Dirt and dust on Bob’s wall and edge sensors can reduce his performance. Bob’s wall 

sensors are located along his bumper, and his edge sensors are located on his underside. 

Regularly cleaning these sensors ensures that Bob keeps working at his best.

To do so:

    Wipe the wall and edge sensors using a soft cloth slightly dampened with cold 

    water or alcohol.
