Important Safety 

Instructions

With the exception of the mopping 

cloth, do not immerse any part of 

Bob into water or other liquids. 

Do not mutilate or incinerate the 

battery, as it will explode at high 

temperatures. 

Do not use Bob outdoors.

Do not expose Bob, his charging 

station,  or  remote  control  to 

temperatures higher than 113° F 

(45° C), moisture, or humidity.

Flip Bob’s power switch OFF and remove him from 

a power source when you are not using him and 

before conducting maintenance.

Bob is not intended for use by persons (including 

children)  with  reduced  physical  or  mental 

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, 

unless  under  the  close  supervision  of  a  person 

responsible for their safety.

Leaks  from  the  battery  cells  can  occur  under 

extreme  usage  or  temperature  conditions.  If  the 

liquid gets on the skin, wash quickly with water. If 

the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately 

with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes, and 

seek medical attention.

Bob is composed of electronic components that in 

rare and unintended cases can cause hazards of 

heating, fire, and other malfunctions. Furthermore, 

because Bob is capable of autonomous movement, 

his use poses the risk of collision with property, pets, 

and  persons.  Unintended  removal  of  articles  — 

such as small valuables, jewelry, or hair of persons 

or pets lying on the floor — may also occur.

If  Bob,  his  remote  control,  charging  station,  or 

blOck  Plus™  has  been  damaged  in  any  way,  do 

not operate them. Contact our helpful support team 

at support@bobsweep.com or 1-888-549-8847.

Do not dispose of your battery 

in fire. Old batteries should be 

recycled  safely  through  your 

local recycler.

Do not let Bob pick up anything 

that  is  burning  or  smoking, 

such  as  cigarettes,  matches, 

or hot ashes.

Do  not  handle  Bob,  his 

FullCommand™ remote, charging 

station,  or  blOck  Plus™  with  wet 

hands; use only on dry surfaces. 

Do  not  pull  or  carry  the  charging 

station  by  the  cord,  use  the  cord 

as a handle, close a door on the 

cord, or pull the cord around sharp 

edges  or  corners.  Keep  the  cord 

away  from  heated  surfaces.  To 

unplug  the  cord,  grasp  the  plug, 

not the cord.

Do  not  attempt  to  open  the 

charging  station.  Repairs  on  the 

station should only be carried out 

by our qualified technicians.
