Adjust Roomba Cleaning Power
- Identify the Roomba model you have, as not all models have adjustable cleaning power. Most modern Roombas come with features that allow for some customization.
- If your model has the iRobot HOME app compatibility, download and install the app on your smartphone. This app is available for both iOS and Android devices and helps manage settings remotely.
Using iRobot HOME App
- Open the iRobot HOME app and connect your Roomba by following the in-app instructions. Make sure your Roomba is powered on and within range of your Wi-Fi network.
- Once connected, navigate to the settings or cleaning preferences section within the app. Here, you should find options for power management, usually marked under ‘Cleaning Preferences’ or ‘Power Settings’.
- Select the desired cleaning power level. Most models offer options such as ‘Eco’, ‘Performance’, or ‘Balanced’. Adjust according to your cleaning needs - higher power levels are effective for deep cleaning, while lower levels save battery life.
Manual Adjustments
- If your Roomba does not support app-based adjustments, check the manual controls. Some models have a button marked with icons or words indicating different cleaning modes.
- Press the appropriate button to cycle through cleaning modes. Refer to your model's user manual for specific instructions if necessary.
Troubleshooting
- If power adjustments are not working or available, ensure your device's firmware is up-to-date. Connect to the iRobot HOME app and check for updates.
- Restarting the Roomba can resolve temporary issues. Turn off the Roomba, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
- If problems persist, contact iRobot customer support for further assistance. Provide them with details about your model and the issue you are experiencing.
