charging contacts on both the robot and the station are clean and free of debris. Verify the power cable is securely connected to the station and the outlet.
- Robot not starting/responding: Check if the battery is charged. If the robot is unresponsive, try restarting it by holding the power button. Ensure no objects are obstructing its movement.
- Poor cleaning performance: Clean the main brush, side brushes, and filter. Ensure the dust bin is not full. If mopping, check the water tanks and ensure mops are clean.
- Mapping issues: Ensure the environment is well-lit during the initial mapping process. Clear any temporary obstacles that might interfere with the laser navigation. If issues persist, try resetting the map in the app and re-mapping.
- App connectivity problems: Ensure your Wi-Fi network is stable and both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands are supported. Restart your router, smartphone, and robot. Re-pair the device in the app if necessary.
- Water leakage from station: Check all seals and connections of the water tanks. Ensure the dirty water tank is correctly seated and not overflowing. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
- Robot gets stuck frequently: Ensure the area is clear of small objects, cables, and loose rugs. Use the app to set forbidden zones for problematic areas.
