10 iRobot Roomba 500 Series

Battery Storage and Charging

TIP: For best performance, always store Roomba’s battery in Roomba

with Roomba plugged in or on the Home Base. Charge Roomba’s battery

overnight for the ﬁrst charge.

Battery Life

To extend the battery life, iRobot recommends always storing Roomba

plugged in. For more details on how to maintain Roomba’s battery life,

visit www.irobot.com.

Tip: If Roomba’s battery is warm, Roomba will wait for the battery to cool down

before beginning a charge cycle.

Tip: For long term storage, iRobot recommends that the battery be fully charged

and then removed from the robot and stored in a cool, dry place.

Cleaning Time

You should fully charge Roomba’s battery before each cleaning cycle. When

fully charged, Roomba’s battery will last for at least one full clean cycle.

16 Hour Refresh Charge

When charging for the ﬁrst time, or if Roomba has been left off the charger

for a long time, Roomba will initiate a special 16-hour charge cycle. This

extended charge refreshes Roomba’s battery and extends the life of

the battery. Roomba’s clean light will pulse quickly during the 16 hour

refresh charge.

Roomba is powered by a Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)

rechargeable battery. If maintained in good condition and in

accordance with the instruction manual, Roomba’s battery

lasts for hundreds of cleaning cycles.
