How iRobot Braava jet™ Cleans EN • Braava jet does not spray furniture or walls. Before the robot sprays, it will back up to ensure it’s only spraying a portion of the floor it knows is clear. • As Braava jet finds edges, chair legs, and other obstacles, it will clean around them and then return to its original path and resume cleaning. • After Braava jet has cleaned the entire space, it finishes the job by cleaning along edges, walls, furniture, and other obstacles a second time.
How iRobot Braava jet™ Cleans EN EN Creating an Invisible Barrier You can create an invisible barrier with the Virtual Wall® Mode so that the robot will avoid cleaning part of a room or a different floor type. • Begin with the robot powered off. When placing the robot, note that the invisible line will be created in line with the back of the robot. • To activate Virtual Wall Mode, start with a powered-off robot and press and hold the CLEAN button until two blue lines appear on the top of the robot.
Tips for Best Performance EN EN General Cleaning Tips • For best results, use a Dry Sweeping Pad or vacuum to pick up dirt and dust before running your robot with a Wet Mopping or Damp Sweeping Pad. • To pause your robot during a cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button. To resume the cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button again. • Do not pick up and move your robot while it is cleaning – the robot will end its cleaning run if you do.
