About your Automatic Dirt Disposal
While cleaning, your robot will automatically return to the dirt disposal to
empty its bin and recharge as needed.
The dirt disposal's LED indicator will turn solid red when a new bag is needed.
If a clog is detected, the dirt disposal will trigger additional attempts to
automatically clear the clog.
Note: If you place your robot on the dirt disposal by hand, it will not empty
automatically. In this case, use the iRobot HOME App or hold the button
down for 2-5 seconds.
