Trouble Shooting

Solution

Mint Plus must be able to encounter the second Cube while cleaning to lock onto
it, so make sure the second Cube is not isolated in an area where Mint Plus cannot
get to it.

Try placing the Cubes with just 15 feet between them to help Mint Plus connect. If
the Cubes are in rooms separated by a hallway, place the Cubes near the entrance
to each room.

Start Mint Plus near one Cube, but facing the other.

Once Mint Plus successfully locks onto both Cubes (one at a time), progressively
move them farther apart for subsequent cleaning cycles (do not move the Cubes
while Mint Plus is cleaning).

Confirm the Cubes in use all have different channels. The channel number can be
found on the bottom of each Cube.

It is normal for Mint Plus to re-clean an area while trying to find its position on the
map.

To help Mint Plus find its position quickly, restart it near the Cube in the same orienta-
tion and location where it originally started.

Mint Plus will clean in the area it is re-started while trying to find its position. If Mint
Plus cannot find the NorthStar signal or its position, it will start a new cleaning cycle
and continue cleaning.

In some cases. Mint Plus may choose to clean another area not yet covered before
returning to the area where it was paused.

If Mint Plus does not successfully lock onto NorthStar and find its position, it will start
a new cleaning cycle.

Mint Plus may still be in Pause mode from a previous cleaning run.

If either the Sweep or Mop button is blinking blue, tap the power button once to get
out of pause mode.
