Virtual Walls - iRobot Roomba 500 Series Owner's Manual

Virtual Walls

The iRobot Roomba Virtual Walls create an invisible barrier that Roomba will
not cross. The Virtual Walls can be set to block an area ranging from zero to
eight feet (2.4m) long.
The Virtual Wall beam is keyhole shaped. A small halo prevents Roomba from
bumping into the Virtual Wall and a larger cone-shaped section blocks off
areas of your home where you don't want Roomba to go.
Battery Installation
The Virtual Wall requires 2 "D"
batteries and automatically
shuts off after 135 minutes.
If the power light blinks green,
the batteries will soon need
replacement.
Range Adjustment
Use the slider bar to adjust
the length of the barrier. A
higher range will drain the
battery faster.
TIP: Use the Virtual Walls to block doorways or to keep Roomba away from cords.
Confining Roomba to a single room will accelerate cleaning.
TIP: For best performance, place the Virtual Wall on the outside of the doorway
you wish to block. Set the Virtual Wall to the shortest setting possible to
extend battery life.

Virtual Walls are compatible with all 500 Series Roomba vacuuming robots.
