This article offers basic setup instructions to get you started with your new Roomba® Mini Robot + AutoEmpty™ Dock!
1. Remove the protective film from the camera and the foam inserts from behind the bumper.
2. Install the Edge-Sweeping Brush. Align the Edge-Sweeping Brush and press down until you hear a click.
3. Place your dock on a hard and level surface flooring.
NOTE: Do not place it in direct sunlight. Ensure the area around the dock is free of clutter to improve docking performance.
WARNING: To prevent the risk of your robot falling down stairs, ensure that your dock is placed at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) away from stairs.
4. Plug in your dock. Plug the power cord of the dock into the wall. Wrap the cord back so it won’t get in the way of the robot as it comes and goes.
5. Wake up the robot. Place your robot in front of the dock, then slide it toward the dock, lining up the metal charging contacts. Its lights will indicate that it’s waking up. A sound will let you know it’s fully awake.
NOTE: Your robot comes with a partial charge, but we recommend that you charge the robot for 6 hours prior to mapping your home.
6. Download the "Roomba® Home App"
. Find the "Roomba® Home App" in your app store.
The app will guide you through the steps to set up your robot.
Once your robot is set up in the app, you’ll be able to:
- Control when, where, and how you clean
- Create automatic cleaning schedules
- Set custom cleaning preferences
- Unlock digital features
- Access to tips, tricks, and answers to commonly asked questions
NOTE: 2.4 or 5 GHz Wi-Fi® must be used.
