Indicator Light | Sound Prompt | Cause of Failure | Solutions |
---|---|---|---|
Solid Red Light | 3 beeps | Drive wheel anomaly | Please check if the drive wheel is tangled and clean it. |
6 beeps | Side brush anomaly | Please check if the side brush is tangled and clean it. | |
9 beeps | Fan anomaly | Please check for debris in the dust box and air duct. | |
15 beeps | Dust box not detected | Please install the dust box into the robot. | |
Flashing Red Light | 6 beeps | Ground detection alarm | The robot is suspended in the air. Please move it to the ground. |
9 beeps | Entrapment alarm | The robot cannot free itself from an obstacle; please move it to an open area. | |
12 beeps | Low battery | Move the robot to the docking station for charging. | |
15 beeps | Adapter anomaly | Clean the electrode and ensure you are using the original adapter. | |
Solid or Flashing Red Light | 18 beeps | Charging anomaly | Check if the machine is turned on. |
If the above methods do not resolve the issue, try restarting the robot by turning the ON/OFF button under the front panel off and then on again.
4.2 General Problem Solving
If you encounter the following problems, you can try to resolve them independently:
Fault | Possible Causes | Solutions |
---|---|---|
Cleaning Anomaly | Clogging of cleaning components | It is recommended to regularly replace consumables such as high-efficiency filters (HEPA), pre-filters, and side brushes. |
Dust on sensors and other components | Refer to the [Maintenance] chapter of this manual to clean the machine. | |
Cannot Connect to App | Wi-Fi pairing mode not activated | Press and hold the start/pause button for 3 seconds to enter Wi-Fi pairing mode. Refer to the [App Download and Configuration] chapter. |
2.4GHz network not being used | Refer to the [App Download and Configuration] chapter. | |
Difficult Return and Recharge | Incorrect positioning of the charging base | Position the charging base in an open and flat area. |
Charging base is off or has been manually moved | Verify the charging base is connected to power. Do not move the charging base position while the robot is operating. | |
House is too large and the environment is complex | Refer to the [Environment Preparation] chapter. If the home environment is too complex, consider using multiple charging bases. | |
Robot did not start cleaning from the docking station | Allow the robot to clean starting from the docking station. | |
Cannot Charge | Power adapter not connected or plug is loose | Check if both ends of the power adapter are connected and powered on normally. |
Poor contact between the robot and the charging electrode of the docking station | Ensure the robot's charging electrode and the docking station's charging base are fully connected and regularly clean the charging electrodes of both the robot and the docking station. | |
Battery deterioration due to prolonged disuse | It is recommended to use this product frequently. If the battery cannot be charged due to a long period of disuse, contact customer service. |
If a fault cannot be resolved based on the operations in the table, please contact our customer service representative.
