EN
At the end of a cleaning cycle or when Roomba’s battery is running low, it returns
to the Home Base
®
to charge. Roomba needs to find the infrared signal of the
Home Base
®
in order to return.
• Always keep the Home Base plugged in. When the Home Base is plugged
in, its power light blinks to indicate the Home Base is connected to the
power source.
• If Roomba returns to the Home Base and is unable to dock, it will try again
until it docks successfully.
• When Roomba makes a connection and docks successfully, the Home
Base power light stops blinking and turns solid green.
• Within a minute of docking, Roomba goes to sleep with just the battery light
illuminated to show charging status.
Home Base Location
Position the Home Base on a hard, level surface against a wall. Make sure it’s at least
four feet (1.2 meters) from any stairs and that Roomba has a clear path to reach it.
Home Base
®
Do not place the Home Base within four feet (1.2 meters) of a stairwell.
