Problem
The robot is moving in
circles.
The robot cannot find the
docking station.
Possible cause
The robot is in spot-cleaning
mode.
There is not enough room for
the robot to navigate towards
the docking station.
The robot is still actively
searching.
The robot was not started from
the docking station.
Solution
This is normal behavior. The spot-
cleaning mode can be activated when a
lot of dirt is detected on the floor for a
thorough clean. It is also part of the auto
cleaning mode. After approximately one
minute the robot resumes its normal
cleaning pattern. You can also stop the
spot-cleaning mode by selecting a
different cleaning mode on the remote
control.
FC8715, FC8710, FC8705: You can also
stop the spot-cleaning mode by
selecting a different cleaning mode on
the remote control.
Try to find another place for the docking
station. See 'Installing the docking
station' in chapter 'Preparing for use'.
Give the robot around 20 minutes to
return to the docking station.
If you want the robot to return to the
docking station after a cleaning run, start
it from the docking station.
