Using the Quick Mapping feature to create a complete cleaning map of your house before the first cleaning cycle is recommended. The robot vacuum will spend a few minutes exploring your entire home and creating a map. During the mapping process, the robot vacuum will not clean the floor.
Quick Mapping: The robot vacuum quickly navigates around the house to explore and create a cleaning map. The path of the robot vacuum is random and does not follow a regular pattern along walls or in a zigzag shape.
To build a map for the first time:
- Activate the robot vacuum while it is on the Auto-Clean Station;
- Open the doors of all the rooms that you want the robot vacuum to clean;
- Remove objects(like wires and toys, etc.) on the floor that may trap/entangle the robot vacuum;
- Do not manually move the robot vacuum during the cleaning process;
- Allow the robot vacuum to return to the station automatically.
You will see a detailed control page after a map has been created successfully. The following image describes each section of this page on the app:
If your X9 Pro failed to save a map after completing a full cleaning cycle, please refer to the following steps for troubleshooting:
- If your house has multiple floors, please ensure you have enabled the "Multi-Map Saving" feature. This feature is disabled by default, preventing the previous floor map from being deleted when the robot vacuum cleans a new floor.
Reminders:
- Remember to move the station to the new floor or area when creating another new map. If it is inconvenient for you to move the station to the new floor, it is suggested to buy an additional station.
- The robot vacuum can save up to 5 valid maps when "Multi-Map Saving" is turned on. The maps are saved both locally on the robot vacuum and on the cloud. If the total number of maps exceeds 5 maps, the app will provide you with the option of either replacing the previous map or not saving the current map.
- Check if the position of the robot vacuum / Auto-Clean Station has been adjusted or if the surroundings have changed. The robot vacuum will try to reposition and remap to match its surroundings. Also, please ensure the robot vacuum starts vacuuming from its station when creating a new map.
We hope you enjoy using your robot vacuum! If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact us for assistance.
