6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Vexilar W8, refer to the following common solutions:

Robot not charging: Ensure the charging base is properly plugged in and has 1m clear space on sides and 2m in front. Check that the robot's charging contacts align with the base.
Robot getting stuck frequently: Clear small obstacles from the cleaning path. The robot can overcome obstacles up to 15mm. Ensure furniture is not too low for the 7.8cm height of the robot.
App connection issues: Verify your Wi-Fi is 2.4 GHz. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone. Try resetting the robot's Wi-Fi by holding both buttons for 5 seconds.
Poor cleaning performance: Empty the dustbin, clean the main and side brushes, and check/replace HEPA filters. Ensure the water tank is filled for mopping.
Unusual noise: Check for any foreign objects tangled in the brushes or wheels. Clean the brushes thoroughly.
