When Scooba is stuck, the robot will tell you the cause of the problem by
saying “uh-oh” and a number of beeps. Count the beeps after the “uh-oh”
and refer to the table below to determine why Scooba is stuck. Usually,
when the I’m Stuck light comes on, you need to re-start Scooba in another
location.

malfunction (5 beeps)

Inspect Scooba’s drive wheels. Spin the wheels by

hand and confirm that they offer some resistance. If

it does not, or if it’s stuck and you can’t dislodge the

obstruction, contact iRobot customer care.

If the battery’s tabs are not inside the guide holes in the battery pocket,

the tank and robot base may not be properly connected.

illuminates when Scooba’s Clean tank
is empty or the Dirty tank is full. If the
Check Tank is lit and this is not the case,
follow these steps to troubleshoot the
issue.
