Roomba Home Base - iRobot Roomba Scheduler Service Manual

Roomba Home Base

The Roomba Home Base is a self-charging station where the Roomba (through a sophisticated
infrared tracking mechanism) can drive back to at the end of a clean cycle or when its battery is
low. After docking itself, the Roomba will recharge its battery. The charging sequence takes about
three hours with the fast APS power supply (grey) and six hours with the slow power supply
(black).
The power light on the Home Base tells you that it is plugged in and operating properly. This light
must be on and solid green for Roomba to charge. The dock light on the Home Base tells you that
Roomba is successfully docked and charging.
