When to Call a Professional
Contact Roborock support if Error 11 persists after removing all magnetic sources and the vacuum stops in areas with no apparent magnetic interference. This could indicate a faulty magnetic sensor that requires professional diagnosis.Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Roborock keep showing Error 11?
Error 11 appears when your Roborock detects a magnetic field from virtual walls, magnetic barrier strips, or other magnetic objects. Check for and remove any unwanted magnetic barriers or household magnets near the vacuum's path.
Can I disable the magnetic field sensor on my Roborock?
No, you cannot disable the magnetic field sensor as it's a safety feature. Instead, remove or relocate the magnetic sources causing the interference, or adjust your virtual wall settings in the Roborock app.
What household items can trigger Roborock Error 11?
Common household items that can trigger Error 11 include magnetic toys, speaker magnets, magnetic phone mounts, magnetic cabinet latches, magnetic knife strips, and any strong magnets that may have fallen near the floor.
How do I know if my virtual wall device is working?
When your Roborock encounters an active virtual wall, it will stop and display Error 11, indicating the magnetic barrier is working correctly. You can test this by placing the virtual wall device in the vacuum's path.
Can Error 11 damage my Roborock vacuum?
No, Error 11 is a protective feature and will not damage your Roborock. The vacuum simply stops when it detects a magnetic field to prevent it from entering restricted areas or potentially harmful magnetic environments.
