Cleaning Pattern - iRobot Roomba Owner's Manual

Cleaning Pattern

Roomba cleans floors differently than the way most people do, using its robot intelligence
to efficiently clean the whole floor, under and around furniture and along walls.
As it cleans, Roomba calculates the optimal cleaning path and determines when to
use its various cleaning behaviours:
Spiralling
Roomba uses a spiral motion to clean a
concentrated area.
Room Crossing
Roomba criss-crosses the room to ensure full cleaning coverage.
Dirt Detection
When Roomba senses dirt, the white Dirt Detect™ light lights up and Roomba cleans
more intensely in that area.
For the most efficient cleaning, clear your floor of clutter and use a Virtual Wall
to confine Roomba to one room.
Wall Following
Roomba cleans the full perimetre of the
room and navigates around furniture and
obstacles.
