Installation

Important Information

1. Tidy cables and loose items from the ground and move any unstable, fragile, precious, or dangerous items to prevent personal injury or property damage due to items becoming tangled in, struck by, or knocked over by the robot.
2. When using the robot in a raised area, always use a secure physical barrier to prevent accidental falls that may result in personal injury or property damage.

Note: When using the robot for the first time, follow it throughout its whole cleaning route and watch for potential problems. The robot will be able to clean by itself in future uses.

B1 Position the Charging Dock

Keep the charging dock on a level surface, flat against a wall. Connect the power cable to the charging dock and tidy cables from the floor. To ensure a better user experience of the mobile app, place the charging dock in an area with good WiFi coverage.

• B1-1: More than 0.5m (1.6ft) clearance on each side.
• B1-2: More than 1.5m (4.9ft) clearance in front.

Notes:

• Allow at least 0.5m (1.6ft) of clearance on each side, and more than 1.5m (4.9ft) in front of the charging dock.
• If the power cable hangs vertically to the ground, it may be caught by the robot, causing the charging dock to be disconnected.
• The charging dock indicator is on when the charging dock is electrified, and off when the robot is charging.
• Do not place the charging dock in places directly exposed to sunlight, or block the location beacon. Otherwise, the robot may not be able to automatically return to the charging dock.

B2 Attach the Moisture-Proof Mat

After fixing the charging dock in place, use a dry cloth to clean the area where the Moisture-Proof Mat will be located. Tear off the double-sided tape at the bottom of the Moisture-Proof Mat, and stick the mat on the floor.

Notes:

• Always place the Moisture-Proof Mat on wooden floors.
• The Moisture-Proof Mat attaches best to smooth surfaces.
• When necessary, remove the double-sided adhesive tape slowly to reduce residue glue.

Power On and Charge the Robot

Press and hold the power button to turn on the robot. When the power light goes on, place it on the dock to charge. To maintain the performance of the high-performance lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack, keep the robot charged.

Note: The robot may not turn on when the battery is low. In this case, place the robot directly onto the dock to charge.

B3 Mopping

Note: To prevent excessive dirt buildup during first-time use, floors should be vacuumed at least three times before mopping.

• B3-1: Remove the dustbin and water tank combo unit: Open the upper cover and take out the unit.
• B3-2: Fill the water tank: Remove the water tank stopper, fill the tank with water, and close it tightly.

Notes:

• To prevent corrosion or damage, only use the Roborock branded floor cleaner in the water tank.
• Do not use hot water as this may cause the tank to deform.
• When filling the water tank, tilt tank 30° to avoid wetting the filter.

• B3-3: Reinstall the dustbin and water tank combo unit: Reinstall the unit. It will click in place.
• B3-4: Install the mop cloth mount: Wet the mop cloth and wring it until it stops dripping, then slide it along the mop cloth slot before sticking it firmly in place.

Note: Only use the official Roborock mop cloth.

• B3-5: Install the mop cloth mount: Slide the mount forwards along the bottom of the robot until it clicks in place.

Note: Clean the mop cloth after 60 minutes of mopping to maintain water flow and cleaning quality.

• B3-6: Remove the mop cloth mount: When the robot returns to the dock after cleaning, press the latches on both sides, and slide the mop cloth mount backwards to remove it.

Notes:

• Wash the mop cloth after each use, and regularly empty the water tank of unused water.
• Remove the mop cloth mount when not mopping.

Instructions

On/Off

Press and hold the power button to turn on the robot. The power indicator will turn on and the robot will enter standby mode. Press and hold the power button to turn off the robot and complete the cleaning cycle.

Note: The robot cannot be turned off when it is being charged.

Starting Cleaning

Press the clean button to start cleaning. The robot will plan its cleaning route according to its scan of the room. It splits a room into zones, first draws out zone edges, and then fills the zone in a zigzag pattern. In doing so, the robot cleans all zones one by one, efficiently cleaning the house.

Diagram illustrating cleaning zones: Zone 1 Cleaned, Zone 2 Cleaned, Zone 4 Next Zone, Zone 3 In Progress.

Notes on Cleaning

• To allow the robot to automatically vacuum and return to the dock, start the robot from the dock. Do not move the dock during cleaning.
• Cleaning cannot start if the battery level is too low. Allow the robot to charge before starting cleanup.
• If cleaning is completed in less than 10 minutes, the area will be cleaned twice.
• If the battery runs low during the cleaning cycle, the robot will automatically return to the dock. After charging, the robot will resume where it left off.
• Before starting each mopping task, make sure that the mop cloth has been properly installed.

Spot Cleaning

Press the clean button to start spot cleaning. Cleaning range: The robot cleans a 1.5 m (4.9 ft) x 1.5 m (4.9 ft) square area centered on itself.

Note: After spot cleaning, the robot will automatically return to the starting point and enter Standby mode.

Pause

When the robot is running, press any button to pause it, press the clean button to resume cleaning, press the dock button to send it back to the dock.

Note: Placing a paused robot on the dock manually will end the current cleanup.

Sleep

If the robot is paused for over 10 minutes, it will go to sleep, and the power indicator will flash every few seconds. Press any button to wake the robot up.

Notes:

• The robot will not go to sleep when it is charging.
• The robot will automatically shut down if left in sleep mode for more than 12 hours.

DND Mode

The default Do Not Disturb (DND) period is from 22:00 to 08:00. You can use the app to disable the DND mode or modify the DND period. When DND mode is activated, the robot will not automatically resume cleanup, the power indicator light will dim, and the volume of the voice prompts will lower.

Child Lock

Press and hold the power button to enable/disable the child lock. You can also set it in the app. Once enabled, the robot will not react to button presses when it is stationary. When the robot is cleaning or docking, press any button to stop it.

Charging

After cleaning, the robot will automatically return to the dock to charge. In Pause mode, press the dock button to send the robot back to the dock. The power indicator will pulse as the robot charges.

Note: If the robot fails to find the dock, it will automatically return to its starting location. Place the robot on the dock manually to recharge.

Error

If an error occurs, the power indicator will flash red quickly, and a voice alert will sound. Refer to the following table for troubleshooting.

1. After resolving any of the following errors, relocate your robot and restart cleaning.

2. After any sensor errors, clean the sensor and retry.

3. If the battery is at an abnormal temperature, wait for it to return to normal before use.
