Home Base - iRobot Roomba Owner's Manual

Home Base

Use the Home Base
At the end of a cleaning cycle or when Roomba's battery is running low, it returns
to the Home Base to charge. Roomba needs to fi nd the infrared signal of the
Home Base in order to return.
• Always keep the Home Base plugged in. When the Home Base is fi rst
plugged in, its power light turns on momentarily to indicate the Home Base is
connected to the power source.
• If Roomba returns to the Home Base and is unable to dock, it will try again
until it docks successfully.
• When Roomba makes a connection and docks successfully, the Home Base
power light momentarily turns solid green. Within a minute of docking, Roomba
goes to sleep, turning off all lights, while continuing to charge the battery.
Home Base Location
Position the Home Base on a hard, level surface against a wall. Make sure it's at least
four feet (1.2 meters) from any stairs and that Roomba has a clear path to reach it.
Do not place the Home Base within four feet (1.2 meters) of a stairwell.
