Troubleshooting Suggestions

 

1. Check whether both ends of the power adapter of the dock are plugged in.

2. Make sure the dock is placed on an even surface without any tilting. For the standard charging dock, check the bottom to prevent any foreign objects from causing uneven placement.

3. Ensure the LED indicators on both dock and robot vacuum change correctly.

4. Clean the charging contacts on the robot vacuum and the dock. Make sure the surface is free from any debris and the charging contacts are not stuck.
