Using Your RoboVac
Important Tips Before Use
A. Remove power cords and small objects from the floor that may entangle RoboVac. You can use the supplied cable ties to organize your wires and power cords.
B. Fold tasseled edges of area rugs underneath to prevent tangling RoboVac. Avoid cleaning very dark-colored high-pile rugs or rugs thicker than 1.02 in/26 mm as they may cause RoboVac to malfunction.
C. Keep RoboVac away from spaces lower than 2.87 in/73 mm to prevent RoboVac from getting stuck. If necessary, place a physical barrier to block off the problem areas.
D. Keep RoboVac away from wet areas.
E. RoboVac may climb on top of objects less than 0.63 in/16 mm in height. Remove these objects if possible.
F. Anti-drop sensors will prevent RoboVac from tumbling down stairs and steep drops in most cases. Sensors are less effective if dirty or used on carpeted/reflective/very dark-colored floors. It is recommended to apply the Boundary Strip(s) to block off areas where RoboVac may fall.
Place physical barriers or Boundary Strips in front of fireplaces and areas that may cause damage to RoboVac if entered. |
Preparation
- Remove the foam blocks beside the bumper before use.
- Install the side brush before use.
- Turn on the main power switch at the right side of RoboVac.
- Place the Charging Base on a level surface and against a wall.
- Remove objects within 3 ft/1 m of the left and right side and within 6 ft/2 m of the front of the Charging Base. If you cannot remove the objects, check whether RoboVac can return to the Charging Base normally; if not, contact eufy customer service for help.
- Connect the round connector of the adapter into the power socket on the Charging Base and the other end into a wall outlet.
► When the Charging Base connects to AC power, the LED indicator on the Charging Base is SOLID WHITE.
|
Charge Your RoboVac
- RoboVac has a pre-installed rechargeable battery that has to be fully charged before use.
- RoboVac returns to the Charging Base at the end of a cleaning cycle or when its battery is running low.
Method 1: Attach RoboVac to the Charging Base by aligning its charging pins with the charging pins on the base.
Method 2: Pres on the body to return RoboVac to the Charging Base.

Select BoostlQ™ feature
In the EufyHome app, select the BoostlQ™ feature according to your needs. While cleaning at standard suction power level, RoboVac will automatically increase the suction power if it detects that stronger power is needed to ensure the best clean.
BoostlQ™ is ideal for cleaning thicker carpets and hard-to-sweep messes, which will reduce the total cleaning time, but increase the noise level. If the vacuuming noise caused by BoostlQ™ disturbs you, you can disable this feature.
Use the Boundary Strip
With the Boundary Strip, you can keep RoboVac away from any area or item you do not want RoboVac to clean. RoboVac will recognize the Boundary Strip and will not cross into the blocked-off area.
- Identify the area or item you do not want RoboVac to get close to.
- If necessary, use scissors to cut the Boundary Strip to a shorter length. Be sure to correctly measure the length before cutting.
- Apply the supplied strips of adhesive tape to lay the Boundary Strip flat on the floor. Make sure the strip is placed FLAT on the floor or under an area rug.
