About Your Automatic Dirt Disposal
While cleaning, your robot will automatically return to the dirt
disposal to empty its bin and recharge as needed.
The dirt disposal’s LED indicator will turn solid red when a new
bag is needed. If a clog is detected, the dirt disposal will trigger
additional attempts to automatically clear the clog.
Note:
If you place your robot on the dirt disposal by hand, it will
not empty automatically. In this case, use the iRobot Home App or
the button on your robot to manually empty your robot's bin.
Using Your Automatic Dirt Disposal
Troubleshooting
Your dirt disposal will tell you if something is wrong via an LED indicator on
the front of the canister and through the iRobot Home App.
This product has been equipped with a thermal protector designed to
protect against damage due to overheating. If the protector operates,
the motor will stop running. If this happens, unplug the unit, allow to cool
for 30 minutes, clear any obstructions from the evacuation port and
evacuation tube, and plug the unit back in.
