Battery and Charging Information

For best results, only use the iRobot Lithium Ion Battery that comes
with Roomba. While Roomba will operate with older-model batteries,
its performance will be limited.
Lithium Ion Battery
Important:
Lithium ion batteries and products that contain lithium ion
batteries are subject to stringent transportation regulations. If you need to

» Place a piece of tape over the battery's metal charging contacts
» Reinstall the battery (with the tape on it) in the product and secure
the battery door
» Package the product in its original packaging or in your own
packaging that prevents any movement during transportation

Battery Charging
To extend battery life, always keep Roomba charged on the
Home Base when not in use.
Problems While Charging
If Roomba encounters an error while charging, its troubleshooting
indicator ( ) will blink, and you will hear an audible charging error
message. Charging errors can sometimes occur with counterfeit
batteries. Check to ensure that you are using an authentic iRobot
Lithium Ion Battery and consult the iRobot HOME App or visit
global.irobot.com to troubleshoot these issues.
Battery Storage
If storing Roomba off of the Home Base, remove the battery first.
Then store Roomba and the battery in a cool, dry place.
Battery Disposal
Contact your local waste management authority for battery
recycling and disposal regulations in your area.
