Position the Charging Dock

Keep the charging dock on a level surface, flat against a wall. Connect the power cable to the charging dock and tidy cables from the floor. To ensure a better user experience of the mobile app, place the charging dock in an area with good WiFi coverage.

B1-1 More than 0.5m (1.6ft) B1-2 More than 1.5m (4.9ft)

Notes :

  • Allow at least 0.5m (1.6ft) of clearance on each side, and more than 1.5m (4.9ft) in front of the charging dock.
  • If the power cable hangs vertical to the ground, it may be caught by the robot, causing the charging dock to be disconnected.
  • The charging dock indicator is on when the charging dock is electrified, and off when the robot is charging.
  • Do not place the charging dock in places that are directly exposed to sunlight, or block the location beacon. Otherwise the robot may not be able to automatically return to the charging dock.
