GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Grounding methods. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.

Battery and Charging

• Do not wipe the charging contacts with a wet cloth or wet hands.
• If the product is left unused for a long period, store it in a cool, dry place after having it fully charged, unplugged, and switched off. Recharge it at least every three months to avoid battery overdischarge.
• Do not use the product when the temperature is higher than 40°C (104°F) or lower than 4°C (39°F), or if there is any liquid or sticky substance on the floor.
• Do not discard waste batteries. Leave them with a professional recycling organisation.
• To transport the product, be sure to unplug the dock, switch off the robot, and empty water tanks. In addition, drain and rinse the cleaning solution cartridge, leave it air dry completely, and then reinstall it. Use of the original packaging is advised.
• Be sure that the supply voltage meets the requirements listed on the dock.

Installation

• B1-1—Remove cords, hard or sharp objects (such as nails and glass), and loose items from the floor. Also, relocate unstable, fragile, valuable, or hazardous items (such as balls, scissors, knives, electrical appliances, medicines, toxic substances, glass, porcelain, liquid-filled containers, and lit candles) to prevent injury or damage due to items becoming tangled in, struck by, dragged, knocked over, picked up, or dropped upon pickup by the robot.
• B1-2—When using the robot in a raised area (such as in a duplex apartment), always use a physical security barrier to prevent personal injury or property damage caused by accidental falls of the robot or the object picked up by the robotic arm.

Notes:

• When using the robot for the first time, follow it throughout its whole cleaning route and watch for potential problems. The robot will be able to clean by itself in future uses.
• To prevent excessive buildup of dirt on the mop cloths, floors should be vacuumed at least three times before the first mopping cycle.

B2- Assembly

• B2-1—Attach the dock base by pressing down both sides of the base and the connecting part in the middle firmly until you hear a click.
  Note: When moving the dock, secure the water tanks to prevent them from falling off.
• B2-2—Connect the power cord to the back of the dock, and the power cord can exit at either the left or right cord slot opening.
• B2-3—Align and install the mop axles into the robot in place until you hear a click.

B3 Positioning the Dock

Place the dock on a hard, flat floor (wood/tile/concrete etc.), flat against a wall, and reserve a space of at least 0.75 m (2.46 ft) in height, 0.4 m (1.31 ft) in width and 1.2 m (3.94 ft) in depth. Make sure that the location has good WiFi coverage for a better experience with the mobile app. Plug in and make sure that the status indicator light is on.

• B3-1—More than 1.2 m (3.94 ft)
• B3-2—More than 0.75 m (2.46 ft)
• B3-3—More than 0.4 m (1.31 ft)

Notes:

• If the power cord hangs vertically to the ground, it may be caught by the robot, causing the dock to be moved or disconnected.
• The status indicator light is on when the dock is powered on, and off when the robot is charging.
• The status indicator light turns red if an error occurs.
• Place the dock on a hard, flat floor away from fire, heat, and water. Avoid narrow spaces or locations where the robot may be suspended in the air.
• Placing the dock on a soft surface (carpet/mat) may cause the dock to tilt and cause docking and departing problems.
• Keep the dock away from direct sunlight or anything that may block the dock location beacon; the robot may fail to return to the dock.
• Do not use the dock without a clean water tank, a dirty water tank, a dust container cover, a disposable dust bag, a cleaning solution cartridge, or a cleaning tray module.
• Maintain the dock according to the Routine Maintenance. Do not clean the dock power cord and charging contacts with a wet cloth or tissue.
• All docks are subject to water-based tests before leaving the factory. It is normal that a small amount of water remains in the waterway of the dock.

Connecting to the App

1. Download the App
   Search for “Roborock” in the App Store or Google Play or scan the QR code to download and install the app.
2. Reset WiFi
   Pressandhold and simultaneously until you hear the “Resetting WiFi” voice message. The reset is complete when the robot’s status indicator light flashes slowly. The robot will then wait for a connection.

Notes: If you cannot connect to the robot due to your router configuration, a forgotten password, or any other reason, reset the WiFi and add your robot as a new device.

Add Device

Open the Roborock app, tap the “Add Device” or “+” button and add your device following the in-app guide.

Notes:

• The actual process may vary due to ongoing app updates. Follow the guide provided in the app.
• Only 2.4 GHz WiFi is supported.
• If the robot waits more than 5 minutes for a connection, WiFi will be automatically disabled. If you want to reconnect, reset the WiFi before proceeding.

Instructions for Use

C1 Filling the Clean Water Tank

Lift the clean water tank, open its lid, and then fill it with tap water. After filling, close the lid, lock the latch, and then put the clean water tank back to the dock.

Notes:

• To avoid deformation, only use cold water.
• If any water stains remain on the outside of the water tank, wipe them with a soft, dry cloth before reinstalling the tank.
• To prevent damage, do not add any disinfectant in the clean water tank. To prevent a high concentration of cleaning solution, add solution only to the cleaning solution cartridge.

C2 Adding Cleaning Solution

1. Remove the dust container cover, pull out the entire cleaning solution cartridge by its bottom handle, and then place it on a hard, flat surface.
   Note: To prevent the dust container cover from falling and hitting the robot, remove the cover with both hands, one on each side.
2. Open the lid of the cartridge and add cleaning solution.
3. Close the lid and put the cartridge back to the dock. Press the cartridge until you hear it lock with a click.
4. Install the dust container cover in place to make sure the dust container is securely sealed.

Notes:

• Make sure that the cleaning solution cartridge is entirely removed before adding cleaning solution.
• To prevent damage, do not use any disinfectant and only use the cleaning solution recommended by Roborock in the solution cartridge.
• After adding, the robot will automatically add cleaning solution to the water for mop washing and robot water tank refilling according to the preset ratio to ensure optimal mopping performance.
• A cleaning solution is not included in the package. Purchase one if needed.
• If no floor cleaning solution is used daily, you may skip this step or disable Smart Cleaning Solution Filling in the app.

Error

If an error occurs, the power indicator light will flash red or the status indicator light will be steady red. A pop-up notification will appear in the app and a voice alert may sound.

Notes:

• The robot will go to sleep automatically if left in a malfunctioning state for over 10 minutes.
• Placing a malfunctioning robot on the dock manually will end the current cleanup.

Resetting the System

If the robot does not respond when a button is pressed or cannot be turned off, reset the system by removing the magnetic top cover and pressing the Reset button.

NOTE: After resetting the system, existing settings such as scheduled cleaning and WiFi will be restored to factory settings.
