• Lift the robot handle to find the tank cap and lift and swivel it open.
• To help allow the tank to fill completely, tilt the robot so that the front left
corner is pointed downward and the tank opening is highest. Fill slowly with
warm water.
• Turn the cap back and close. Lower the robot handle before starting the
robot.
• Do not use any other cleaning solution with your robot other than water.

about a foot away from any walls.
• Press CLEAN once to wake up the robot. Press CLEAN again to start the
cleaning cycle.

to 250 ft2(25 m2) while damp or dry sweeping.*
• Braava jet will finish by cleaning the edges and perimeters of your
room, furniture, and fixtures.
Note: When it has
finished cleaning, Braava jet
returns to where it started,
powers o and plays a tone.
*Tested in iRobot’s Home Test

How Braava jet™Navigates
*Tested in iRobot’s Home Test Lab on hard floors.
Braava jet is designed to intelligently
navigate and clean rooms up to
200 ft2(20 m2) while wet mopping
and up to 250 ft (25 m) while damp
and dry sweeping.*
• The robot starts by cleaning to the
right until it encounters a wall or other
barrier.
• When wet mopping or damp sweeping,
Braava jet repeats the first line twice to
achieve the optimal wetness of the pad
before it cleans the rest of the room.
• When the robot has cleaned as far as it
can to the right, the robot will continue
to the area in front and to the right of
where it started.
iRobot HOME
• The robot will stop cleaning and will
return to where it started when the
cleaning job is done.
- Braava jet does not spray furniture or
walls. Before the robot sprays, it will
back up to ensure it’s only spraying a
portion of the floor it knows is clear.
Lift up floor-length curtains before
running Braava jet.
• As Braava jet finds edges, chair legs,
and other obstacles, it will clean
around them and then return to its
original path and resume cleaning.
• Braava jet creates a new map every
time it cleans.

Using Virtual Wall®Mode
You can create an invisible barrier with
the Virtual Wall®Mode so that
the robot will avoid cleaning part of
a room or a dierent floor type.
• Begin with the robot powered o.
When placing the robot, note that the
invisible line will be created in line with
the back of the robot.
• To activate Virtual Wall Mode, start with
a powered-o robot and press and
hold the CLEAN button until two blue
lines appear on the top of the robot.
The blue lines will indicate that the
Virtual Wall Mode has been activated.
Cleaning Tip: You can also use Virtual
Wall Mode to divide a larger room into
smaller areas to help Braava jet clean
more eciently.

Tips for Best Performance
• For best results, use a Dry Sweeping Pad or vacuum to pick up dirt and dust
before running your robot with a Wet Mopping or Damp Sweeping Pad.
• Do not presoak cleaning pads before attaching them to the robot. Pads should be
dry at the start of a cleaning cycle.
• To pause your robot during a cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button. To resume the
cleaning cycle, press the CLEAN button again. Do not pick up and move your robot
while it is cleaning – the robot will end its cleaning run if you do.
• To turn o your Braava jet, press and hold the CLEAN button for 5 seconds.
• Tilt robot slightly when filling to ensure tank fills completely.
• Only use water inside your robot. Cleaning solutions, even natural ones, can
clog the spray nozzle and break down the materials inside the robot.
• Your robot will only run with Braava jet Pads, which are specifically made
for the robot.
• Braava jet cleans best on smooth hard surfaces and may not perform as well on
uneven tiles, heavily waxed floors or rough surfaces like slate or brick which may snag
the cleaning pads.
• Lift up floor-length curtains before running Braava jet.
• Once in Virtual Wall Mode, the robot
will mark an invisible boundary in its
internal map, extending out to each
side (see illustration). As the robot
cleans your floor, it will not go beyond
the invisible line.
• Once the robot is in place, just press
CLEAN to start the job.
• Virtual Wall Mode will turn o
automatically when the robot
completes its job. To manually clear
a Virtual Wall Mode cleaning cycle
and turn o the robot, press and hold
the CLEAN button until all indicators
turn o.

Troubleshooting
Repeating Error Messages
If your robot remains on after an error
occurs, press the bumper toward the
body of the robot once to repeat the
message. If your robot has turned o
after an error occurs, press CLEAN to
turn it on. If the error is ongoing, the
robot will repeat the message.
Visit www.global.irobot.com for
additional support.
Rebooting Instructions
For some errors, rebooting Braava jet
may resolve the problem. To reboot
Braava jet, press and hold CLEAN for 5
seconds until you hear an audible tone.
Take out the battery and insert it again.
Press CLEAN again to turn the robot
back on.
Braava jet will tell you something is wrong by alerting you with
sounds and lights. If the problem is not resolved, learn more online
at www.global.irobot.com.
Precision Jet Spray
Troubleshooting
If the robot is not spraying or is spraying
unevenly and you have checked that the
tank has enough water and can hear the
pump running, contact Customer Care.
Water Level Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems with the
amount of water Braava jet uses on your
floors in wet mopping or damp sweeping
modes, download the iRobot®HOME App
to adjust your robot’s settings.
Regular Robot Care
Cleaning the Cli Sensors and
Pad Reader
Clean the sensors on the bottom of your
robot with a damp cloth.
Cleaning the Wheels
Pull o any visible debris or hair that
gathers around the wheels.
Cleaning the Body of the Robot
Use a damp cloth to lightly wipe o any
dirt on its body or bumper.

Follow these tips to keep your iRobot Braava jet running at peak
performance. See the About your Braava jet™ section for
reference, as needed.
*Tested in washing machine. Do not wash
with delicates.
Cleaning the Tank
If you notice an odour in the tank, fill
the tank with hot tap water. Do not use
boiling water. Close the cap and lightly
shake the robot. Rinse the tank and
repeat. Allow the tank to dry with the cap
open before using your robot.
Caring for Washable
Cleaning Pads
Braava jet Washable pads can
be washed up to 50 times* before
replacing. Hand washing and air drying
