Roomba 800 Series Owner’s Manual 15
EN
Roomba cleans floors differently than the way most people do, using its robot intelligence
to efficiently clean the whole floor, under and around furniture and along walls.
As it cleans, Roomba calculates the optimal cleaning path and determines when to
use its various cleaning behaviors:
Room Crossing
Roomba crisscrosses the room to ensure full cleaning coverage.
Dirt Detection
When Roomba senses dirt, the Dirt Detect
™
light illuminates and Roomba
cleans more intensely in that area using a back-and-forth motion, similar to a
traditional vacuum.
Cleaning Pattern
For the most efficient cleaning, clear your floor of clutter and use a Virtual Wall
®
to confine Roomba to one room.
Spiraling
Roomba uses a spiral motion to clean a
concentrated area.
Wall Following
Roomba cleans the full perimeter of the
room and navigates around furniture and
obstacles.
