Many problems with Verro are caused by a dirty or clogged filter bag. Verro
depends on water flowing freely through the filter bag to operate at peak
efficiency. If the filter bag gets clogged, Verro will not move as well and will
not be able to clean as effectively. The fine filter bag can trap particles as
small as two microns across and can be clogged by particles too small to
see. If rinsing the filter bag by hand with a hose does not solve the problem,
try machine washing it in cold water. Do not use any detergent, fabric
softeners, bleach, or any other additives. Do not machine dry the filter bag.
If you find the filter bag gets clogged too quickly, consider using the mesh bag
instead (mesh filter bags are available separately from www.irobot.com).
Always turn off Verro’s Power Supply and unplug it before troubleshooting
any problem.
