About your Braava jet™
Using your Braava jet™
1 Charge & Insert the Battery
- Place the battery into the battery charger and plug the charger into an electrical outlet.
- The indicator light will blink amber while the battery is charging. The light will switch to solid green when the battery is fully charged.
- The wall charger automatically goes into low-power mode when the battery is fully charged to maintain the life of the battery and limit power usage.
- The battery will fully charge within 2 hours. Battery should always be charged for the full 2 hours in between every cleaning cycle for optimal performance.
- Insert the fully charged battery into the robot.
- IRobot also offers additional batteries and chargers as accessories for purchase, so you can always have a charged battery ready to go
2 Select a Braava jet Cleaning Pad
- Choose a cleaning pad that matches how you want to clean your floor. Refer to next page for details.
- Your robot comes with a sample pack of Wet Mopping, Damp Sweeping, and Dry Sweeping Braava jet cleaning pads.
- Braava jet will automatically recognize the pad and adjust its cleaning behavior based on the pad you choose.
Cleaning Tip: Before using a Wet Mopping or Damp Sweeping pad, use a Dry Sweeping pad or vacuum to clean loose debris.
2b Slide in a Cleaning Pad
- Slide a Braava jet pad into the track on the bottom of the robot until it clicks into place.
- You can attach a Braava jet pad from either side of the robot.
Braava jet™ Cleaning Pad Information
OVERVIEW
3 Fill the Robot with Water
- Fill the robot with water if you choose Wet Mop or Damp Sweep.
- Lift the robot handle to find the tank cap and lift and swivel it open.
- To help allow the tank to fill completely, tilt the robot so that the front left corner is pointed downward and the tank opening is highest. Fill slowly with warm water.
- Turn the cap back and close. Lower the robot handle before starting the robot.
- Do not use any other cleaning solution with your robot other than water.
4 Just Press CLEAN
- Place your robot in the lower left corner of the area you want to clean, about a foot away from any walls.
- Press CLEAN once to wake up the robot. Press CLEAN again to start the cleaning cycle. • The robot will clean rooms up to 200 ft2 (20 m2 ) while mopping, and rooms up to 250 ft2 (25 m2 ) while damp or dry sweeping.*
- Braava jet will finish by cleaning the edges and perimeters of your room, furniture, and fixtures.
Note: When it has finished cleaning, Braava jet returns to where it started, powers off and plays a tone.
5 Eject the Cleaning Pad and Prepare Braava jet™ for Next Use
- To eject the cleaning pad without touching the dirt, lift the handle and pull back on the Pad Eject Button.
- Remove the battery and put it in the charger so it can charge for the next cleaning.
- Empty the water tank before storing the robot. • Braava jet can be stored wheelsdown or on its side with the battery side down.
How Braava jet™ Navigates
Braava jet is designed to intelligently navigate and clean rooms up to 200 ft2 (20 m2 ) while wet mopping and up to 250 ft2 (25 m2) while damp and dry sweeping.
- The robot starts by cleaning to the right until it encounters a wall or other barrier.
- When wet mopping or damp sweeping, Braava jet repeats the first line twice to achieve the optimal wetness of the pad before it cleans the rest of the room.
- When the robot has cleaned as far as it can to the right, the robot will continue to the area in front and to the right of where it started.
- The robot will stop cleaning and will return to where it started when the cleaning job is done.
- Braava jet does not spray furniture or walls. Before the robot sprays, it will back up to ensure it’s only spraying a portion of the floor it knows is clear. Lift up floor-length curtains before running Braava jet.
- As Braava jet finds edges, chair legs, and other obstacles, it will clean around them and then return to its original path and resume cleaning.
- Braava jet creates a new map every time it cleans.
Using Virtual Wall® Mode
You can create an invisible barrier with the Virtual Wall® Mode so that the robot will avoid cleaning part of a room or a different floor type.
- Begin with the robot powered off. When placing the robot, note that the invisible line will be created in line with the back of the robot.
- To activate Virtual Wall Mode, start with a powered-off robot and press and hold the CLEAN button until two blue lines appear on the top of the robot. The blue lines will indicate that the Virtual Wall Mode has been activated.
- Once in Virtual Wall Mode, the robot will mark an invisible boundary in its internal map, extending out to each side (see illustration). As the robot cleans your floor, it will not go beyond the invisible line.
- Once the robot is in place, just press CLEAN to start the job.
- Virtual Wall Mode will turn off automatically when the robot completes its job. To manually clear a Virtual Wall Mode cleaning cycle and turn off the robot, press and hold the CLEAN button until all indicators turn off.
Tips for Best Performance
- For best results, use a Dry Sweeping Pad or vacuum to pick up dirt and dust before running your robot with a Wet Mopping or Damp Sweeping Pad.
- Do not presoak cleaning pads before attaching them to the robot. Pads should be dry at the start of a cleaning cycle.
- To pause your robot during a cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button. To resume the cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button again. Do not pick up and move your robot while it is cleaning – the robot will end its cleaning run if you do.
- To turn off your Braava jet, press and hold the CLEAN button for 5 seconds.
- Tilt robot slightly when filling to ensure tank fills completely.
- Only use water inside your robot. Cleaning solutions, even natural ones, can clog the spray nozzle and break down the materials inside the robot.
- Your robot will only run with Braava jet Pads, which are specifically made for the robot.
- Braava jet cleans best on smooth hard surfaces and may not perform as well on uneven tiles, heavily waxed floors or rough surfaces like slate or brick which may snag the cleaning pads.
- Lift up floor-length curtains before running Braava jet.
Troubleshooting
