Troubleshooting

Please use this chart to troubleshoot common problems using DEEBOT.

No. Malfunction Possible Causes Solutions
1 DEEBOT will not charge. DEEBOT is not powered ON. Press and hold AUTO Mode Button on DEEBOT to power ON.
DEEBOT has not made a connection with the Charging Dock. Be sure that DEEBOT's Charging Contacts have made a connection with the Charging Dock Pins. You may move the robot manually to make the connection if necessary.
Charging Dock is unplugged while DEEBOT is powered ON, which causes battery consumption. Plug in the Charging Dock and ensure DEEBOT is powered ON. Keep DEEBOT on the Charging Dock to make sure it has a full battery to work at any time.
2 DEEBOT gets into trouble while working and stops. DEEBOT is tangled with something on the floor (electrical cords, drooping curtains, carpet fringe etc.). DEEBOT will try various ways to get itself out of trouble. If it is unsuccessful, manually remove the obstacles and restart.
Side Brush is stuck or the rotation speed of the Side Brush decreases. Remove the debris tangled around the Side Brush. If the Side Brush still rotates slowly, contact Customer Service.
Main Brush is stuck or the rotation speed of the Main Brush decreases. Remove the debris tangled around the Main Brush with the provided Multi-Function Cleaning Tool. If the Main Brush still rotates slowly, contact Customer Service.
3 DEEBOT returns to the Charging Dock before it finishes cleaning. When battery power gets low, DEEBOT automatically switches to Return to Charger Mode and returns to the Charging Dock to recharge itself. This is normal. No solution necessary.
Working time varies according to floor surface, room complexity and the selected Cleaning Mode. This is normal. No solution necessary.
4 DEEBOT will not clean automatically at scheduled time. Time Scheduling function is cancelled. Set Time Scheduling function as described in section 3.4.
DEEBOT is powered OFF. Power ON DEEBOT.
The robot's battery is low. Keep DEEBOT powered ON and on the Charging Dock to make sure it has a full battery to work at any time.
The robot's components are tangled with debris. Power OFF DEEBOT, clean the Dust Bin, and invert the robot. Clean Side Brushes and the Main Brush as described in section 4.
5 Remote Control failure (effective control range of Remote Control is 5m (16'). The batteries in the Remote Control need to be replaced. Replace with new batteries making sure they are installed correctly.
DEEBOT is powered OFF or DEEBOT's battery is low. Make sure DEEBOT is powered ON and fully charged.
The infrared signal cannot be transmitted because the Infrared Emitter on the Remote Control or DEEBOT's Infrared Receiver on DEEBOT is dirty. Use a dry cloth or the Multi-Function Cleaning Tool to wipe the Infrared Emitter on Remote Control and the Infrared Receiver on DEEBOT.
There is other equipment interfering with the infrared signal to DEEBOT. Avoid using the Remote Control near other equipment using infrared signals.
