How can I prevent Roomba from getting stuck?
When Roomba gets into a tight spot, it will usually find its way out. We recommend that you watch Roomba the first couple of times you use it, so you can see if there are areas where it gets stuck, and move things as needed. Because Roomba lightly contacts walls and other objects as it cleans, remove any light items that may be pushed or knocked over. Of course, you will get better results if you clear the floor of any loose items before cleaning, just as you would if you were using a traditional upright vacuum. A Note About Rugs Roomba is not designed for cleaning deep-pile carpet, shag carpet, or rugs with long tassels or a fringe longer than an inch.
