• If Roomba encounters an area of high debris concentration, it will move
in a forward/backward motion to clean the area more thoroughly. When
Roomba does this, you will see the Dirt Detect™indicator ( ) illuminate.
• To use SPOT Cleaning, place Roomba on top of the localized debris
and press (SPOT) on the robot. Roomba will intensely clean the
area by spiraling outward about 3 feet (1meter) in diameter and then
spiraling inward to where it started.
• When Roomba senses that its dust bin is full ( ), it is programed to
complete its cleaning cycle by default. You can adjust this setting under
Cleaning Preferences ( ) in the iRobot HOME App.
» Roomba won’t leave the Home Base for a cleaning cycle if its bin is
full. In this case, remove and empty the bin, then reinsert it before
starting or resuming a cleaning cycle.
Note: After each use, empty the bin and clean the filter.
• Always store Roomba on the Home Base so it’s charged and ready to
clean when you need it. Indicator lights will turn o after 60 seconds
to conserve energy while Roomba is charging. Check status of the
battery by pressing the CLEAN button to illuminate the Battery Indicator.
Indicator will appear amber while the battery is charging and solid
green when fully charged. Charging status can also be viewed in the
iRobot HOME app.
• If storing o of the Home Base, remove the battery first and then store
Roomba and the battery in a cool, dry place.

The Dual Mode Virtual Wall barrier keeps
Roomba in the places you want to be
cleaned— and out of the ones you don’t.
Inbetween cleaning cycles, you can leave the
device operating in its position on the floor.
Youcan set your device to one of two modes
tofit your home’s cleaning needs:
Note: Under normal use, batteries will last 8-10 months. If you are not planning on
using your Virtual Wall device for an extended period of time and you would like to
store it, be sure to switch it to the “O ” (middle) position.
Using Dual Mode Virtual Wall Barriers
(optional accessory for all models)
Virtual Wall Mode: When the switch is in the “up”
position ( ), the device functions as a Virtual
Wall. This means that you can set it to block
openings of up to 10 feet (3 meters). It creates
an invisible, cone-shaped barrier that only
Roomba can see.
Note: This barrier gets wider as it gets
further from the device (refer to illustration).
Halo Mode: When the switch is in the “down”
position ( ), the device creates a protective
zone that Roomba will not enter. This prevents
Roomba from bumping into items you want to
protect (e.g. a dog bowl or vase) or crossing
into undesired areas (e.g. a corner or under
a desk). The Halo is invisible and reaches
approximately 24 inches (60 centimeters)
from the center of the device.
