FAQs
How long does the base station hold debris?
Depending on home size and usage, the base station is designed to store debris for up to 60 days.
Can the robot detect carpet while mopping?
Yes, the PowerDetect sensors automatically identify carpeted areas and will lift the mopping module to prevent wetting rugs.
What is the function of the 85°C water?
The high-temperature water is used in the base station to sanitize the mop pad, effectively killing bacteria and removing stubborn residue.
Does it work in the dark?
The robot uses LiDAR and advanced sensors, allowing it to navigate and clean effectively even in low-light conditions.
How often should I replace the mop pad?
With regular use of the self-cleaning base, the pad is designed for long-term use; however, replace it if you notice physical wear or diminished cleaning performance.
Troubleshooting
Robot failing to dock correctly
Ensure the base station is placed on a hard, level surface and there are no obstructions blocking the signal path.
Mop pad not cleaning effectively
Check the water reservoir in the base and ensure the pad is correctly attached to the mount.
Navigation or mapping errors
Perform a hard reset by holding the dock and clean buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds, then re-map the area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup begins with placing the ThermaCharged base on a flat surface with at least 0.5 meters of clearance on either side for optimal docking. Once connected to the companion app, the robot will initiate a 'Pre-Scan' to map the home. Compatibility is managed via the mobile app, which allows you to define 'No-Go' zones and schedule specific room cleanings. To maintain the system, ensure the base is plugged into a dedicated outlet and check the dust bin and water tanks monthly, even though the self-maintenance features handle the bulk of the work. Periodically wipe the robot's sensors with a dry microfiber cloth to ensure navigation accuracy.
