iRobot Roomba Professional Series
Cleaning Modes
Roomba has four cleaning modes. Roomba will change its cleaning
method based on the cleaning mode you select.
Clean Mode
Roomba automatically calculates the room size and adjusts its cleaning
time appropriately.
Spot Mode
Roomba will spiral approximately three feet in diameter and then spiral
back to where it started, intensely cleaning a localized area.
Max Mode
For effective cleaning in extra large areas. Use Max Mode for larger
rooms, or areas that need to be cleaned more thoroughly. In Max Mode
Roomba will clean in a single room for as long as the battery will allow.
Scheduled Cleaning Mode
When a future cleaning time is programmed, Roomba enters Scheduled
Cleaning Mode. When scheduled to clean, Roomba will occasionally
flash its next cleaning time to remind you of its schedule. At the specified
time, Roomba leaves its Home Base, cleans, and then returns to the
Home Base to recharge when it’s done.
TIP: Roomba takes approximately 25 minutes to clean an average room and
will pass over the same area of the floor multiple times to ensure total
floor coverage. Roomba automatically calculates the room size and
adjusts its cleaning time appropriately.
TIP: The first time Roomba runs in Max Mode it may run until the end of the
battery charge. Roomba does this intentionally to learn the capacity
life of the battery. Once this learning is complete, Roomba will be able
to make it’s way back to the home base before the battery dies the next
time it runs in Max Mode.
