How does the Clean Station Steam+ maintain the mop pads?

The Clean Station automatically washes mop pads using high-temperature steam and water to remove dirt and sanitise them. After washing, it uses 55°C hot air to thoroughly dry the pads, preventing bacterial growth and odours. This entire process happens automatically after each cleaning cycle, ensuring your robot is always ready with clean, dry mop pads for the next use.

What's the difference between the 4 cleaning modes?

Vacuum & Mop Together mode cleans fastest by doing both simultaneously. Mopping after Vacuuming provides the most thorough clean by removing debris first, then mopping. Vacuum-only mode is perfect for carpeted areas or when you only need dust and debris removal. Mop-only mode works well for light cleaning of hard floors or when you've recently vacuumed manually.

How long does the battery last and how does charging work?

The robot provides up to 3 hours of continuous cleaning on a single charge. When the battery runs low, it automatically returns to the Clean Station for recharging. The 14.4V lithium-ion battery charges whilst docked and the robot can resume cleaning from where it left off if the job wasn't completed. The Clean Station handles all charging automatically.

Can I control which rooms get vacuumed versus mopped?

Yes, the SmartThings app allows you to set different cleaning modes for each room. You can designate carpeted areas for vacuum-only cleaning whilst setting hard floors for vacuum and mop or mop-only. Virtual walls and no-go zones let you protect specific areas and you can even mark zones to keep dry if you don't want them mopped.

How does the robot navigate and avoid obstacles?

The upgraded LiDAR sensor provides 36% greater detection distance and 79% wider scanning area compared to previous models. Combined with AI object recognition, it identifies furniture, cables and household items to navigate around them safely. The system works in complete darkness and continuously maps your home for optimal cleaning paths.

What maintenance does the Clean Station require?

The Clean Station has three compartments: fresh water (needs refilling), dirty water (needs emptying) and dust collection (needs emptying). The fresh water tank requires periodic refilling, whilst the dirty water and dust compartments need emptying when full. The system alerts you through the app when maintenance is needed and all compartments are easily removable for cleaning.

How quiet is the robot during operation?

The robot operates quietly enough that you can watch television or make phone calls whilst it's cleaning. The main noise occurs when it returns to the Clean Station to empty waste and refill water, but this process is brief. Many users report it's significantly quieter than other robot vacuums, making it suitable for daytime cleaning even in occupied homes.

What floor types can this robot clean effectively?

The robot works on multiple surface types including carpets, tiles and laminate floors. It automatically adjusts suction power based on floor type and can transition between different surfaces seamlessly. The mop function is designed for hard floors only, whilst the vacuum function works on all floor types. You can customise cleaning modes per room to match your specific flooring.
