|
|
Hi,
I bought a new Roomba Discovery SE a couple of weeks ago. The first time I used it, it worked great. Then, I took out the bin and filter to give it a good clean, as it was full of dog fur. When I used it the next time, it didn't pull the fur into the dirt bin, it just blew it out the back of the machine. I took out the filter again to see if I had done something wrong, and the yellow plastic piece that holds the filter broke. I managed to get it and the filter back into the machine, but it still blows the dog fur out the back.
Can anyone help?
Thanks. |

| I am having similar problems all of a sudden. My Roomba is only about 1 month old, and it worked great for the first few weeks. I used it almost daily, always cleaning out the filter and bin, and occasionally cleaning out the brushes. Now it is scooting around like it is working, but doesn't pick up the dirt, or picks it up and blows it back out again. The bin is almost empty.... |

| There is a small slit that gets full of dust bunnies inside the dust bin . Open the "lips" on the blue soft rubber sweeper and clean the slit with a small screwdriver or toothpick and that will take care of dirt blowing out. |
