Scooba Battery problems and Solutions

Scooba Battery issues & solutions

· Q 1 : irobot scooba is not releasing water from the clean water Tank

· A1 : the brushes are bent , pry them a little towards each other

· Q2: irobot scooba is leaving water on floor after the cleaning cycle

· A2 : fully charge the battery , and let it complete the cycle

           the problem may be in the Board or in the sensors

· Q4 : irobot scooba is not picking up any water and the dirty tank is dry

            shake it wel  , and then rinse is with fresh water

· Q5: irobot Scooba floor cleaner "check tank" light stays on and keeps beeping

· A5 : Flush out the solution valve with water (aka "prime the pump"). 

          Use water,Also, 

          rinse your tank through the four ports on the *underside*-- one round, 

          two oval, one large and  curved, all four in a row.

          Rinse them really thoroughly with warm water

 · Q6 : irobot Scooba that won't power on after being fully charged

· A6 : change the Battery , if not solved there might be a problem with the Power Button

· Q7 : irobot scooba doesn't leave water in the dirty tank after cleaning cycle

· A7 : rinse the four ports on the underside of the tank really thoroughly.

· Q8 : irobot scooba won't come water out , it works but doesn't emit water.

· A8 : Use a drinking straw to blow on the solution valve
          (next to the battery under the tank).

· Q9 : irobot scooba is stuck on check tank indicator

· A9 : Find out the Solution Valve, Tp prime pump,
          fit the end of the included suction bulb over the solution valve.
          Push air through the pump system 3 or 4 times. Keep Scooba's suction bulb.
          If Scooba is not used for 30 days or more,
          you may need to re-prime Sooba's pump.

· Q10 : irobot scooba keeps telling me check tank

· A10 : use water instead of air to prime the pump. 

           Water is more effective. You'll have a little puddle under the robot if you've been successful.
           Then rinse the tank through all four ports on the underside-- one round, two oval, 

           one large and  curved. All four are in a row at the bottom of the transparent area.

           You'll probably  dislodge some clots of debris and sediment.

           Then refill the tank and run the  robot.
