Important Safety Instructions
• Power Bob OFF and remove him from a power source when you are not using him and before conducting maintenance.
• Do not expose Bob’s SLAM LiDAR to direct sun light
or infrared light.
• Do not let Bob drop. The impact from a drop can
damage the SLAM LiDAR.
• Bob is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless under the close supervision of a person responsible for their safety.
• Do not look directly into the rotating transmitting part
(laser) of the SLAM LiDAR.
• For your safety, do not insert tools, fingers, or other
items into the rotating part of the SLAM LiDAR. • Leaks from the battery cells can occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions. If the liquid gets on the skin, wash quickly with water. If the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes, and seek medical attention.
• Do not attempt to open the charging station.
Repairs on the station should only be carried out by our qualified technicians.
• With the exception of the wet mop attachment, do not immerse any part of Bob into water or other liquids.
• Bob is composed of electronic components that in rare and unintended cases can cause hazards of heating, fire, and other malfunctions. Furthermore, because Bob is capable of autonomous movement, his use poses the risk of collision with property, pets, and persons. Unintended removal of articles
— such as small valuables, jewelry, or hair of persons or pets lying on the floor — may also occur.
• Do not mutilate or incinerate the battery, as it will explode at high temperatures.
• Do not use Bob outdoors.
• Do not store Bob in a car.
• Do not expose Bob or his charging station to temperatures higher than 113° F (45° C), moisture, or humidity.
• If Bob or his charging station has been damaged in any way, do not operate them.
Contact our support team for further assistance.
• Do not dispose of your battery in fire. Old batteries should be recycled safely through your local recycler.
• Do not handle Bob or his charging station with wet hands; use only on dry surfaces.
• Do not let Bob pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
• Do not pull or carry the charging station by the cord, close a door on the cord, or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. To unplug the cord, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not use a broken or damaged adapter.

Getting Started
Who is Bob?
Bob is an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner, at your service! He can vacuum, sweep, and mop all at the same time. Connect Bob to Wi-Fi and use the bObsweep app to schedule a customized cleaning plan for Bob to clean your home, your way.
7
How does Bob find his way around?
Bob uses laser vision, a network of reactionary sensors, and a state-of-theart mapping and localizing technology to detect walls, furniture, and obstacles. As
Bob cleans, he simultaneusly creates a map of the areas he is able to access and clean. Areas where furniture and small items are found are marked on the map.
View the map by clicking the Map Icon on the bObsweep App on your mobile phone.
Using the map, and app’s customization capabilities, Bob efficiently cleans your home over the course of a full cycle — just check his map and his dustbin for the evidence!
Easy Fix
Edit, Personalize, and
Customize Bob’s map, to define room types, cleaning zones, NoSweep

cleaning,and more. Keep Bob away from areas he finds particularly challenging, and create a smart cleaning plan for your floor plan.
Getting Started
Navigating Difficult Obstacles
Unique Furniture
Specialty furniture, such as desk chairs with wheels or stools with circular bases, may confuse Bob momentarily — or he may get stuck on a ledge for a few minutes, and then decide to clean somewhere else. As long as Bob does not display a trouble message, let him continue cleaning and find his own way around. Take note of the areas Bob finds most challenging and, if possible, adjust furniture accordingly.
Dark-Colored
Carpet
If Bob repeatedly backs up or displays a trouble message while cleaning dark carpet, then you’ll need to deactivate the edge sensors. To do so, open the bObsweep app and disable edge detection under
Cleaning Preferences in
Settings .
Just remember that while
Bob’s edge sensors are deactivated, he will not be able to detect edges or stairs !
Shag Carpet
Bob’s main brush is not designed to clean shag carpet or rugs with long fibers and fringes. If you’d like Bob to clean shag carpet or long-fibered rugs, you may remove his main brush and allow him to vacuum without it.
8

FAQs
Bob won’t turn on no matter what I do.
If Bob is not responding to his buttons, then his battery has likely drained too low for him to operate. Place Bob on his charging station and allow him to fully charge. When placing him on the station, leave a small gap between
Bob and the front of the station to ensure perfect alignment.
I want to access Bob’s latest features & keep him up-to-date
Check the App Store/Google Play Store and update the bObsweep app to access the latest features released on the bObsweep app.
Check the Bot Settings page on the bObsweep app and update Bob’s software to access the latest version of Bob’s operating system.
Bob’s not picking up as much as he used to.
Bob will have trouble cleaning if his dustbin is full, or his main brush is clogged or tangled with hair. Remove Bob’s main brush and clean it thoroughly from end to end. Empty
Bob’s dustbin, and remove debris from Bob’s dustbin container and brush compartments to ensure smooth flow of air.
How do I know that Bob is fully charged and ready to clean?
When Bob is charging, the charging indicator pulses. When Bob is fully charged and ready to clean, the charging indicator shines white.
Bob’s having trouble finding his station.
You may need to relocate Bob’s station to a more accessible area. Make sure the station is placed in a centralized area against the wall on a hard, flat surface away from stairs or edges, with plenty of space around it.
Can I pick Bob up?
Picking up and moving Bob during a cleaning session is not recommended, as it can affect his current cleaning cycle/map.
Furthermore, it’s best not to relocate Bob’s charging station once he has mapped his environment.
FAQs
Does Bob work with Google and Alexa devices?
Yes! Bob PetHair SLAM can be connected to
Google and Alexa devices.
For more information, visit: bobsweep.com/slam-support.
Can I make changes to the map
Bob made?
Yes. Bob’s map is fully customizable, and it’s recommended that you review the map
Bob has created and make adjustments/ modifications to the map to make it look the way you like Bob to see and clean your home.
For more information, visit: bobsweep.com/ slam-support.
Bob stopped cleaning and the trouble indicator is flashing.
When Bob is in trouble and needs your help, he will stop during a clean cycle and the trouble indicator blinks. Open the bObsweep app and find the trouble details at the top of the Control page.
Is Bob recording with his camera?
No. Bob does not use a camera to map your home. Instead he uses his SLAM LiDAR sensor to map the layout of your home, he then uses his proprietory software to determine the best cleaning path.
Can I reset Bob’s map/data?
Yes. To reset Bob’s map and get Bob to create a fresh map of his environment, delete the current map.
This can be acheived by erasing map(s) using the bObsweep App, or performing a hard reset on Bob. For more information, visit: bobsweep.com/slam-support.
How can I diagnose Bob’s exact problem?
If Bob is not performing as well as he should, you can diagnose the problem with a Home
Checkup Test. For more information on how to perform the test, visit: bobsweep.com/ slam-support.
