Product Information
Full details
The iRobot Roomba Plus 405 Combo Robot is designed for busy homeowners seeking a comprehensive, automated cleaning solution that vacuums and mops. Its key benefit is the hands-free operation provided by the AutoWash™ Dock, which handles debris disposal, mop washing, and drying for extended periods. A potential caveat is the learning curve associated with customizing advanced features through the app.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
How often does the AutoWash™ Dock need attention?
The dock can empty debris for up to 75 days. You will need to empty the dirty water tank and refill the clean water reservoir periodically, typically after each mopping cycle or every few days depending on usage. The app will notify you when attention is needed.
Can I use my own cleaning solution?
It is recommended to only use iRobot-approved cleaning solutions. Using other products may damage the robot or the dock, and could void your warranty.
How does the robot avoid carpets when mopping?
The Roomba Plus 405 Combo features an Automatic Pad Lift technology. When it detects a carpet or rug, the mop pads are automatically lifted to prevent the carpet from getting wet.
What is the battery life of the robot?
The battery life varies based on cleaning mode and environment. The robot is designed to automatically recharge and resume cleaning if power runs low during a cleaning cycle.
Can I schedule cleanings for specific rooms?
Yes, using the Roomba Home App, you can create custom cleaning schedules for specific rooms or 'Clean Zones' within your home. You can also set preferences for suction power and number of passes for each area.
What maintenance is required for the mop pads?
The AutoWash™ Dock automatically washes and dries the DualClean™ Mop Pads between cleaning cycles, ensuring they are refreshed and ready for the next use. You will need to replace the mop pads periodically as they wear out.
Does the robot work in low light conditions?
Yes, the ClearView™ LiDAR navigation allows the robot to map and clean methodically even in low light conditions.
Troubleshooting
Robot not returning to the dock
Ensure the dock is properly powered and has a clear path. Check for obstructions around the dock and robot's charging contacts. Restart both the robot and the dock.
Mop pads not getting clean
Ensure the clean water reservoir is full and the dirty water tank is empty. Check the dock's internal mechanism for any blockages. Use the recommended cleaning solution.
Robot gets stuck frequently
Review the home map in the app for any incorrectly identified obstacles or zones. Clear the robot's path of small objects, cords, or high-pile rug fringes. Update the robot's firmware.
Poor suction power
Empty the dustbin. Clean or replace the filter. Check the robot's brushes and edge-sweeping brush for tangled debris and clean them.
App not connecting to the robot
Verify your Wi-Fi connection. Ensure the robot is powered on and within Wi-Fi range. Restart the Roomba Home App and the robot. Re-pair the robot if necessary.
